What would be the top range.....assuming all info is accurate and it really only has 500 rounds through itt? Would $900 be too much?
I wouldn't pay that for it....but I'm also not familiar with that specific model |

Get the factory Colt hand guard and stock if the guy still has them. Make sure nothing is Bubba'd.

I paid 700 for mine...bear in mind there are versions with the sear block and versions without. I would pay less for one with the block since the bolt carrier is unique and not interchangeable with any other ar part.
also, the front pin is typically a screw and can be larger than a regular takedown pin (to prevent a standard upper fitting) lastly, the fcg pins can also be larger I have a postban NJ compliant a2 model..it's very accurate |

More of a collectible, especially for those looking for an A2-ish rifle. 1/9 limits you to lighter bullets, and really the only thing 'special' about them is a fatter profile barrel. Unless it's beat to snot (shouldn't be at only 500 rounds) I'd say $900 is fair for an HBAR I too would want the Colt forend and buttstock. |

I forget the model # but I think Colt only made one 1/9" 20" rifle. It is not chrome lined, and it is ban-era style with no threaded muzzle or bayonet lug. My buddy has one and it is extremely accurate. If the guy is new to ARs, he might be disappointed down the road when he can't add a flash hider. |

I traded mine for a Sig p226 and a Sig p229, both in excellent condition.
The rifle was accurate for what it was, but kind of the worst of all worlds in many ways. |

Good score for your buddy. I paid more than $700 for mine (but not by much). It's a 1997 LE6700 Competition HBAR with all the evil features.
