Palmetto State Armory used to have real real cheap AR kits back in 2017-2019. It seems like gun manufacturers massively overproduced out of fear that Hillary would win, but Trump left the market flooded and you could find parts kits for as low as $250. Throw on a $25 lower and a cheap sight, and there's your $300 rifle.
This was a couple years ago though and now similar kits are closer to $500-600 and lowers around $50-60.
What's a chime kit? 3d printing can save you the cost of a lower and the bother of dealing with a FFL/background check, but I'd be real nervous printing anything but that and maybe furniture.
I'm not going to link it for obvious reasons, but I definitely recommend looking up the Floral Goodtimes Chime kit, which is one I'm particularly interested in. There are other kits similar to that for other projects.
That's what's weird to me. It would be legal to sell these kits as gun parts kits in America - there's no need for the "chimes" thing. Silencers are "solvent traps" because you can't just sell silencers online. The FGC-9 as chimes makes more sense in jurisdictions where they actually have gun control.
It's cool to see how far 3d printed guns have come though. I think I kind of want one.

So, probably the best bet for going cheap is gonna be 3d printed with one of those "chime" kits online, after all?

Huh, just read up on the FGC9. That's pretty neat. Here in America we can just buy guns/gun kits though.
The "chimes" thing is really cute and reminds me of how here we call our silencer kits "solvent traps".
That is actually a US company. It's labeled that way for much the same reason as the solvent traps.

My understanding is that it's done that way for ghost gun reasons.
