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."
Travis That's the Katana Machete. The kid thinks it's cool and I thought it was cooler than the $40 in my wallet was. It's amazing what a big difference the little stuff makes when they're young....

Flave .... what made you choose the A2 buttstock? I've been thinking similar for my 6920 and getting away from the Magpul.

Because the A2 level of cool matches my level of cool.
Also, butt stroking cannot be done proper with a janky collapsible type.
Last but not last, I crawl the stock with irons and like full stock. And this one is going to always wear irons.

I don't dig the flippin' yanking of facial hair with the magpul stock. I haven't had better luck with the mil-spec option either.

I like the A2's, too.. a lot. But, if somebody's trying to give me a $200-250 worth of camo furniture I'm guessing somebody's gonna want in exchange for me buying their brandy new Colt LE M4 for $760, yeah, I'll bite.
Truth is, all the T6's rattle that I've ever picked up, 4 or 6 position. Same with the Magpuls, far as I've ever seen. Makes the A2's start to look a lot better, especially if you're mounting anything larger than an ACOG, red dot, or holographic and shooting anything at distance.

I have always preferred them and have always wanted a regular HBAR. But when I found these without furniture I figured what's another $40 to swap the buffer tube.
I like it.

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. Wish my DD would do that

For those of you that prefer the A2 stock configuration, CDNN has the Colt HBAR2 Match Target models with the removable carry handle on sale for $799.00. Sounds like a smokin deal to me on a new Colt AR-15 I'm thinking of picking up a spare AR-15 for Ranch useage. And I'm thinking this deal is hard to beat for the money, also. http://www.cdnnsports.com/colt-match-target-223-competition-hbar-ii.html#.VjFeqfOCOrU

Several 6720s listed on slick guns, starting at $780 with free shipping, it's tempting me to add a second 6720.

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. jimmyp, sorry. I didn't see this earlier. No, they didn't cut any corners. It's a standard m4 with that Magpul kryptek camo furniture. Chrome lined barrel, 1:7 twist. Front iron sight. No rear. No carry handle.

That's a good deal. Not sure, but IIRC, that's the match grade barrel.
