    You aren't the only one. The absence of a F marked sight base matters to me. I can live with the m4 feed ramps as well, but the FSB is a deal breaker. I want a rifle that is as analogous to the m16a4 as possible (that's the whole point of purchasing this rifle...otherwise id just pick up the bcm). Im waiting until these things are universally shipping with the F marked FSB.

    I picked up a Colt AR15A4-FDE from Bud's a few weeks ago at a great price. I was a little let down when I didn't see the F on the FSP because I toyed with the idea of turning it into an M16A4 clone. I had to turn the post a couple of notches before it zeroed not a big deal. I may order the taller post from Bushmaster.

    Much obliged to anyone who can point me in the direction of a vendor who has the newer (post summer 2014) rifles in stock.

    Every online vendor I've spoken with has the older (hit or miss F-mark) stocked in their inventory.

    Have you tried calling Colt customer service to see if they can help?

    Sure have. All they can tell me is that all current production rifles they are shipping out to their distributors have the F-marked FSB and that it has been like that this past summer.

    Yes, have a PM into Grant. He typically does not really have ETA for items though so I am not expecting that much.

    It says right here that the rifles are in stock and have the "F" FSB. > http://www.gandrtactical.com/cgi-bin...ion&key=AR15A4

    Crap. That happened to me when I tried to add an HK VP9 to my cart a while ago.
