I know many people love Colt and they are very loyal customers. One thing to remember when picking your rifle it is not about resale value. Colt mass produce these firearms it really does not add any value. It is like buying a Ford Mustang it is a great car that is sporty and has performance but it will never hold it's value compared to a Corvette due to there are less Corvettes made than there are Mustangs. The same goes for the high end imports ect. The Colt will only be worth what someone is willing to pay for it used.
Also don't get sold with most people saying buy it because it is Mil Spec... The civilian model is not Mil Spec because it is not inspected by the government. It may have parts that would pass if inspected by it is not really Mil Spec it is terms people use to believe their rifles are the same as the Military.
Colt makes a great rifle but there are many more out there that people love and says it compares to or even is better than the Colt. The term AR is Trademark by Colt and all other manufactures has to use AR style ect since Colt purchased this right from the original AR manufacture due to economic issues it had.
