What should I do with my Colt????

[ColtDogg]

Okay, I have a NIB Colt AR-15 Green label AR. It is one of the older guns R6600K (20" full stock gun). The K means they added the 22 conversion and cut off the bayo. lug. Colt being kid friendly. This has the SP1 type lower, Sporter HBAR gun. Like I said, this is a NIB gun, with all that it came from from Colt with the 22 conversion Kit!

Now I been wanting a Colt H-bar, prefer the R6600 H-bar for a shooter, just do not have the funds to buy one right now.

Let me ask whet you guys would do???

Pros -
This gun is not longer made,
I been seeing them listed for about $2200 to $2800.
It has the .22 kit with the gun.
Its a Colt!

Cons-
This gun is not longer made,
I been seeing them sale for about $2200 to $2800.
Takes a lot of room in the safe!

Guns are meant to be shot.

However, if it isn't the one you want, sell it and get the gun you do want and shoot the hell out of that one.

If it were mine, I would sell it and buy two guns that I really want and have a little left over for ammo.

I just sold the unfired upper off my Colt 606A to pay for a Colt 6933 upper. That 606 was just hogging space in my safe and the 6933 already has 100 rounds downrange. I'm very happy that I got something I could use instead.

If you can really sell it for that much you could get a great shooter, 1500 rounds and pay for a class. That would be the best use of funds IMO.

Thanks all, the $2200 to $2800 is a price I seen a few listed for. I do not know if that is what they are bringing. So I do not know. Now when I bought this gun, it was my 2nd gun I bought back in the mid 90's. My first on was the Colt R6600 like what I want now, I just wish I did not sale it. I sold it to buy a Olmpic arms M16 back in the mid 90's as well I just could not get my LEO sign off. After that I did not get my old gun back.

sell it and get what you really want.... you'll probably have money left over too.

It's a sad fact that only 2% of the guns out there ever get shot on a consistant basis. Why have a gun taking up space that you don't want to shoot? get one you want to shoot and sell the one you have to a collector who most likely will not shoot it either since it is "NIB and no longer made."

Sell it and buy one you'll shoot. I just traded the first handgun I ever bought for another gun I'll actually shoot.

I'm new here so my opinion might not count for much. However, I say shooting something you like will bring more satisfaction than just looking at one.
