I can empathize with you. Maybe some day, the people will revolt against those that deny them their unalienable rights. God Bless!

I've never seen a Colt AR that didn't have tons of "blems" on it.

I have a couple 6920s now and mine are good. Mine have a couple of very minor marks from assembly, no big deal. Not sure what "tons of blems" mean but that's not my experience. I've owned numerous Colts since the early 90s and have never had one with what I would consider "Tons of blems". Colts are made to save your life and kill bad guys, not sit in the safe looking pretty.

All of my colts have come in exceptional perfect conditions. Generally speaking I don't care about cosmetic crap.

Colt does a great job missing the bolt catch pin in my experience. That and marring the receiver. At least PSA monkeys were not involved. Have you ever wondered if the monkeys at PSA sleep in cages?

Outta the 20 or so I've owned, I think one was close to blem free.

My numbers are similar. Clearly it doesn't bother me as I continue to buy them. Looking back on it I think the only one that I've bought that wasn't marred up in some was was my IAR. Probably because Colt wanted that to lead to a military contract...
