    First off, get the overall barrel length. If its under 16" total, you will néed an NFA form-1 before you can legally own that. Suppressor length will ONLY count towards barrel length if it is PERMANENTLY welded on to the barrel. If it can be unscrewed, if does NOT count.

    That being said:

    Rifle $800-900
    Magpul stuff, magazines included. $150
    Light set up. $120
    BCM c/h. $45
    100 rd drum. $75
    Bipod. $35
    Mag coupler. $12
    Hard case. $30-200 depending on brand
    Suppressor. $ 30-300 if its real, maybe more.

    Fake or not, that barrel looks to be less then "16 making it an SBR, still NFA.

    **doesn't look to be, it is less then "16.**

    Yes, be VERY careful with that. No way that is 16", which makes it NFA regulated. Do not buy or trade for that firearm unless you confirm how that fake can is attached, and that the OAL of the barrel + fake can is 16"+.

    flip up magpul front sight, with a fixed A2 front sight..... oooooook

    Oh dang I looked RIGHT at that, noticed both sights but it didn't click!

    Now, seeing that tells me the guy who built this does NOT:

    1 know WTF he is doing

    2 have an NFA license for that rifle

    Which means you should:

    3 avoid this rifle at all costs

    Besides, I am not a big fan of mag couplers, they give me the impression of being cheap, cliche and very Hollywoodish. They make it impossible to carry in any type of molle pouch and leave rounds exposed on the mag not in use. If a mag is left loaded for too long a time, the spring/rounds put pressure on the mag lips and can lead to FTF issues, that is one of the reasons magpul makes a dust cover to cap off loaded mags.
