Not cheaper. Just not GB. Try gunwatcher.com, for starters.

This thing's a bit ridiculous. Federal factory stuff. 62'gr something or other. Shot for a five shot group after zeroing at 100yds. Federal factory stuff. 77gr. Sierra BTHP's. Gonna add some tritiums and then it's done.

Sweet, I haven't sighted my new one in yet and I'm debating on doing that right now along with a new 22 or pheasant hunting. Plus I got two new pistols that need shooting as well.
That's the same rifle I got accept different furniture and those pics are encouraging, I hope mine shoots like yours.

Travis I took your advice. To hot for the pooch here today, my wife went as a spectator and was freaking out over the heat for the dog. She put the kabosh to it quickly; half hour like. So disgruntled, I took them all home and grabbed the new 22lr xt 22, S&w 9mm shield and bought this Friday along with shotgun Glock 20. I previously owned and sold the 29, but this 20 is a keeper. Shoots 180 grain hydra shocks like a wet dream. The Mrs. and myself shot the shield excellent as well. 22 shoots the remington golden boolits nicely at 50 steps. Travis, I got an eotech on a DDXV the others I had got sold. What's a decent scope for these AR's??? I sold my bolt action not cause i wanted to i had to varmint guns and would like to use this for some varmints and yotes. I didn't take it today, I decided to wait till I get some glass

you know I can see the OEM versions costing less without the furniture however I wonder if Colt is cutting corners on these guns now. That gun in Gainesville has me interested.

There were no corners cut on mine. Thing is flawless yo.
I think Colt is selling at an all time low. But they'll only sell dealers HUGE quantities of product.

Travis, I think you hit the nail on the head. Colt is having financial issues. What is the cornerstone of any business? CASH FLOW.
I popped a trifecta of Krypteks, spaced out over a period of a couple few days in between. The Magpul furniture is expensive by itself, $200-250. Word to the wise.

LD,
I just saw your question about tritiums. I'll just end up buying whatever Brownells has. The ones with the single dog in the front post and two dots on the A2 rear. I like 'em.

My local FFL said Colt will no longer allow retailers to buy one or two of their products. If you want to place an order for their AR's, it has to be substantial. I assume he's telling the truth because he used to carry Colts all the time and has had nothing but love for them. Travis

You'd better get a Katana for your kids while you're at it. Keeps the biters at a distance instead of having to get right up on them.

Walking through a coulee with my son yesterday.
"Know what I'm thinking of buying?"
"What's that son."
"A sword from Cold Steel."
"Yeah son, I was just thinking you could really use a good sword."
"Yeah."

As his business has grown, he's stocking more guns. However, he has moved away from Colts in AR choices for the same reason.
