If you want a colt m4 le model your gonna spend 1200 alone. Well this comes with almost 1000 upgrades foreend, barrel, stock, trigger, iron sight. 1200 for the whole thing except the generic flashlight with pad.. $1200.. Done let this pass unless your willing to spend more than 2k later...

Does this come with all the original parts that you upgraded?

Nope sorry, foreend is gone, never had a rear sight, stock A2, is gone, original trigger also, and original grip, and original barrel. Never thought I'd sell it. So all those parts were upgraded to clone the block 2. And original lost in time. It has no more than 500 or no more 400 rounds in it..

Even without original parts I'd think all upgrades are far way more worth than original. Original parts if needed would probably cost less than half. But thats just my thinking. Maybe or maybe not.
Forened to knights armament
Trigger to geissle ssa-e
Stock a2 to bravo sopmod
Barrel to colt m4 heavy socom
A2 flash hider to JMAC pinned
Rear sight had none to matech

Ok last price drop $1100. Cheaper than buying a base colt me le model. Base model cost 1200.. Ungradrs 1k. So at $1100 ITS A NO BRAINER. IF IT DOESN'T SELL I WILL JUST KEEP IT.. AND IF YOU EVER WANTED A COLT. TOO BAD..

Just my 2 cents, modding/customizing AR's is like adding a bunch of stuff to a Harley to make it your own. It just doesn't add any real value to the next owner, and in the case of a Harley it takes away value as the next guy is going to look at the bike and figure out what he DOESN'T want and will have to replace to "make it his own".

From all of the customized AR's listed for sale I've seen on this website the vast majority have significant price drops before too long. The only possible exception is if you put a real good scope on a rifle.

I inherited an LMT AR-15 with a lot of "top quality" add ons (real laser, LED, Leupold Red Dot, BUIS) and when I sold it all the offers I got were pretty much exactly what the stock LMT used rifles were selling for. I parted it out and ended up getting $500 for the rifle and almost $500 for the other stuff.

There used to be a big difference between the quality of cheaper AR's and high end AR's and now almost every AR manufacturer makes a pretty good rifle.

Colt used to be the "gun to beat", now pretty much everyone makes an affordable rifle that will run as good as current Colt rifles. Don't get me wrong, I prefer my older 20" Colt Match Target, (I paid $900 used in excellent condition) which used the be their top of the line rifle, but I like my Windham 20" Gov't Rifle ($1100 new) just about as much, and out to about 400 yards my $525 16" S&W M&P Sport II shoots about as well as the 20" rifles.

Yes understood but what would someone do to a colt stock.. They would have to upgrade things at some point. And if you buy a stock colt right now it would cost what I'm selling it for the whole. I can understand if it's like glock everyone has their taste of grip texture styles. But I don't know what else style would a colt go. Besides that way. I guess people can use zev trigger instead of ssae or another stock instead of bravo or instead on knights armament go with spike handguard. I had a sw mp sport and charging it isn't as smooth as quality built colt. I know lmt is but not sw, I'm not saying it's not a good rifle but the weight the feel of gripping it hard it's not as tight built as in colt.

If I think of a revolver I think of colt or Smith and wesson. If I think of AR I think colt, if 1911 I think colt. But thats just me.. And it sold tomorrow is transaction. See some peoples junk is some people's treasure. I think that's how it's said. CLOSE ADMIN

Cool you sold your rifle. I used to be strictly a Colt AR guy but Windham changed my mind and when Hillary Rotten Clinton was running in 2016 I bought a couple of S&W M&P's Sport II's in case I needed to give them to other family members.

When it comes to revolvers it is only Colt, 2 Grizzly's, 6 Python's, a couple of Diamondback's, Det Special's, one Anaconda. I just need a Kodiak :)

I do have 2 first year S&W .44 Magnums, before they were the Model 29 (thanks grandpa!).
