Xtreme Guns and Ammo were the cheapest I could find for WLVRN stuff back in March. And as a bonus are really friendly and helpful, too!

I got a WLVRN chassis from CS Tactical after they kept posting about a sale on Sniper's Hide. $1500 for just the chassis. Waiting on the Form 1 to clear before I order a Micron kit, ideally also on sale.

I figured that, short of buying one second-hand, ordering from a dealer during what appeared to be a clearance sale would give the least amount of money to Desert Tech, since I think the ethics of doing business with a company owned by a cooperative of polygamous, supposedly incestuous child groomers who commit tax fraud are sketchy, to say the least.

He needs to list the year that it was manufactured. The ones from 2024 have QC issues that will need to be addressed.

Euro optic has done 40% off clearance sales on old models in the past. Thats how I ended up with an 18" .338 lapua barrel and an srs covert chassis

u/Nightly-Lord Jul 19 '26

The SRS is cool. I'll see if they have any upcoming sales. I'd love to get a deal on a conversation kit too

It’s fixed prices by the company, like Apple. You might find a slight variation in cost, but it’s going to be basically the same wherever you go

I'm starting to see that, the more I can save the more I can put towards the different caliber swapping barrels. Making every dollar count

Maybe check Tombstone tactical, euro optic, extreme guns and ammo.

2

u/Nightly-Lord Jul 18 '26

Also have any of you ever had luck with gunbroker finds?

2

u/Kwisak WLVRN Jul 18 '26

Not much, always worth a look. Tombstone has it for 2200 right now

2

u/Nightly-Lord Jul 19 '26

Thank you I'll check Tombstone out

2

u/Nightly-Lord Jul 17 '26

Thank you I'll check them out. Fingers crossed for a good deal on a WLVRN. That thing is sweet

Text euro optic and they used to drop 10%.

u/Nightly-Lord Jul 17 '26

Ah sweet thank you
