Can you build a defensive collection for 500? Couple years ago I decided to try to build a budget arsenal for less than 500. I built this AR for $346 waiting for black friday and accepting any free stuff I could get from friends. The carry handle and forearm were free and the mag was 6 bucks. After that I bought a S&W 9mm sigma for $180 and a Mossberg 500 that was beat to hell and needed a safety for 50 bucks from a local pawn shop. Total cost was 576. Have/could you do that?
That's extremely good for a poorfag budget setup. Especially the Mossberg. Does everything work properly?
Also have you done the Sigma trigger mod?
A $350 AR plus a Hi-Point is adequate for a defensive arsenal, as is a $200 Maverick 88 plus a $300 Bersa Thunder.

Well done, anon.
>Have/could you do that?
No. I bought my AR and desu i'm still learning a lot and have a ways to go. Eventually I would like to do a build for fun. Cool you did this 'poorfag challenge' and came in only $76 over.

I have since replaced the safety and it got a coat of spray paint but yes it functions completely. It was 50 bucks well spent.
Sigma is stock condition.

that rifle eventually got built into something completely different and then eventually sold. But it was fun nonetheless.

You could have paid $4 more for a 16" 1/8 midlength nitride barrel and BCG, tactical charging handle and milspec carbine lower.
Wouldn't have had to jew the handguard, still would have needed the carry handle though.
4th of July sales. Wonder what the next major sale will hold.
Currently, you can add an SCCY CPX-2 for $169. Or the Taurus TCP for $139.
surplus CZ from buds $300
Surplus Remington 870 - Police shotgun from SOG -$250
Fifty higher than OP, but better quality than hi-points.

This was done some time back and I didn't have an option if I was to keep the build as low as possible. I bought the complete upper off a friend.

I feel ya. Just wanted to point out what was recently available.
I got a cheap H&R pardner protector pump for $50. Love poorfag shit.
This is my poorfag arsenal

It's called getting a carry pistol and a handheld flashlight. Can't call for a time out when there's someone walking up to you aggressively with a knife in their hand because you forgot your AR15 inside your trunk.
