why

>>32193265
because they are garbage, and only riding on their name at this point.
>>
>>32193265
Because he can't afford it, so he got something second-rate. He then wants other's to get the same second-rate rifle for self-verification; so he can feel good about his purchase by bandwagoning, even though deep down he knows it is shit.

Colt's are good. Get a Colt.

>>32193382
Wow, you really showed me. What with all your facts and supporting arguments on why Colt's are so terrible.

Basically, if you aren't an autist on /k/, you know that Colt ARs (LE6920 for normies) are very well-made, reliable rifles.
>>
>>32193382

Colt is the only brand that uses military spec manufacturing and QC.

All the small shops are meme brands that buy most of their parts from elsewhere anyway.

>military spec manufacturing
Too bad you don't have a clue what you're taking about. It's like you're just making shit up. Wait, that's just what you're doing.

Or FN for that matter aka the builder of all the M4s noways. Clearly the supplier to the military isn't milspec.
>>
Can't really go wrong with it if you get a good deal. I've got about 5k round through mine with no issues die to the gun (shit ammo I'd another story). But honestly just about anything from palmetto state, smith & wesson, or hell even DPMS will get you started. I'd only upgrade one you know the platform well enough, and by then you can build one to suit your style.

Damnit, I hate typing on my phone.
>>
>>32193519

Yeah, forgot.

Colt, FN and Diemaco are the only credible manufacturers of ARs.

The rest are gimmicky mom and pop shops which mostly assemble pre-made parts and put a finish on them, and follow very loose Milspec interpretations.
>>
>>32193134
Colt is still the standard that other ARs are judged by. Some companies exceed them however.

The only thing wrong with colt ar is the stupid "sear web" they don't machine out.
>>
>>32193700
colt isn't the standard I can name 5 companys better off hand

two of those come in at around the same price, if not a tad bit more expensive

Saying things like this is why people that don't know better buy cheap ars.
>>
>>32193134
I bought a colt earlier this year and already shoved a couple thousand rounds through it already, no issues. I'm not sure what these other anons who keep vaguely saying it's shit mean, I wouldn't take their word for it since they seem to just keep saying "GO ASK /arg/" usually when people do this it means they don't actually know what they're talking about and rely on others input for all their knowledge.
>>
>>32193915
it's not a bad rifle, it's a bad rifle for the price
either way, it holds value because people continue to be stupid, so it isn't a stupid buy if you are never going to put upgrades on it
>>
>>32193941
That's not what you guys are saying, you guys are saying they're bad rifles or their quality is shit.

http://www.thefirearmblog.com/blog/2014/03/07/6000-rounds-later-review-colt-6920/

This is more evidence that most people in this thread have no fucking clue what they're talking about.

There's a difference between "Over priced yet pretty good" and "Colt is shit, don't buy them".
>>
>>32193962
would you say a honda civic for 40k is a good car?

You're using the same argument as before, if it didn't have the effect on me when you did it before, why do you think your poor analogy would have anymore?

>over 5000 rounds of steel case ammo
>Still works no issues
>Still accurate

Yea, that's a shit rifle guys, mhmm. You convinced me to throw this rifle away.
>>
>>32193996
shit value and shit rifle are two different things
obv u can't understand that
>>
>>32194030
Except thats not what most anons have been trying to convey here, their arguments have mostly made it out like Colt is a shit company, it's not.

If someone wants to buy colt and they don't mind the price, why do you care? In fact lots of other manufactures people have brought up are way more expensive.

You keep inserting that little bottom feeding shop into this discussion.

Nice try shill.

Just because they supplied a fucking charging handle or some shit to the Coast Guard for 3 months does not make them equivalent to companies that have equipped entire armies.
>>
>>32193134
I have a Colt LE6920 SOCOM. It's a decent rifle, but not perfect. If you're adventurous, you can build a better AR for the same amount of cash, and end up with some extra tools.
>>
>>32194052
because the thread is specifically about whether or not its a good buy
I could care less what you buy, but if you ask me I'm gonna say if I think it's a good buy, I don't care if you buy it either war
colt is a shit company, that's why they have been bankrupt 50 times and came out with a mid length ar in 2016
I understand you are trying to justify your purchase on a Japanese noodle eating review board, I don't justify my grossly overpriced AR here because it's just foolish
I'm not calling anyone a poorfag or richfag, it's just not a good buy for the money

LE6920s are cheaper now than they ever have been.

