I am not sure FN made a large one. The sling is GI surplus, as is the stock. The lower is the corrected BCP and marked m16a2. The LPK is aero precision.

Hey guys, I'm cleaning out my gun closet and found an FN made M16A2 barrel assembly that I forgot I had. Does anyone have any thoughts as to what it might be worth? I guess someone trying to build an A2, or FN A4 clone might be interested. https://imgur.com/a/o0zWIVW Thanks, Steve |

Ideas? $?
Colt A2 GOVT CARBINE RESTRICTED Stamped lower N1 buttstock. Stock has some small wear. Receiver and parts are mint Lower has only been fired 20ish rounds. More hand cycling than live fire LOL Looking to possibly sell to help family member out with medical bills |

What's the current going rate for a used, LE-marked 6520? It's got a little wear on the high spots but it hasn't been tossed down the driveway. I know most people here don't like the LE-markings, but some people collect the things. This pic isn't of mine but it looks just like it. Attached File |

LEO markings may or may not be important to some. |

Any opinions on the value of this C7 A2 upper? Might be going on the EE, soon. This upper was also used on Model 711/715 rifles, Model 723 M16A2 carbines, and Model 733 Commandos.

A stock riser, a Tasco scope and the carry handle mount from my Delta clone. The rubber caps on the adjustment turrets seems to have torn/failed along the rim of the cap as shown by the pen lifting the edge. I have also started a thread on 2 slings i found packed with the riser and will add them to this appraisal thread once i have more info on them.      |

Clearing out some old boxes from my parents garage and found an aimpoint 3000 in the box with the mount lens cover and a mount. Original box with the instruction manual. This is a period correct aimpoint during operation gothic serpent? Is this a sought after piece? Whats it worth these days? |

From what I have read the 5000 was more common in Somolia but the 3000 was used as well. They go for decent money. Silver one on eBay for $495, but it hasn't sold, so it's probably too high. https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_nkw=Aimpoint+3000&_in_kw=1&_ex_kw=&_sacat=0&LH_Sold=1&_udlo=&_udhi=&_samilow=&_samihi=&_sadis=15&_stpos=02186&_sargn=-1%26saslc%3D1&_salic=1&_sop=12&_dmd=1&_ipg=60&LH_Complete=1&_fosrp=1 |

Looking for a rough estimate on a 2011 Colt LE6520. It's marked LE/MIL restricted but not a LE trade-in. It's in great shape, with just a few marks here and there. Round count is around 200. It has the large FCG pins, no sear-block, and a semi-auto half-moon BCG. No box, but I have the sealed accesory pack with two twenty rounders. It has B5 CAR stock in the photos, but I also have the original M4 stock.

Colt Model 6922 complete upper with 1/9 twist barrel. Slowly leaving retro black rifles since I've been into retirement a few years now. Pursuing different endeavors now. Wanting a fair appraisal request for my complete Colt Model 6922 upper with 1/9 twist. Purchased new (original box long gone) in 2001/02 from Delton. Condition excellent, safe kept. Detachable carry handle, AR-15 semi-auto Bolt Carrier Group, 1/9 barrel twist. All original Colt. Upper has Colt C & Alcoa forge markings. Round count around 600rds? The pictures I'm showing are at least 5 years ago so not the greatest. I've found that Colt did not make but between 500-1,000 of these 6922 with the 1/9 twist? A short run for LE request was best answer I could find. I don't like to use the word RARE, but they are SCARCE finding ones. Especially in Excellent condition. I appreciate the feedback.

I bought a used Colt 6520 upper. It came with a standard Colt carrier group, but with a chrome bolt. I'm not seeing any markings to confirm the bolt is Colt but don't know where/what to look for. How would I confirm that it's a Colt bolt and how much would it be worth? |

I know FN A2 uppers with 20" barrels, non-F-marked FSB's, rifle-cut extensions and rifle receivers are a bit scarce these days. So, any idea what this one might be worth? In the pic of the receiver extension, you might be able to see that there is still some of the original packing grease in it. The BCG is unmarked, other than MPI on the bolt and is unfired. I don't know that the BCG is an FN original and could be a PSA premium BCG. Attached File Attached File Attached File Attached File Attached File |

What is a "fair to both parties" price for A2 Stocks? Paladin $50 I believe is the fair valuation of these as well, although you could probably get around $60-$80 on the EE to the right person if you are patient and you individually photograph and document the condition of each. |

Not sure of the manufacturer of this upper receiver & barrel. It was bought new from a dealer in 1999. Came attached to a PWA lower receiver. Perhaps its a Wilson barrel? Round count is under 2,000. Slight rust on exposed barrel near muzzle brake. 20" heavy barrel 1/8 twist FSB is marked: D98 (R1) 2 (the R1 is actually in a circle) barrel is marked under handguards with: SS W 1/8 No markings on upper.

Any idea as far as value on these handguards? There are three sets. Two sets factory sealed, one set opened. Attached File Attached File Attached File |
| Trying to gauge value in this rifle, it is a Pre Ban Govt model AR-15 A2 20” barrel. I bought from a friend after his dad passed away. https://photos.app.goo.gl/UywUCKbwPJiKfka56 |

This one on Gunbroker sold for $1500 https://www.gunbroker.com/item/1152451487 |
