Duh! U should keep the Detonics as it is an appreciating asset while the Colt AR is a depreciating one. Also the S&W' 41's seem to be hot at the moment and are climbing. Lots of 41's around but not so many Detonics... I likeee the old High Standards.

So the question to ask yerself is what do ya have in the Detonics? Do ya really need to trade it? The money in it ain't goin anywhere..you can always get it out if needed.

Buy a used AR...Novoskes are primo...BCM's are kool. SR 15's are beothchin. U might say these are carriage trade hardware.

Or U can buy a Kalashnikov 47...Arsenal makes em right here in LV....milled receivers side folders are da bomb... they only make a few at a time and they go fast.
