    NOT. HAPPY.
    How is it out of spec?

    Mag release opening oversized, appears dremeled at factory; mag drops free ok but the release lever wobbles and hangs up outside the lower, marring it.

    On another note a friend asked if I’d sell him my AR15A4, gave me $1K for it. I had not heard Colt’s announcement at the time, and had no idea. Not sure I’d get $1K at the next Crossroads show now, given Colt’s recent announcement.

    Money will go toward a Centurion Arms carbine.

    Please don't beat the pony. Don't turn this into a bitch thread. No reply needed but name a company that hasn't had a defect. Should it happen? no but it does on occasion.

    And yes, 6960 please. It would be sweet to see a 11.5" pistol!

    As mentioned in other threads I had a far more minor issue and. Colt replaced my entire lower the end of 2018. The Conversation was a bid rude but then turned very pleasant. There were only two CS people for all of Colt.

    As for the A4, uppers just went on sale at Arm Unlimited so that could be a sign they intend to start building more than base 6920’s. The on dealer I mentioned was skeptical though.

    I know you said no reply needed, but I’ve had multiple issues of one kind or another over the years with BCG from the three letter company that starts with the letter before C in the alphabet. They have always been responsive and fixed the issues. Hasn’t stopped me from buying or ruined my confidence.

    Or how about the factory Mk18 I purchased from the company with a two word name both starting with the letter after C in the alphabet that had an out of spec lower that resulted in me having to wait over two years to have a good gun due to having to wait not once, but twice for the NFA approval for the original purchase then the replacement lower.

    Or last year my $1200 1-6x LPVO from the company who’s name starts with the letter fifth from last in the alphabet that was defective out of the box.

    I don’t buy junk so yeah, it does happen.

    Please don’t do this.

    What if Colt could offer what we really want-

    How about a M4A1 OEM?

    Or a 6720 OEM?

    I wish they would sell;

    - Complete lowers, can be used as a pistol or rifle.

    - 6960 OEM upper.
    - 6720 OEM upper.
    - M4A1 OEM upper.
    - 6933 OEM upper.
