Price Check Colt HBAR Pre-ban
« on: May 20, 2008, 03:51:16 AM »
Can anyone tell me if $1150 is a fair price for a Colt HBAR Pre-ban with a 20" barrel, detatchable handle, flash hider, and 3 new 30 round bushmaster mags is a good price? The rifle appears to be in almost new condition but has no box. Thanks!

unless you REALLY want a Colt, I suggest you compare it to current production rifles and see if it is what you want. Unless you are considering collector value and on that I know nothing.

This is roughly $300 higher than a comparable new rifle with a different brand stamped on it.  If your heart is set on Colt, then the price is not terrible, I'd see if I could get $50 or even $100 knocked off the price, though.

I paid that when they were banned (non-detachable handle).  Sounds high to me.
