Is there much demand for the "pre-ban" version of this rifle in the non-free states? I have one I'm thinking about selling. I just bought an M4 kit and am thinking about getting a new non-neutered 20" rifle. This one does not have the bayonet lug, but is a pre-ban bought in '92. It's also a slab side with large holes.

What's the interest level on mine? Could I get enough to buy a new rifle out of the deal if I sold it to someone in a non-free state? My impression is that Colt's are not highly regarded even in the non-free states because of the odd pin sizes.

Edit because I'm an idiot. After reading my post again, it was hard to tell what I was asking.

Not much response on GD so I edited it here as well.  Guess no one has any interest in this.

shameless bump

Send me more info.  How much you want and some pics would be nice.

Im in missouri too..st. louis,... Colt is pretty big here anyway..im guessin if your rifle is a complete colt (upper and lower w/ stampings on bolt assembly adn barrell) you coudl get a 1000$ if you sell it to the right person, even give or take 200$....

Its still a preban and still a colt...not to say it would give you enough money to buy something much better, but atleast a brand new bushy w/ no tear & wear on it.

Visit  Nassaue sporting goods, near I-70 and cave springs...they may be interested in buyin...though i dont know if too many stores are particularly lookin to buy right now..i think your best bet would to sell in the papers or to a friend

It's a complete Colt.  It definitely looks used.  The outside of the barrel is dirty and such, but the bore is still in good shape.  I like the rifle, but would rather have standard sized parts and normal take down pins rather than the screws.

I just picked mine up from my gun dealer,I bought it from a member here from Normandy Mo.

Its a 1993 Sporter Target but has a fence(not slab side) I paid 850+25 shipping!!

The seller said it had about 1000 rounds through it but it looks more like New!!!

So yes I would think you could get enough to build anything you might want!!!
