Which AR should I keep?

[INMIline]

I only need one AR. So I have a choice I need to make. I have a DPMS Panther arms light with 16 inch chrome lined barrel 1/9 twist with forward assist, carry handle. Just a typical AR.
But I have an option to pick up a mt6700 colt match target h bar with 200 rounds through it. Same barrel, same options, same amount of mags. I will most likely pick it up to help the guy out who is selling it. But if so I need to part with one.

the colt.

ps- i'm a colt hater, too.

 

[BIG TIM]

Keep the colt! If it has the pony on it, it'll go up in value!

Unless I'm totally missing something here, the Colt would be the one I'd keep.

 

[INMIline]

It's just the extra $500 price difference isn't easy right now. I should have mentioned that. But I've been thinking, I'll lose the Mak90 and keep both ARs!!!

THAT seems like a plan!

Some will say Remember you ABCs.
Armilite
Bushmaster
Colt

There are other Great ARs; I just don't think DMPS ARs are in the same league, but there will be good arguments to the contrary.

You won't go wrong with a Colt. I have two myself.

If you want to collect, the Colt. If you want to shoot, the DPMS. $500 will buy plenty of mags and a case of ammo.

I cant get past that statement..... in Black Rifle Disease (BRD) "need" does not apply nor compute!!!

Right now I would get all that I could afford.... they will only go up in value. I too would go Colt over a DPMS. Resale value alone is worth it.

Unless the gun has been altered the 6700 Colt Match HBAR should have a 20" heavy bbl. I have 2 6700s, 1 pre and 1 post ban. Shot both of them today, as well as my Government Carbine, 9mm Carbine and M4 A3. I sighted in the ACOG and a Leupold 3.5-10x VARI X III. The HBARs shot very well and I had a great time. If the gun is all Colt I'd go for that one.

I am confused. I don't understand the question, either that or it just plain doesn't make any since....

IF YOU REALLY HAVE TO PART WITH ONE, keep the Colt, I have a pre-ban that I will NEVER part with. More accurate and less malfunctions than the M4's I had in Iraq and Afghanistan.
BTW, my personal opinion is don't part with either one, you may have a battle buddy that needs a combat rifle in the near future!!!

 

[muncie21]

I'd ditch the Mac90 like you mentioned. Not only would it help to fund the Colt, it would also get you down to one caliber ammo to stock up on.

 

[cigarman454]

I agree with LOCK N LOAD find a way to keep both.

 

[back40hunter]

The Colt will always go up in value, if kept in good shape.

 

[gillis51]

Keep the colt

 

[Big Ed]

Keep the colt and my humble opinion keep the mac. The mac uses 9mm (I'm assuming) and is a NATO round. If the shtf then there could be 9mm ammo laying around to be picked up after a schirmish (spelling?) and so far is readily available at least here. The 223 stuff a little harder to find sometimes.

 

[koenig clone]

throw them all in the weeds by my house. they are all junk.

Only need one AR?????

Any survivalist will tell you "Two is one and one is none". Always have a back-up.

 

[Bshaw]

AR

I dont see where there is even a question here
COLT all the way
