Ok, that is close to what I was picturing but had never seen the plastic plug before. First I thought slab side but then you put DC and FA on. I have been told firing an AR with an empty FA hole could be harmful to your face.

Not my face.

Just bought one for $705 at a LGS.

It is seriously white box. No sights, one magazine, no forward assist, no ejection port cover. Hell, it even came in a plain brown box.

Sounds like Colt is selling them as "almost complete" to save the buyer some $ and be competitive in such a saturated marker as the AR15 market is?

[Shark1007]

I agree, but you can make 'em complete for 40 bucks or so and it's a Colt.

I wonder if this was a "move this shit" move because of bankruptcy looming. Someone came up with the great idea of selling high volume of bare bones ARs so if they did go belly up they would not have crates of 6920's sitting in a DC.

Looks like a great deal so it is working. Range report!!!!!

Congrats! Nice pick up.
