Nice, but I'd change the grip and trigger....making it WAY above the price point for me...

 

[trader]

saw that - ya pricey for what you get

I'd change the stock and probably the sights as well.

 

[Bassbob]

It does have Ambi bolt catch and safety.

Find a nice Colt LE 6920 or 6940 from years ago used or NIB and get a better rifle

Yeas, but I'm not a leftie...don't care about ambition-anything.

I built a much nicer rifle than this for around $1200.

If I'm dropping 2k on an AR-15 I'll drop 3k on a Noveske.

True
Then why try for this new Colt ?

Sarcasm brother. I also don't care and don't have any ambi controls on any of mine.

I'm not. It came across my email today and I was just making conversation. Thought some of you gun nuts might find it interesting.

Im a leftie
Overcome and adapt

If Minnesota Fats can whoop ass with a bent pool cue, folks can learn to overcome a rifle . Look at all the millions of POS AK’s that have killed for decades

 

[Sld1959]

Ambi might be a big selling point for me. Have been working more on shooting my natural dominant side, left handed. Still better right handed but lefties catching up.

Not that i have any left handed long guns but it still might be a selling point.

gun nuts

Certainly, nobody on this site.

I helped list guns in Gunbroker at A store/range I use to teach at. We have a Colt connection and get a ton of their stuff. I listed a bunch of these at the tail end of the pandemic during 2022 and they were not selling hardly at all. We sold more in store than on line and that was not much.

Not sure why other than price compared to the 6920 or even other makes of AR’s.

Even if I had the choice of one for free I’d probably go for something else. And an ambi controls on an AR would be sighing if change as I don’t like them myself

That’s just me though

Hard to beat that price for sure. Anderson makes decent stuff. I have a few I built with their lower receivers.

I just noticed the autocorrect, sorry and good of you to catch it and ignore it. I'm usually more careful. Mighta had an Old Forester in me during that post.

 

[NMEDGE]

Way too much money. I guess they think the Colt name is worth it.
