Year made? Description of accessories? Better pics would help too.

This one is post-Dec. 1967 as evidenced by the A1 birdcage FH. A shot of the serial number and barrel markings would tell what year it was made. It could be anywhere from 1968-1985.

According to the serial number, it was made in 1980. Not really rare as it is considered a late SP1.

Do you have a close up picture of the scope?

May I ask where you are getting that info

I have a SP1 datebase source that I use that is on the AR-15 Forum (Retro section). It has been compiled over several years by those who own and have owned Colt SP1 Sporters since they were produced in 1964. It is one of the best and most thorough sources available right now. If you ask most people on this forum, they will tell you that I know a little bit about retro Colts.

Retroblackrifle.com is a good source. I have used them many times as a reference on many retro Colt models when I was building clones.

And you've built some of the nicest ones out there. I was tempted to sell a car when you put that set up for sale.

Thanks.
Even if the Glock or AR collection was worth more then $6000? I'd keep your doors open on such a high priced and rare item. GLWS
