Colt AR-15 competition model

[Gary in Pennsylvania]

I am by no means a rifle guy. I like my CZ Pistols. But I've got a buddy in the office who has come across a Colt AR-15 Competition model with a coupla extra magazines. It apparently has had only a few boxes of rounds through it. He asked me what he might expect to pay for it (he doesn't know the year ala pre or post '94 ). I told him that the $1000 dollar range (or more) probably isn't all that unlikely for the going price - But I'd check with my buddies on-line to verify a typical price.

I will say that the AR-15 he came across is owned by an aquintance (of his) who needs quick cash. My buddy was also surprised at the $1000 figure - and I think he was already told what the price was. I also think it was MUCH lower that $1000.


Was I wrong? Is $1000 ballpark???

Thanks!

I bought my Colt HBAR Competiton in '97 and it cost around $900 IIRC. I'd suggest looking at Guns America and places like that to see if the value has gone up or stayed the same.
