The folding stock is a shiny black color and the term "green box" was mentioned.

Forgive mr_wilsons anger....
 The brass deflector is a little nub on the upper rcv'r just aft of the ejection port so that the brass doesn't come back to hit the shooter. The design is great, it usually sends it down the back of the neck of the guy next to on the line. |

He is selling it and was talking 1500 bucks. Just wondering if its worth it. Im trying to find out if this is a desirable model and how old it may be.

Don't sweat it. There are a lot of very nice folks here, who are willing to help, without chewing your ass, for not researching. From your post count, I would guess you don't have a lot of knowledge of what is on this site. There are answers to most all questions, as they have usually been asked beore. Your question seems sort of unique, I don't know. Don't worry about the rude responses, and stick around, someone will chime in with what you need before long..........Treeman

Boy, this is a lot of fuss over a simple question.
Your friend has a Colt SP1. They were made from 1963 up to about 1986 or so. None of them had a forward assist, none of them had a case deflector. They came in both rifle and carbine variants. I cannot comment on value. |

Sounds like your friend has an SP1 carbine, or possibly an SP2. The serial # should start w/SP, collapsible stock, and a 16 inch barrel If the stock is plastic covered metal it could be wither a 1 or a 2. If the stock is plastic then it's a late 2 model. $1500 would have been a decent price back when the ban was in place, but is unrealistically high in the current market. If the thing is approximately in new shape, I wouldn't think you could go much beyond $1100. And start deducting for increasing signs of use. I've seen them for $800-900 here in Georgia, in top shape, in the past year or so; but geographic location does play a part in what a given piece will bring. Sorry I can't be more precise on the value thing.

You also might want to visit the Colt section in the Industry Forums. A lot of hard-core Colt collectors there that might have better value/pricing information.
