Hey folks!

It's been a while but I'm considering the purchase of another AR. It's a "green label" Colt 6600 (AR-15A2 HBAR SPORTER). It's in 97% or better condition. All factory except it's an ex Washington State Police marked rifle. What would a fair price for this gun be? It's in a shop on consignment and they're taking offers.

Any and all input would be much appreciated. Thanks.

There were some prison guard trade-ins listed here recently- resembling your 6600 green/label- and IIRC those were selling for around $1,000.

..........slowly I might add.

Then again, there is this one.........

That guy thinks rather highly of his Colt.

I have seen them from $800 to $1050 depending on condition and who is selling them.

Thanks for the input folks, seriously!

The shop wants $1200 for it, plus like $60 in tax too... Anyhow, in Maryland the only AR15's that are treated like a normal long gun are HBAR variants. All other AR's have a "waiting period" like a pistol. I guess the shop is trying to capitalize on it being "cash & carry".

It's a pretty gun but apparently not worth that kind of scratch. Do the police markings help or hurt it's value?

I know that I can legally purchase and own the gun, I was just wondering what impact the markings would have on the guns dollar value and collectability.
