FWIW, Chris Bartocci, a former Colt employee, thinks they are outsourced and not manufactured by Colt.
That's impossible. Everyone on here knows that each manufacturer has their own forge and are making their own BCG's along with their own QC and HP/MP process.
Anyone bought a 6920 recently and checked their bolt/BCG for proper markings?
Just received this email from Arms Unlimited:
Hello Jason, all products that we advertise as Colt products are indeed Colt manufactured and are shipped in bulk packaging direct from Colt. Colt does not put the C marking on their bolt carriers anymore. Here is our direct Colt contact if you would like to verify. alacolin@colt.com
I have a recently purchased Colt upper with no C on the carrier, but the bolt has the white dot and is marked MPC. However, my 2 6720s and 6960,all purchased as complete rifles at different points over Mid 2016 to now, have a C on the carrier...go figure...
