    I'll have to get back with you. I don't have pics at this time....

    Let me see.... I think there's a deep "0" stamped into the barrel too. It's close to the delta ring where the barrel tapers down from the chamber area.

    Other than that, it has the usual "C MP 1/7 5.56 NATO" out front. I'll have to give it another look over when I get to the house.

The outside of the barrel looks a little beat up, but the inside looks like its never been shot. I cleaned it and all that I pulled out was dust.


    Every Colt barrel since 1995 is dated like XX/XX

    I can tell by just the way it looks, the finish, machining, FSB, etc that your barrel is Colt.

    Thanks Scottryan thats what I figured! We have a few stripped C Marked BC and some CMP Bolts in a drawer so I figured it must have came from the same place. The rifling and the chamber all look good so this will be my next project barrel after I get it refinished.
