Finally Got My 6933-EPR Set Up...

[SteyrAUG]

So I've grabbed a 6920-EPR almost a couple years back to get a feel for whole LPVO thing. My problem was learning to use the 1x like a red dot. I really was far more comfortable with a single lens RDS and Eotechs were always my go to. At close ranges I've always had some problems with ACOGs and aimpoints, but it's getting better.

And since one of my suppliers FINALLY got some 6933-EPRs in stock I snagged one and decided to see if I could get used to something smaller and went with a Romeo 5. It's a little hard to trust the Motac feature but I can see the attraction and in any case it's optional if I decide I hate it. Other than that, I really have no complaints.

For those who just can't quickly acquire small red dot setups I will say having something like a SF 640 Scout makes all the difference. You see everything inside and outside the scope.

As with the 6920-EPR the Centurion rail is worth the upgrade. The 6933 is so light it's amazing. Gonna run it as is (will add a sling) to keep it that way. I really did think when I bought my 6920 and 6520 back in 2004 they would be the last Colt's I'd ever need. Then a few years later I grabbed a 6933 thinking THIS will be the last Colt I'll ever need. Then I bought a 6945 and thought FOR SURE this will be the last Colt I'll ever need.

So for the time being, the EPRs should be the last Colts I'll need for awhile.

SteyrAUG great guns.
I saw the thread title ‘6933’ and had to check it out. I bought an LE6933 in 2016. More than 10 years before that I had bought an LE6945 10.3” one piece monolithic upper from Ken Elmore at his Specialized Armament shop for my M16A1. I made my ’sorta’ EPR by combining the 6933 lower with the 6945 upper.

Nice congrats brother

So, what's the difference between an EPR and the non-EPR version. Is it simply the handguard and front sight?

Centurion rail, Magpul pro BUIS, B5 stock. That's about it. But the Centurion rail alone makes all the difference. I almost bought just the upper since I already had a factory 6933 and could have swapped the uppers back and forth, but the cost of the complete SBR was about the same as the sum of the parts so it was worth having two 11.5 rifles to me.

Very nice setups. Going to drive me to more Colts if you keep posting pictures like this dude.
