    Gun Pro deals had the 6920s in stock earlier today for $1199 but they sold out very fast. At least some vendors are not gouging too bad

    I’m not sure $1200 is gouging at all. Had colt kept the price of their weapons at that point, instead of playing yo-yo, it wouldn’t get a second thought. Once colt started to drop into the 7-800 dollar realm, it starts getting tossed around in the same threads as PSA, and the idiocy never ends.
    Stick


    Board policy mandates I state that I shoot for BCM. I have also done work for 200 or so manufacturers within the firearm community. I am prior service, a full time LEO, firearm instructor, armorer, TL, martial arts instructor, and all around good guy.

    I also shoot and write for various publications. Let me know if you know cool secrets or have toys worthy of an article...

    I can identify with this, as my company never competes on price: we compete on value. Our service is by far the best in the industry, so we charge accordingly.
    The difficulty with Colt is that...at $1200 for a semi-auto, 1.5” extra long, M4 heat shield as handguards, carbine-gassed, gov’t profile carbine... They are well into the territory of other solid manufacturers that provide improvements at the same price point.
    For a coarse analogy... You can’t charge a premium to ship a pallet, if your service is equivalent to other shippers (and good)...but your competitors offer online tracking and you don’t.
    Pardon the aside. I love my CCU, and a complete CCU is probably worth $1200. Not so sure about a 6920. I have a feeling that Colt wasn’t selling at $1200 and was forced to drop their price to move product.

    Let’s start a new thread on this topic if you are up for it. Title it whatever you want and drop it in this section. I think there are a lot of arguments both ways for what you are saying.

    When you can order a base Centurion CM4 for $1200, I dont think theres much doubt!
    The truth can only offend those who live a lie.

    Brownells stripped LE6933 11.5" uppers in stock for $499.

    I hope it's a good deal because I have no need for it but ordered one anyways!

    Colt LE6960 upper receivers available at Brownells...

    https://www.brownells.com/rifle-part..._content=Rifle

    Not nearly as low as they were going for a year or more ago, but understand these are desirable and hard to get.

    That is the 6920/6921.

    You need to scroll down to the 6933 11.5 because of how the Brownells site lists multiple related items.
