    Help me with pricing

    I have a Colt 16" A1 upper, pencil barrel, round hand guards, complete BCG and CH. I need some help with what would be a fair price to sell it.

    This is a tough one... If you are willing to wait, and get a higher price, I would say...$450 or so. Parting it out might be better. You can get about $100 for the upper, about $200 for the barrel, and $150 or so for the BCG.. Yes, I know that adds up to $450, but you might get more for a specific part

    The BCG may go for more since it is a slab side one. You might get more than this for the upper. But, that is probably a good start. The one problem is, it isnt a particularly popular build for this. If it was a XM177 clone, or a commando, etc, then I think it would be worth more.

    Oddly enough, if it was a 14.5" or an 11" upper, it would be more desirable. In fact, if it was either of those two lengths, Id make an offer on it.

    Just my $.02
