    I bought a new 6920 yesterday.

    I admit I don’t know everything about guns l, but this the first time I’ve seen an A over the MPC on a bolt. I also had to wipe a lot of dirty oil off the entire rifle, it was dripping wet. If I’d shot it before wiping it down, I’d be sprayed with oil. The cage number is on the upper receiver, the barrel, butt stock, and under charging handle.

    Good deal. You have a quality piece of hardware, and even if you're already good to go in rifles, it is nice to add one of those to the safe. When the crazy dies down, I'd like to do the same thing.

    Well I paid $1100 + tax. I’m sure that it go down $200 if the politicians stop threatening a ban on them.

    $1100 seems pretty solid regardless of who is in office. Colt has a problem with market fluctuations regarding pricing. When something is sold cheaply, people tend to think that is what an item should always sell for.

    Congrats on a great AR, what do you plan to do with it, or how do you plan to outfit it?

    The A is a stamp from whoever that is that made the bolt.

    Now I know what an 80s Cadillac fan felt like.

    It’s still a Colt bolt and IMO you have an AR that’s as good as anything out there.

    Especially at that price. You did good.

    A lot of people don’t like the new carbine markings but I think they look good. I like simple and the engraving is done nicely.
