He got a Colt 6520, the whole gun, not just the upper for 900.00. He had been looking to get a Colt upper only when this deal came along.

The gun is a lightweight 16'' carbine.

They are in the CDNN ad. 899.00 new in box with all accessories.

Good job. You didn't compromise on some lesser brand or inferior product. Colt.. the best.

Illinois PWNED.

IL doesn't have mag restrictions outside of Peoples Republic of Chicago.

Congrats on the purchase! Is that a removable carry handle? If not, that's fine too. I might pick one up for that price, I'm a KISS guy.

No removable carry handle. It is the KISS one, lightweight barrel. I added one of these to my collection also.

I wouldn't mind seeing how it works with a carry handle mounted Mini Red dot like the RMR though.
