Right now I have a Colt Match Target Competition HBAR lower with a LE6520 upper and M16 bcg. I have it listed for sale with the intention of buying a LE 6920, however, I've also had a calling towards a few other fine firearms. I can't decide whether to buy the LE6920 like I originally planned, or to get a DSA STG-58 Para Carbine, or a Arsenal SAM-7 Classic Underfolder. If I don't replace the AR now I will buy one in the summer, but is there any reason I should go without one until then?

Dude, this is Arfcom...get them both

In your case, get all three.
This thread is very hard to masturbate too.

Just punching paper. 5.56 is alot cheaper than 7.62 NATO, but all three are on my wishlist. I'm going to end up with all three by the end of this summer, I just can't make up my mind.

ETA: A new funshop in town can get me a LE6920 for $1050. Maybe I should just get the AR now.... I hate decisions like this...

Can't punch paper at 400yds with a 10/22 though. For some reason .22LR don't do anything for me. Just one step above a BB gun.

I shoot on a friends farm. None are duty weapons or anyting like that. Are colt prices expected to increase any time soon? If so I'll pick up the AR...

If you can get a new 6920 for 1050 run, dont walk to the shop and buy it. Look around here and you will find the 6920 has become a bit tuff to come by recently. No idea why but they are just not to plentiful right now. That may change but I doubt you will find a better price any time soon.
