No C Mark on Colt BCG: Deal Killer?

[MistWolf]

My friend at work is wanting to sell me his Colt LE6920 for a pretty good price, it's unfired, new in box. It has a C marked upper, cage code barrel, and MPC marked bolt, but no C mark on the bolt carrier itself.

Colt aficionados, is this reflective at all of lesser quality compared to past 6920s, or is it good to go? I know he didn't pull the carrier, because I was with him when he bought the rifle new. I also know I've read of Colt not having marked their carriers in recent years.

Did you buy the rifle?

Just checked my two 6920s and both have the "C". I'm so glad knowing I can now sleep at night.

I can't find the box.. i must have pitched it.

FYI, When you go to sell a gun, it will typically sell for more and faster if it has the original box and accessories. It's just a perception thing. Guns are just more appealing when they come with everything they did when new.
