[QUOTE="swampratt, post: 3271361, member: 15054"] I researched the resale a little and it is hard to get your money back on an expensive build unless the guy is just looking to do the same thing you did. Colt LE6920 is still a good AR but resale on it is sit and wait deal. The market is saturated with inexpensive AR's Then you have so many different calibers to choose from and many people want the new wiz bang round. I went the cheap path and got an 80% lower and machined it myself.. just for satisfaction purposes of doing things myself. I then got what I was told was a very accurate kit from Palmetto. It was the Freedom stainless 16" 1:7 twist 5.56. I tweaked the stock trigger and installed a 3-9x40 scope and in it for less than 400 bucks total. Accuracy is my goal and it is Sub MOA to 200 yards with 55gr V-max bullets I handloaded. I do not plan on ever selling my AR's but if I did I am sure I could get my money back. If I spent 900 on the Colt i may be saddened during the selling. I could be wrong though. If Palmetto ever got the stainless kits back in stock i would get another. [/QUOTE]
