By what? I'm not clicking links, and certainly not watching videos if someone isn't willing to give a brief summary.

"Under certain conditions, it is possible that some Colt MSRs may discharge a second round when the trigger is released with a live round in the chamber. Colt has identified the cause of this condition as being hammers installed in certain MSRs that do not meet Colt’s specifications. The issue will be corrected by replacing the hammer in affected MSRs."

Thank you. This came out awhile back IIRC, I think one person here sent theirs back even though they weren't having issues.

Important Safety Recall for Certain Modern Sporting Rifles
Colt’s Manufacturing Company LLC (Colt) has recently discovered a potential safety issue with certain of its semi-automatic only Modern Sporting Rifles (“MSR”). Colt is voluntarily initiating a recall to protect the safety of its customers because of the potential for certain MSRs to discharge unintentionally and because of its commitment to the highest standards of quality and customer satisfaction.

To prevent the possibility of death or serious personal injury, you should immediately stop using your MSR and not load or fire it until you have determined if it is affected, and it has been upgraded if necessary.

Under certain conditions, it is possible that some Colt MSRs may discharge a second round when the trigger is released with a live round in the chamber. Colt has identified the cause of this condition as being hammers installed in certain MSRs that do not meet Colt’s specifications. The issue will be corrected by replacing the hammer in affected MSRs.

The recall only covers the following MSRs manufactured beginning on March 5, 2021: AR15A4, CR6700A4, CR6920, CR6920-EPR, CR6920MPS-B, CR6921, CR6921-EPR, CR6933, CR6933-EPR, CR6960, LE6920-EPR, LE6920MPS-B, LE6920-OEM1, LE6920-OEM2, LE6920-R, LE6933-EPR, SP633784, and LE6920SOCOM. These MSRs could still be for sale at dealers TODAY.

The chart to the right lists all the serial numbers for those models that may potentially be subject to the recall.

I've heard some grumbling about Colt outsourcing components and sacrificing quality. But other than this trigger issue I can't recall any other recent problems.

I think that was a specific model that was a company that got the colt logo use of trademark that made those.

If your Colt has Schmid Tool trigger parts you have nothing to worry about.

Kinda old news, but still not too bad to bring it up again.

I had 2 rifles, purchased same day, 1 number apart for SN that were affected. I pulled the triggers and put in SSA triggers in their place. Threw the other ones out. I usually keep the GI trigger for a spare, but there’s no reason to take a chance.

i’ve had 2 geissele super 3 gun triggers go F/A after about 1000 rounds. changing the disconnector springs fixed it but then it would come back

guessing those triggers are on the thin edge of tolerances.

Looks like a Colt Commando I have in Form 4 jail is impacted.

I’ve had great service from Colt in the past.

When I was doing my SBR, I bought it and failed to do a proper check. After engraving and paperwork was completed, I notice the rear pin was way out of spec. I called Colt and let them know the issue. RMA was issued the same day and within 2 days I had a brand new lower with same serial number with LE markings shipped to my house. Zero issues with them.

I used to have a direct contacts to Colt LE side of production, I’ll looked up my phone to see if I still have it.

EDITED TO ADD: 860-232-4489.
