I have decieded to purchase a second LE6920 and have a couple of questions.

Is there any differences at all (besides markings) between a US Colt and Colt Canada 6920?

Should I specifically look for an all US Colt, or does it not even matter?

This will most likely be my last AR purchase:eek: so I need to make it count.

Thanks.

The chance of you getting a Canadian made LE Colt rifle are slim to none. There is no difference between the two.

A Colt Canada (formerly Diemaco) may get you an L119A1 hammer-forged SF barrel.

REALLY good deal if you get one of those!

Diemaco/Colt Canada only does the SFW barrels for those who buy the SFW/L119A1/C8FTHB, I understand none are for civilian sale.

They do make a variety of other profiles - inc three different 14.5" barrels.
like this C8A2 LE gun

I beleive all the 6920 barrels are still done by Colt Defence USA
