And prices are starting to fall back in line. At least until the next big scare. That is a decent price on a decent gun.

 

I have ordered from Gilbert's Guns before and would order again.

Hmmm... just noticed they have a CMMG available as well.

Anyone know how the two would compare?  Essentially the same except the sights?

[Dolomite_supafly]

I would choose the S&W over the CMMG any day of the week.

S&W has a good product. I picked up the sport version about 2 weeks ago and I absolutely love it.

The S&W will be a great rifle for you. I picked up a Sport right before everything went nuts and it has been great.

It's no longer listed under "Rifles". It'd be I treating to see if it pops back up at a higher price. They were asking $1350 for the CMMG and $1100 for the S&W, that's not right

Nope !

[RinTN]

How about a Colt LE6920?  Would that be better, worse, or about the same as one of these?  Price under $1100.

 

Thanks!

[rugerla1]

Nothing wrong with that Colt for that price right now.

[knewcomb]

Go with the colt for sure

Thanks!

Walmart sells them for $1089 so yeah $1100 is a great price right now.

+1 on the Colt LE6920 at $1100. That's normal pricing!

Exactly where I found it!  :-)

If you didn't buy it, I'd say its gone

[Fourtyfive]

Thats good news !

I knew that would be the case, so I took it home with me.  When I asked about it, I was just wanting to make sure I hadn't made a poor choice.  It sure seemed like the best deal, but I'm not really knowledgeable about AR's.

[RinTN]

FWIW, in checking out the Walmart's, I was really hoping to find one of these:

At least on paper, it seems to be a nice as the Colt, but they sell it for about $200 less.  If both had been available, would the Sig have been a good purchase?

You go a great AR at pre panic price. That's awesome.

I like the Sig M400 but they are not better than the Colt. Colt used to be the ultimate in AR-15s but with modern advances in machining, most brands are good and reliable. People are paying $500+ more for cheaper guns than you bought. Take solice in the fact that you found a great AR at a great price. Now just get some ammo and go run that thing.

[Lumber_Jack]

But yes at pre panic prices and availability, I would have bought the Sig and saved $200 bucks, but that's not an option right now.
