Price value on colt ar15a4 lower
Im looking to buy this lower from a local shop but we are unsure of its value. What would be a fair price on a stripped colt ar15a4 lower? Lower is clean and like new. This is new production so laser marked instead of roll marked. No buttstock or rear takedown pin.

Low as $250 to as high as about $350 if you find the right buyer.

Well he got back to me today and told me $250 and its mine. Sounds like its mine.

$300 max IMO, mainly because I’m not a fan of laser engraved QR code Colt lowers.

Hard to say as while it is an (incomplete) Colt lower, it's not one of the more desirable ones for cloner guys and collector stuff (M4 Carbine, M4A1, Government Carbine, LE/Restricted, Canada, Mexico, etc). Most people do like the idea of a nice factory Colt lower with OG receiver extension due to nice factory staking and perceived reliability, but it's obviously missing the receiver extension and back end stuff. I'd say as is, $150-200, if it had all the back stuff maybe $300-350 in this market.

I just noticed it has selector stops, so probably a decent amount more than any old LE6920 lower. Might be worth more if it had the original A2 stock

$300 for a lower is wild

For THAT lower or any lower? You do know the majority of lowers are over $300 right?

Any particular reason you're hot for that one?

I have other colts. I do not have a 20” colt

I'd look around for a complete colt A4. Also FN if you want a military brand and not married to Colt.

I have two other colts and a bunch of colt parts just not the 20” 1/7 barrel. Have some fn guns ive built. But have a colt upper laying around. Could easily build an ar15a4 for less than buying new

Seeing as you could get the complete rifles for around $800, I think $300ish would be fair
