They do offer some in the 1/9 twist. They also offer all the LE guns as well (which is how I get mine).
All Colt AR's are made by Colt Defense (so all the same no matter if you are a .Mil customer, LE customer or Joe 6 Pack).

[B]Thanks for the Colt education guys!:smile: I like the M4 our Uncle assigned me for OIF(sure beat the M16A1 I had back in my 82d days!)so wanted to stick with a carbine configuration. I don't plan on hanging anything but a SureFire light and a small(thinking MagPul)vertical grip,so I can live with two small rail pieces for that as opposed to a 4 sided rail set-up.That's why the oval handguards are ok with me. Thinking either a T1 Micro Aimpoint or an EOTECH..not sure yet. Like my Harley and my two Colt 1911's..this rifle will have KISS-simple changes done over time. NOW I wait for the final "go get it now" from my HH6. Hope it's soon!:dance3:
Isn't colt coming out with a piston AR that will be available in Coyote Bronze? also, I did hear they were going to stop doing the complicated roll marks and have it just plain say "M4" or "AR-15" ect...
In other words, there's probably more options coming soon. For sure with the SP/CM901
One last question.....is there any disadvantage,practically speaking,to the "pencil" barrel on the 6720? I don't expect burning through 500-1000 rounds at every shooting session so I would assume the lighter barrel should be a non-issue. THANKS guys!:D
my 6720 came with MBUS front and rear sights rather than the Matech.
It also has quad rails on it.
It's just a little lighter, it's the old barrel profile from the M-16; if you didn't mind the weight of the M4 the civilian 16 inch version you'll like it just fine. I love mine, have it set up like my M4.

Is the 6720 1/9 or 1/7 twist?
