Thanks for the heads up. I've been waffling about buying a 6920 for a while... guess I'll be getting that done quick.
And just like that Colts increased in price.
If there is one thing Colt has done well for collectors - it’s make guns more valuable.
I predict by end of week, there will be $1000 6920s on ARFcom and within a month $12-1500
I wouldn't be buying one for that very reason alone, on top of that it's not a decision I'd want to reward. There are other options available from companies not abandoning the market.Quote:

If the prices go full retard, I'll sell the two 6920s I have put aside for my kids in a heartbeat and replace them with BCM carbines and pocket the rest. My 6933 won't be going anywhere though.
I’ve been putting off getting a 6920, might have to explain to the wife it’s more of an urgency.
In the event 6920s become ridiculously expensive, what’s a viable alternative in the same price range?
BCM RECCE for a couple hundred more.Quote:
