    Had some machine marks on the lower but nothing to bad.

    She's got some character now. It's all beat up and looks like someone went at it with a pipe wrench and a metal file. I love it, she still functions perfectly as well.

    God I love that rifle... Think I'll take her out tomorrow and show her a good time.

    Just weighing in

    This is my first post, sorry for being so opiniated, but i'm not buying something I can't use. I own a colt 6920, one great ar, shoot the crap out of it, clean it, shoot it some more, clean it some more. Bought a cmmg 22 conversion, shoot winchester xpert 36 grain. Runs great. But don't believe the brownell video, when it tells you how to remove barrel to put on a larue tactical rail. better get a torch out and heat it or you will strip the barrel nut. These guns were not meant to be safe queens. They were meant to be used and used alot. if you're going to keep it locked up, might as well as buy a picture of one and hang it on the wall and save your money. Agree with the theory that its like buying a hammer and never driving a nail. Will be posting pictures of my rifle later on. So far this has been a great site and i've enjoyed looking around.

    I've never heard of ANYONE getting laid because of the finish on his AR.

    After ordering a 6920 from Buds I began to read all these horror stories about hacked up guns being shipped. While I understand a gun is a tool, I ain't going to be happy spending $1300 on a weapon that is all dinged up. Well I received mine yesterday and it is beautiful. Some very light marks on the barrel just in front of the FSB, but nothing to be concerned about. YMMV

    Understand, but Colt only makes AR's for people that are.

    So if you want "pretty" get a RRA or BM. If you want a mil-spec fighting gun, get a Colt.
