I have a chance to pickup a SSR-85c2 for about $1800. Would you jump on it or pass. I don’t know a lot about these rifles and would like some input.

Pass

Curious myself... In for replies. Don’t know much about this variant.

 

[zerocool]

Pass

Why is that?

Whose the importer ? TGI, or Armory USA, or other ?

ISD‘s build quality became hit-miss after the loss of Armory USA‘s/Global Trades oversight.

Regardless, $1800 seems high considering the comparable new Zpap M70 for $999-1300 (depending on furniture).

SSR 85 c2 were t3 Bulgarian barrels on thick ISD receivers but not RPK trunnions (that you’d otherwise get on the Zpap M70).

Hard pass. It's a mutt. There's nothing wrong with mutts, but they don't command a premium over other current factory built options.

Had one from Armory USA...they were put together with used type 3 barrels (mostly Bulgy but there were some Polish) on a 1.5mm Armory receiver...the one I had had a bad barrel, at 50 yrds I could hit a 2' square piece of card board and that was about as accurate as it would get...you might want to check the rifling and how much of a bullet it swallows...and yup, they were a mutt...there are a lot of other variants out there that I'd get for that kinda money long before I'd consider one of these...

They're honestly $800 rifles at best. Some are nice, but others not so much.
