Howdy,

I need some help on what to do here. I recently acquired a Colt AR-15 A2 Sporter II preban. The upper is nice, but I want something else. should I sell it or keep it? will getting rid of the upper negate its worth as a whole rifle?

I believe everything is factory Colt.
It is 1/7 twist and I think Chrome lined.
A2 front sight.
A1 sights and carry handle.
No shell deflector.
Forward assist.
The barrel is small under the handgaurds.
A2 muzzle device.
Slab side lower.
Bayo lugs.
No sear block.
Round handguards.

Is this an A1 or A2?

Since you are in NY the value is in the receiver.  I would part it out to built what you want around the preban lower.

May have a hard time selling upper to someone in NY without receiver. I would keep upper and build another upper for the rifle and just swap them.

Well thanks for the advice. I think im just gonna keep all the original parts and stuff and just get another upper as well. Came with the original mag (I think) sling, and cleaning kit. Thanks again.
