Went to my local gun shop and he say'd he could order me a colt LE6920 for $1400(brand new in box). Anybody have any comment's on this rifle? Does that price sound pretty decent?  Also I believe it has the 16inch barrel and the 6921 has the 14.5inch which still I dont know how much of a price difference there are. Also I would like to add a vertical forend grip, which grip would fit best for this rifle, and what kind of mount rail would I need?

Thanks guy's much appreciated
Yall take care now!

I just bought one for $1050 and I was rather hesitant to pay that amount.  I think $1400 is higher than a cat's ass...

look around for one cheaper and find a dealer that will do the transfer

I think that price is high as well, I paid $1099 in July.  The 6921 is the 14.5 one, but it is restricted because of it's shorter barrel length.  Unless you are a police officer, I'm not sure you can own it.

Here's a pic of my 6920 with an ACOG TA11-F and Surefire M-500A.  It is my duty rifle so yes, my life depends on it.

Been browsing some website's and iv only seen them going for around 1400-1500usd. Going to take a trip to some other local place's and see if any of them carry it. I dont really mind paying the extra money(as I see investing in a colt and its quality is well worth it) but if I can find it cheaper then all the better. Thanks Guy's

Have you checked the equipment exchange here?

Just because our state of WA doesn't allow non-LEO/GOV to have SBR, it doesn't mean that his doesn't.  In NV, I believe all he needs is to pay the additional ATF $200 tax stamp along with paperwork, as that state is about as gun friendly as they come.

Thanks for the advice guy's I highly appreciate it and will continue to look around and will post some picture's as soon as I pick her up. lol I have only browsed my state's law's a couple time's, I think it's about time I read all of them and see what is allowed and what is not.

I pretty much have a choice to make either go with the colt le6920 or an RRA Tactical Elite midlength......choices lol

Thanks guys

One more question in the future if I went threw adcofirearms and had the barrel +flash hider to 14.5inch would that be a possibility or would I still need to go threw the ATF and pay the tax and get the stamp?  Is there a difference between a 16inch compared to a 14.5inch or is it more of a personal look opinion.

the above advice has been good. (and civil given the subject matter)

You can get one for $1,100 (plus $10 shipping) from ----> Knesek Guns-click here

I and many others have found him to be 100% and a nice guy to boot

Good choice of ARs. Now its all about making the right choice of sources.

welcome!

Thanks red, I was kinda skeptical on ordering online but that is an awsome price that I may have to take up.

I was also, but after my 3rd gun through larry- I wonder why I ever consider any other options

He is a genuinly good guy to deal with

You will need to have the gun sent to a local (to you) FFL who charge from $10- $35 for the service.

Even at that, you save plenty

worry not. Give him a call

ETA: RRA vs. Colt LE6920 is no contest.

the Colt is worth $200-300 more than the RRA in resale value alone. The RRA is nice, but it is no Colt

Thanks again red I will give him a call and appreciate all your help my friend.
Now its time to decide on the le6920 or the RRA KNESEK LE MODEL   both seem to be the same price.


Thanks

Tell your dealer to F/Off.... he doesn't even have the thing in stock, which might allow him to ask a little more than market price for it, in exchange for the convenience of buying it right now. He could have made a hundred bucks off you and still sold it to you for around $1100, simply for making a phone call and ordering the rifle, and gaining a more long term customer. I'd walk away and never deal with him.

Anyone that's so aloof as to not realize that people willing to spend over $1000 on a gun might actually do some market research, or, pompous enough to believe that they deserve to ask that price, surely isn't worth your business. I can't believe dealers are still pulling this shit and the ban's been expired for over a year.
