I recently added a Colt 6920 to my collection, so am now thinking about selling one of my other ARs to free up some vault space/cash. The other two are a Bushmaster 16" Patrol Carbine and a 20" Colt MT 6700. The Colt is a late 90s model, so fixed stock, large pins, no FH, no bayonet lug. I certainly like the idea of two Colts, but the parts incompatibility is a bit of a sticking point.
Which would you get rid off? Thanks, Mike |

I would sell both and buy something else.. Definitely an option. Suggestions for a nice replacement that would go well with the 6920 are always appreciated. Mike 11.5" SBR, 18" SPR, or 24" Varmint/Bench. Depends on what kind of shooting you like to do. It might be cheaper to sell parts off the Bushmaster and replace them with whatever is more appropriate. |

I'd sell the bushy first since the 6920 can replace it.
as for the other Pony... Colt barrels are usually great in my experience... you can keep it and build a SPR style rifle or replace the original barrel with a M16 one and build a M16A4 clone but the parts incompatibility is a bit of a sticking point
if the only large pins of that 6700 are the FCG ones then it's not an issue IMHO. |

sell the bushys and the older colt........get another 6920, stick the rest of the money in your safe. Backups are always good. A little boring, but good. Having 2 6920s might be nice. I've also thought about adding a .308 AR, but obviously, that throws compatibility and redundancy out the window. It also seems to enter a whole new realm of crazy in terms of cost. Mike |
