Go to any high power match in the country and see how built guns shoot.
Educate me, as I’m obviously not as enlightened as others here. How is this a Colt ripoff?I'm not the one saying builds won't match up to an issued service rifle.
Here is an illustration of the colt ripoff

So, you saved a $100 bucks? Well done sir! Pat yourself on the back.It's illustrating how colt is a ripoff.
That is my super duty.

That colt is a 600 dollar rifle selling at premium prices. It's 1/3 the rifle that the geissele is, but for some reason everyone rides that colt train. They don't make great rifles, they make ok rifles and mark up 500+ for a pony on the side.
I won't cut them a break on pricing. A 6920 costs colt about 250 dollars on the high end. It's a bottom barrel gun they are gouging customers with. FN at least has a Knights rail ambi safety and proper rear buis.
You are 100% correct. Your Geissele is probably a much nicer shooting, and probably way lighter than the Colt 6940.
Colt rifles are adequate, that’s it. I’ve never said they were the best, or the Gold Standard. They are the minimum standard, nothing more. The one advantage that Colt has over most other rifle manufacturers is resale.
Owning a Colt is similar to owning AT&T stock. The price doesn’t fluctuate much, but it has always paid a dividend.
Is the argument really that because Army uses colt they are the best rifles...?
Because everyone knows the army only uses the best top of the line gear!!
Nor did I claim that, but I think you know that. Enjoy your hate, I’ll enjoy my Colts.Resale isn't a measure of quality or usability
Not really.Had to work today. Some one has to make the donuts.
This got interesting.
Not really.
Like I said in my first post in this thread. It’s just hip to hate Colt, the same as it is to hate Nickleback. The internet says they suck, so they go with the crowd. Sheep are very set in their ways and can’t be taught anything. They learned stuff on the airsoft forums.
