    I don't believe the Match Target line has been discontinued, but they are generally unavailable right now. Like seemingly everything Colt makes, they manufacture their rifles and carbines in batches. Nothing from the MT line has been made since March, IIRC, and isn't likely to me made again until sometime in early '07.

    6920's are vaporware. If you can find one, get it! I did however manage to pick up a 6721 to stock.

    Lawmens Safety supply in Raleigh,N.C. # 919-779-6141 had some new 6920's last week. Might be a source if anyone is still looking.

    If you live in a ban state then the MT6400C is your only choice, it is a fine rifle (except for the retarded brake).

    If you live in a free state then I would look until you find a 6920.

    Sorry to use the paddles and bring an old thread back to life but I thought it was better than adding a new one since my question is in this one.


    The only 6920 listed in Colts site right now is a LE6920,
    Since I would only be able to get a MT6400C, am I better off getting a Bushmaster M4A3 since I can pay the tax of 200 and get the 14.5 inch model or get the 16.1, And the BM has the fully lined chrome barel and chamber.

    Also what about the 6920 being stated as to be chambered in 5.56, and the 6400 in .223...

    BTW, it would only be a home defense weapon and will shot at the ole cabin maybe 2-3 times a month. But I was ADD advanced in high-school so I can and would prefer to just spend a little more and get the best.
    Would honestly like to have the closet rendition of an M4.

    Thanks Guys,
    Zachery

    i don't beleive you are ever better off with a bushmaster, than a colt. especially, if it will be used in the home defense role. i would pay the extra and get the 6400c. m.h.o.

    Thanks,
    I am trying to figure out what the deal is in NC about the 14.5" barrel stuff.
    I found a used MT6400C in a local store that a guy is selling but he hasn't caled me back yet.
    It was made in 2004 and has a nice ACE skeleton stock full size and it fells so good. This is going to be my first AR-15 purchase and I think it has what I wan't. Mostly the 1:7 barrel to shoot the heavier grain ammunition. I believe the lady at Colt yesterday told me the barrel and chamber are chrome lined also. Oh and BTW, I loved the trigger...It would not move until it broke, at @ 3.5 lbs I am guessing, and I was impressed, reminded me of a good 1911 you know.

    I got a MT6400c during the ban days. When the ban died, I replaced the fixed stock with a Vltor & I sent the upper to ADCO to have barrel threaded so I could add a Flash Suppressor & get rid of that muzzle brake. I have a Bushmaster & never had any problems with it, but the Colt is my favorite. My MT6400C has a chrome-lined chamber & bore and it has 5.56mm chamber, not .223, 1/7 twist

    Why can't you get a LE6920? My friend got one couple weeks ago. I would get a LE6920 if I had the choice.

    I am awaiting a call back from ATF in Charlotte for the "Official" info on that.
    I would prefer the 6920 as I think the 6400 I am looking at is .223, The barrel wouldn't be different from the lower would it.
    I need to call the range and have them check for me, I would rather have the LE6920 b/c of it's designation as 5.56, even on Colts site the MT6400c is labeled as .223.