>>32194095
OP's thread is him asking other people who own that colt model's opinion on if it's a good rifle or not. People with experience on that rifle are saying it's a good rifle. People who do not have that rifle are saying it's shit because memes.

I think it's mostly you trying to shit on other companies based off other peoples experiences instead of your own, and those other people aren't reliable sources just faggots on 4chan who CLAIM they know what they're talking about. Sorry, I don't buy what some tripfag attentionwhore says.

>I don't care
>Proceeds to argue with me

You certainly don't make your messages come up very strongly, if you didn't care then why bother explaining yourself here? Clearly you do care otherwise you wouldn't be doing this.

You sound like a low t betacuck male. You upset that Clinton lost?

>>32193915
The problem with the m16 and the colt is that it is used the military as a service rifle, which wears it down over time. So, a lot of people who served in the military think it's absolute shit, but it's not. Considering the state of the rifle is important too since a really used rifle is going to be shit.

>>32194234
He mostly explained to me their shitty business practices, they needed to get bailed out and expected the gun companies to purchase billions of dollars in their shitty colt merchandise to bring them back.

He also noted a lack of quality control on their firearms, their AR's are not as good as they used to be. The fit and finish are not worth the money they sell them for, same thing with their 1911's.

I almost believe it's the company shilling at this point. It's funny that none of them post their rifles.
>>
>>32194264
Maybe, but most anons here have no experience with the military, so Idk if that explanation makes sense, however I think they're doing it just because they want to justify their choice of brand, but don't really know why.

Here lemme show you, when anons like >>32194279
>>32194216
>>32194095
Just say general statements like "Over priced" and memes, you know they don't know what they're talking about because if they did they would go into more detail on exactly why Colt isn't a good brand, or when you call them out on that why it's over priced.

Notice how none of them ever actually explain themselves, I'll give you a hint, it's because they don't know what they're talking about.

Well with my colt 1911 and ar I haven't had any issues with them at all, and I've dealt with a lot of AR15s in my time. Did he have any examples by chance? I'm only curious.

>>32194313
>I refuse to contribute to a conversation other than making an ass out of myself

Okay.
>>
>>32194346
I'll give u an example
fn barrel PSA upper
+anderson and kit
~600
colt 6920 ~850
In what way is the colt better?
>>
>>32194364
I bet I did more in the military than your entire family did. Thanks for the memes, you lose the argument ;)
>>
>>32194391
No, the burden of proof is on your shoulders, when you make claims like "colt is shit" you are required to prove it. Until then, I won't take your word for it.
>>
>>32194396
Nice proof, lying on an anonymous nepalese thangka forum is the height of autism.
>>
>>32194380
I hear better things about their 1911s than ARs, I'll give them that
the 6920 that I had I could see right through the lower and upper, there were toolmarks all over it too
>>
>>32194407
>Waaaah waaaah
>Ur a pog

More memes, no arguments. Thats what kind of man you are.
>>
>>32194406
my point is that the colt is in no way better than the PSA at 1/3 more of the cost

You don't have a point because just giving us prices between two different rifles doesn't really show us if one if truly superior to the other or if both are actually equal.

Whoaaaaa there boy, thems fightin' words.

I won't claim to be an expert, but I've owned many different AR's, and when a firearm distributor who deals with the Colt company tells me about how shitty they've been to them, and their firearms, I tend to take that word in high regard.

>>32194380
It's not that there products don't work, but it's more or so about the price they sell them at compared to the quality of their product.

>>32194450
FN barrels are highly regarded if not better than colts
in my experience with my colt, the fit was shit so there goes that
a 70 dollar anderson will preform at the same level as a $750 KAC
trigger is the same, stock is the same
literally the same rifle, unless you can't put an AR together
hell, even the prebuilt PSA lowers are like 200 right?

for carbine gas 10.3 is cozy perfection, 14.5 is also perfect, 16 is mildly goofball
