Ok, I have a colt M4 Match Target carbine. 16" barrel. I got it back in 2003 or so. I am wanting to have some fun with it. My first question is... What is the "match target?" I can't seem to find any information on it. Some time ago i put on a collapsible stock, as it came with a fake one that did not move. I also added a tower rail and have clipped on a surefire light with a pressure switch. I have a nikon monarch scope that i put on occasionally for varmits. It has a compensator on the barrel instead of a flash suppressor. I guess i wanna know what i have, before i decide to change out anything for looks/performance. Thanks guys!

If you could post some photos it might make it easier to determine what you have.

Does this help at all?

Mine did not look like these though. It has a 16" barrel and had a compensator attached to it when i bought it. the stock looked like it would collapse, but it did not. I bought and put on one that actually did. Other than that the gun is stock the way from Colt.

it looks like it is a MT6400T How does that compare to a 6920 model?

hmm....does anyone know of the differences between the guns? As far as i can tell, it looks like the same internals.....but im not sure.
Edit, i found a couple of threads on this site, and it indicates that the guns internals are the same. Does anyone know for sure? Back in the day, i wanted a M-4, ordered it and this is what i got, never really thought about it.

It is the exact same rifle as a 6920, just set up for AWB states. It has no bayo lug, the stock doesn't collapse and the comp is pinned on with no theads underneath. Depending on when it was built it may have the half-circle bolt carrier. Other than that and the roll mark, it is a 6920.

I was under the impression that all Match Targets were H-Bars?

Match Targets are what were Sporters in the civilian or P.C. version market line up.

no, right now the 6400 is the only MT with govt profile barrel.
till 1999 a 6520style carbine was also offered called "Match Target Lightweight"

The good folks at ADCO can take that "thing" off the end of your barrel and set it up right. ;)
