I was in a LGS yesterday and looked at a slightly used colt competition rifle, ended up buying a new le6920 and some goodies as I wanted a new ar.. as I sold all as soon as NY made the new laws, but am thinking I could use this model crp 18 as well.
I am curious as to info on this, it comes factory with a lot of decent IMHO parts, giselle trigger samson rail, adjustable gas system and a 1/8 twist barrel to include a surefire brake.
This particular rifle did not have the badger tac latch but did have a factory LMT sopmod stock, as noted on box from Colt.
it has a nice unused kleanbore cleaning kit, all boxes and papers, a few pmags and a colt 10 rd, a 5/8 inch 3 shot group from factory with 75 bthp ammo, and I honestly believe the claim of 60 rds of factory hornady 75bthp ammo from the owner.

Any reviews , opinions or price ballpark on this?
Thanks in advance
 
That seems like it should shoot even smaller groups with reloads. I had a Bushmaster DCM that would shoot less than 1/2" ten shot groups at 100 yds. with 69 gr. Match Kings that I reloaded. That is with my 18 power scope on it.

They were making two different grades of the 18 inch competition, possibly still are, there was a few hundred dollars difference in the price, and possibly only one of them had the adjustable gas system, and the barrel was at least cosmetically different between the two. I would suggest you find out which of the two you are looking at, and then check around, and find out which one if either
The Top three gun shooters are using.
