Colt 6921 CQB

[Wally]

Hey guys, this is the first time I have posted here, but I have been reading up for a while. Here it goes...

A local shop has a Colt 6921CQB for sale for $1995.00 NIB. Just wondering if this is a fair price for what it is? M4LE lower, 105 inch barrel, etc. This is not my first SBR, but there is something about a real short barreled colt that gets me going...:)

Any owners out there? Any thoughts would be appreciated!

Thanks,

Wally

That's a pretty steep buy-in.

But if it's what floats yer boat, go for it!

Dont forget to add in tax, transfer fee, and $200 tax stamp.

Thanks for the replies.

The reason I am asking is that I have never seen a 6921CQB with the SOCOM 10.5 heavy barrel for sale. The 6933's seem to be all over the place but this seems to be somewhat unique. As far as the overall cost, I am looking at about $2,356.60 total with the rifle, local taxes and stamp.

Does anyone know what these have sold for elsewhere? I don't mind paying a little more for something that is in stock at a store 10 minutes from my house, but i don't want to be screwed either...

I've actually never heard of the CQB until your post.

A local shop (Bachman Pawn&Gun) had a 6921 on their wall last week, that's 14.5" barrel, and they were asking $1499 IIRC.

You may want to look at the LE6921SP which has a 10" barrel. SAW has them for $300 less than what you're looking at.

I still wouldn't pay that much either though. Not when I got my 6933s for $1250/ea. I guess you may have some reason that the heavier barrel is important, but make sure it's really $450 more important. SAW generally sells their Colt barrels for $450-$500. You could buy a 6933 and sell off the barrel and buy a new barrel and still not have $1700-$2k invested.

I guess maybe as some kind of bragging gun the 6921SP or 6921CQB may be worthwhile, but for pure function there's may other less expensive options.

Specialized Armament (http://www.specializedarmament.com/catalog/Law_Enforcment-6-0.html) must have just started selling these; 6921CQB. If you follow that link it will also list the 6921SP. Tina told me that all SP models have Ken Elmore's reliability package (http://216.73.122.236/content/skins/flat/popup_issue_95.html) already performed and included in the price. So it's a step up from a straight stick 6933.

I got three of those from him :)

Maybe this will help...I do not carry or use firearms for a living. So, that being said, this would be a shooter and investment. I understand that there are less expensive variants available, but this one seems to get the blood going. I am not worried about a $300 difference when the initial investment is pretty steep in the first place. I already have a 10.5 LMT with all the toys so this one would pretty much remain as it comes from the factory.

As i have said, I have paid attention to this board for a while and you guys seem to have better information and more controlled opinions than other boards. Thus the reason I signed up and asked the initial question...

Thanks again and keep the info coming!!!

Well look at it like this it is a Colt so it will only go up in value. So go for it man.

[davemcdonald]

Bachman has gone up on their Colts. Last month the 6921s were in the 1250 ball park and the 6920s were going for 1399.

All that aside, if anybody in this country has Colts in stock it will be Bachman.

I live in Phoenix AZ. and a new shop just opened. Among other things, they have the 6933, 6921 14.5 and 10.5, KAC masterkeys, etc.

Personally I wouldn't get too attached to the idea of this thing as an investment. Full Auto might be viewed as one, but SBRs, suppressors, and AOWs aren't.

But, buy whatever floats your boat. As I said already, I can't see spending $2k on one of these but it's your money and you are obviously free to burn it in whatever fire you want. I'm a die-hard Colt AR fan (it's all I own) but in this case I don't see what the extra $800 is buying you.

Get the Colt 6921CQB. The lower alone is a factory registered NFA 10.5", so no pesky engraving to have to worry about. The upper will hold it's value longer than most. So yeah, before they sell out (only 5 left!).
