Ar low -high end?

[Tommyh]

I was offered a 6920 SOCOM by a dealer for $1,750 shipped but passed. He is going to call me when he gets another 6920 Magpul and I'll probably grab it when he calls. I'll have one to shoot and one to keep in the safe.

I just sold a Oly bull barrel three weeks ago. I had it for probably 6 years and never had an issue. Ran 1500 rounds through it over that time period and never a FTF or FTE. Took the money from that and bought an Armalite AR15 to match my Armalite AR10.

I recently bought a POF 308 from someone here but no one ever lists them even though they are top notch - I guess because there aren't as many of them made.

Now that the ban looks like it isn't going any where, I'd wait for the right deal. In the next 3-4 months you will see prices drop. There will also be people looking to dump the AR they bought in the craze because they don't really need/want it. Others will be strapped for cash and sell at the new lower market level. I would start buying mags if you find them at a good price because that is one thing that I think the Anti's may slide past within another bill.

Rob compiled this listing a while back, and the ones listed are the ones who answered his inquiries or had the info pasted on their web pages. some cared not to partake in the discussion and were left off.

I have been looking all night for the past couple nights. I find them for 1k-1200. that is the m4 style or bull barrel. im looking for a tactical/self defense. there running about 1500 with some rounds and maybe a mag or 2. if your lucky they have flip up sights.
the ones im looking at are all mid-low range on the list above. m&p, spikes, cmmg, dpms, some rock river. just have to look hard and have cash in hand.

hope to add to my collection soon.

Where are finding those prices? Are they fro pre-Obama gun control agenda?

From what I have seen this past month $1700 is a good price for a Colt 6920 I haven't seen one for under $2000. I would grab one for that price but I have a 6920 with magpul furniture already in the safe. She's the queen as of now. I also have a Rock River LAR-15 custom, (was set up as a yote killer) that is older and very accurate and a dream to shoot. I luv em both.

That list is supposed to support Colt being th best. Some of the items that are list are not exactly needed. M16 bolt? Or can be added as an aftermarket piece and you still won't spend what the colt cost

think so?

6920 colt = 1175. is THE standard and meets ALL criteria for battle rifle use set forth by the govt.

dpms = 825 +cost of sub par bbl replacement(295 up), plus cost of auto BCG(165), plus any magpul furniture you want to put on it. add into that of a better trigger (65 and up).

keep in mind this list is for people who want quality, precision, and life dependent gear. they are built properly, staked properly, QCed properly, and guaranteed. if your life isnt going to have to be placed in its care, then shoot what you want.

I had been looking into the colt 6920 pre craze....

Right now Im gonna wait.

But if they get back down to reasonable or if I find a good deal I may snag one just to set on in the safe.

Yep. That's what I think. You feel different and that is cool by me. I am saying in my opinion, for the average guy, does a m16 bolt or h buffer really affect the proper function of their rifle. I don't believe it does, but I could be wrong.

My stock Rockiver never had an issue and my competition rock rivers run great too, and they run in high stress situations.

With all the different ARs out there and what most people are going to use them for, I feel there is a better way to spend money.

The flaw in that logic is, when people aren't being stupid, a Colt doesn't cost that much more (about $200) than some of the lesser rifles out there, and in some cases less than others that still don't meet TDP.

So where does the SR556 fall on that chart?
