Default Clyde's lowered price on Colt 6933.

CORRECTION - The price has NOT been lowered. Guns4Fun was kind enough to point out that the lower price is actually for agency sales only.

I just ordered one last night from another dealer, and then tonight I go onto Clyde's website and see this as I have seen 100X over the last few weeks.....

Then some more lurking on the site and I found this, which I THINK is the same exact gun...

https://policeguns.com/catalog/produ...46q3nud3cjuhk5

Am I missing some difference or can you pick your price between the two identical guns?

Sorry about the links, I'm not sure what is wrong. Are they working for anybody else??

From the "asking" prices I've seen over the past few weeks, the $1350 price seems reasonable. Any idea what the MSRP and/or dealer pricing is on these from Colt?

The links work for me but I get a security alert from my "software".

The one gun is for individual officers to buy - and the other gun is for agencies to buy. Both the same rifle though.

It looks like the officer pays more.

6933's are great little rifles. I love mine. I bought mine a few years ago for 1200 - somthin.

You are probably better off if you buy it through a local dealer that has it in stock. That way you won't need to wait on the form 3 transfer from the one dealer to the other. It makes the wait time much shorter - by several weeks. I think paying a little extra for a local, in state dealer is worth the extra money so you don't have to wait the extra time on the form 3 dealer / dealer transfer time. Back in the day, form 3's were only taking 3 weeks - but from what I’ve read lately, its getting to be double that - then add on the 4mos for the form 4 to come back for you and your looking at nearly a half year before you get to take your new toy home.

Thanks for the reply. Being compu-tarded, I apologize if the links are messed up for anybody...not sure how/where I went wrong.

I still have yet to see one for sale anywhere local. I just ended up ordering from ScottsdaleGunClub.com and I don't know how long it will be until it's transfered to the dealer I am using here in PA, but I didn't talk to Clyde's last week and they said it was running around a month for the transfer.

How did you determine that one was for agency purchase and one for individual purchase?

Buy in July, wait 1-2 months + another 4 months = Merry Xmas to me!

It wasn't anything wrong with your link. It is a problem with the site itself. It came up with one of those security warnings about something on the site not being updated - and since that page has a lock icon (for ordering) my software alerted me to a potential problem with the site. Once i said it was okay, i got rite in. Maybe others software blockers don't give them the option to say continue and just lock them out.

The way i was able to tell the difference was on the left hand side above Categories, it show --- Top - Catalog - Firearms - Individual Officers Sales - Colt - Rifle - LE6933 for the one and the other is the same except it says Agency Only Sales instead of Individual Officers Sales.

Now that you have pointed that out, I stand corrected, Clyde's did NOT lower cost to individual buyers. Reading is fundamental...I should have tried it before making a new thread with bad info. I just got excited to see what I thought was the price possibly going down.

I bought mine a couple years ago for $1200-1300. Great little rifle and I like the fact that it is a factory SBR and doesn't have my name engraved on it.
