Colt European CR6920-EC AR15

[Stickman]

Seems like a pretty good buy for someone in the market for a factory Colt. If I had the money to burn I’d buy one.

$900 for one currently, it will be interesting to see how low they end up going for. I still kick myself for not picking up a 901 when they were cheap.

Arms Unlimited website is down to 232, so they've sold 18.

I wonder if it is a true .223 cut chamber.

I know some Euro countries ( and South Amer. countries ) don't allow Mil. chamberings

Interesting. On the Arms Unlimited site, clicking on any of the other Colt AR's, caliber is listed as 5.45X45 NATO (223 rem.), but on the Euro Colt, caliber is just listed as 223 Rem. If that's true, it's a no-go for me.

Shit, I bought the Colt 6.5CM for $1,400 and kick myself for not buying 10 in 6.5 and 308 for $1,400. When I bought it I was like, this is dangerous but I'll take a shot.

I bought a 901 from Arms Unlimited. If it makes you feel any better, I had to return it for a refund. It was missing a part (like the bolt catch or something else, but I don't remember) and things in the box along with the box label didn't seem right. I called Colt and the nice lady I spoke with told me that the receiver left Cost as a part, not as a complete rifle. I called Arms Unlimited and they admitted that they had assembled the rifle from parts they got from Colt. They took it back and I bought a factory built 901 from someone else for about $100 more. Arms Unlimited does have cool Colt stuff, but I'm wary when purchasing from them.

Yeah, that is fine if its stated in print so you know what you are getting, but failing to disclose that is pretty bad.

Exactly. I could be wrong, but I suspect that the SBR linked below isn't a factory rifle. It looks to me like they took an M5 SBR and added a subcompact weapon folding stock to it.

Yes. They are indeed installing the SCW kits on factory rifles. The rifle did not leave from Colt that way. Maybe it’s fine, maybe it’s not, but they should plainly state that in the description.

They're showing 100 in stock. There will be 99 left after I complete my order.

Damn! Tempting. We've been running the previous 6920 version for a few months now. Great gun.
