Two sets of Colt 6 hole skinny hand guards. I believe they’re circa 2000?
Wanting to offload them but don’t know what a fair value would be for both seller and buyer.

I've been considering moving some of my collection to buy a third vehicle (don't worry, it's collectible too).
Thoughts on value for a Puerto Rican 601 kit built on Nodak 601 lower? OG green stock and grip, all original stuff save later no-drain hole hg's painted by John Thomas?   Also have a second rifle.... Nodak 601 lower with original brown 601 furniture (stock, grip and handguard). The upper is a VP marked 1:12 early 603 (cast FSB). Repro Edgewater buffer by JT as well. Only the furniture is original 601 on this one.

Starting to move away from a few retro's I've built over the years. This is not a fire sale, I'm patient. First item will be my Colt Clone Model 605 sold as a parts kit. John Thomas pinned/welded 3 prong FH using my NOS Colt 1/12 Chrome lined barrel w/front sight base having Bell & C that was previously cut I assume for a Dissapator rifle (I have pictures of it new). Upper is a NoDak Slick side upper with USGI sights & dust cover. USGI charging handle. Bolt Carrier Group is a slick side Fulton-Armory. Bolt Carrier is chrome, bolt is blued marked HPT/MPI. Under 300rds for sure since building it in 2015/16.
Type D stock, A1 Hand guards with drain holes, A1 grip. All USGI. Lower parts kit is all USGI Colt Full-Auto that I "neutured" ie Hammer, Selector. All lower pins, safety have been dimpled (not shown in earlier built picture) also by John Thomas to resemble early M16 series. USGI Standard Buffer, Spring & Extension Tube. And a Nylon "seat belt" sling. All you need is a stripped lower and you're good to go. Any questions IM or email me for a more accurate description. Not sure to part out by piece or as a parts kit? The lower receiver is NOT part of this sale. Just for a complete look at rifle. Thanks for the help.

Sell the furniture, buffer/tube/spring, and your lower parts kit as sets. You'll get more money, more views, and faster sales by parting it out. |

Not sure if this is the right place for it considering it's ammo, but it is retro 5.56. And I don't really stray out of retro into the other forums (besides GD).
I've got 1600 boxed rounds and maybe 300 loose. It's all mid to late 70's Lake City. Not on stripper clips sadly. Some boxes have been chewed on a bit. Not many. Any idea what it might be worth? I'm assuming not much, but I'm not going to use it and not sure what to list it for. Thanks.

I lucked into mine years ago for $150 with a FSB but would say a stripped one in todays market maybe $300-$500 tops. |

That's definitely a Colt A2 upper receiver, it's marked C MB for Colt Mueller Brass.... I've seen pristine examples sell for $350 and possibly more, however this isn't pristine. I'd be happy scoring that upper for $200 or less but wouldn't be surprised to see a seller ask $275 - $300 for it, in the EE it would be a quick sale at $250 obo.
