    I'd love to get one of those boat anchor uppers/barrels.

    I hope you won't sell it again in a couple of months!


    Very nice colt. I prefer colors that aren't black or pink/purple myself.


    Needs some quality aluminum or magpul mags, lest you start blaming the gun when your current mags start acting up.

    A new description (in a growing field of such) as far as I know.

    I really like the color. I wish I would have known they offered that color when I bought my 6920 about 6 months ago. Nice looking piece you have there sir.

    Your plan is excellent. Add a sling add a sling and flashlight, and you are good to go.

    I just bump fired 500 through my socom sunday in a couple hours. All of it mag dumps (30 rounders), does that qualify? OP...you also get the M4A1 roll mark, Factory installed Kac ras with 4 rail guards..but you will run into haters that dis the heavier barrel because they were to cheap or couldn't swing it. If You aren't blowing smoke and do pick up the socom you will enjoy owning and shooting it...either way con grads on the FDE! Now let me get back to heating up my boat anchor of a barrel, its currently over 3800 rounds...I've had it since April.

    I don't agree with some of your views on AR's but you have more trigger time than me and dang sure make me laugh markm.
