    I understand that, but they won't sell me an M4 or M16 and I'm just wondering why they won't state anywhere on their website that their AR-15's are built to the same specs as the M4's and M16's.

    LOL. Yes they will. It is called the LE6920 (16" version) or AR15A4.

    To put in simple english, they don't need to because they ONLY know how to make the M4 and M16 ONE WAY. That way is to follow THEIR TDP.

    If you think about it, in order to have two or three different quality of guns, you would need totally different assembly lines (each with their own parts bins). This is nearly impossible to pull off and eventually you would end up putting cheap parts into a gun that was destined for the Military. To avoid such a problem, all the parts are the same.

    I know you are looking for a black and white answer, but to be honest, the answer to your question is right in front of you.

    Then **** it... don't buy a Colt.

    Go out and buy something that was reverse engineered to emulate a Colt.

    They are identical other than the full auto ability, that was somewhat the point I was making. I think the OP can't see the forest for the trees.

    Why is it so out of line to ever question Colt on this website, why does it generate such anger?

    jmar93, so far the only person on here that really sounds upset is you.

    You have been given your answers by multiple people. Dial down the tone of your remarks.

    Honestly, there is really not much point to this morphed thread anymore. If you have a concern about how the site is run, PM a mod.

    17 posts, 10 in this thread? Just looking to start fights?
    Numerous people have already answered your question. Why are you rejecting their answers? And yes, I run Colt's too and have for years. Issued and personally owned, understand about the TDP and why it can't be published.
    What's driving you to question Colt's materials so deeply that you want to keep beating this horse?
    Send lawyers, guns and money the $#!+ has hit the fan...

    Ping jmar93's IP. I'm betting he's nothing more than a Cockney troll...
