I have one of the last few 18" LWRC REPR's, it's all tricked out for the DMR role. I know the accessories value(s) but has it been out of production long enough now to warrant any "premium"? I love the way it shoots, it shoots ragged .30 cal holes at 100yds with EASE....but I'm getting older and it's HEAVY. Thinking of selling it but in no kind of hurry. Round Count is 86, it's factory OD Green CeraKote, Magpul UBR and MIAD grip from factory.

  For the folks like me who didn't have a clue what a LWRC REPR is?

  Are you asking how much this is worth? (You could have just said that! [;)] )
  
  Recently completed auctions for LWRC REPR rifles have run from around $2600-$4000, depending on exact variant, and what bells and whistles come with the gun.
  
  As some basis for comparison, there are plenty of 16 and 20" listed for sale, so the guns themselves aren't super scarce. Asking price for new ones of these is around $3400. There is one 18" one listed for about $3200, and this one has been listed and relisted for quite a while with no bids (which tells you that the asking price isn't all that attractive). A new in box 16" OD Green one with spiral barrel and nice aftermarket brake recently sold for $2900.
  
  I don't really think an 18" bbl adds much value over a 16 or 20" one (ie if that barrel length were desirable/popular, they wouldn't be so scarce). Since yours is used, and assuming you actually wanted it to move, I'd ballpark yours at maybe $3000, give or take a bit.
  
  If you're in "no hurry" you could ask for a little more. . .if you want the thing sold "for sure", put it at auction starting at one cent. It would definitely sell, and likely for true market value. I'd be surprised if you got LESS than $2800 for it listing that way. Hell, I'd start you right off at a bid of $2000 sight unseen just to get it going! [:p]
