A guy at work tells me he has a Colt AR15 that he aquired from a Uncle that had recently passed. And he asks me what one would be worth and would I want to buy it? So I ask him what model is it? And he says he has no idea but if I want it I can give him what ever I think it is worth or sell it for him. He says he has no need for it? He said he would bring it tommorrow.

Obviously you'll want to figure what model/year it is, and more importantly what condition it's in(barrel, BCG, etc).  You can always take pictures and post them up here so the other blokes can help you.

As far as buying it, it sounds like this guy dosen't know much, if anything about AR-15.  I would say, be honest with the price your willing to pay, and don't flip this bloke a quarter for his dead uncles rifle, you know?


Do you already own a Colt of some sort?  If not, I'll just add that I recently picked up a 6920, and am enjoying it thoroughly

I do not own or know much about a colt nor have I ever. I have a cmmg, and a smith & wesson M&PT ,and a bushmaster, and a stag. I will accept any input on how to recogonize good colt.

I don't want you to rip him off, but tell him all you can afford is $400, and see if he wants to talk you up some?





all i can say is i picked up my MT6601 for $400 about 3 years ago
