    It's 2021, what's the new LE6920?

    Given that the CR6920 may not be the same beast as the LE6920, who makes 2021's TDP M4 carbine in that magical $1,000 +/- range?

    i don’t think it matters right now. everyone is practicing, sighting in and stockpiling ammo waiting for the next shoe to drop.

    And the CR6920 is still a very viable choice.

    Along with just about any offerings to your spec from the GTG makers.

    Thank you for the info that the CR6920 is still viable!

    When we set out to make a simple duty rifle I had that in mind. Obviously we're using a midgas system... 16" barrel gassed at .076.
    H buffer, sprinco action spring, individual HP/MPI 158c bolt, correct small parts etc

    The torque values for castle nut, barrel but, gas key fastners etc are all correct. Aggressive staking, thread treatments, dry film on receiver extensions etc

    I wanted to make a legitimately enhanced 6920.

    Looks good to me even thought not a M4 as you said....an option nonetheless.

    I haven’t paid close attention to Colt for a few years. I have a couple of CR serial Colts; are they not to be depended upon like my older LE rifles?

    New colts are still great rifles. A lot of people are making assumptions based upon things such as them moving to laser engraved markings instead of the old roll marks etc. If you are a serious user just drive on knowing you have a solid rifle and let the internet argue about the unimportant things.

    I have a CR6920 as well as a CR6940, and I’ve had a few LE6920’s in the past. The new colts are more consistent with their finishing, and the Rosco supplied barrels are fabulous shooters that are properly gassed. I believe the new CR line is as good as the previous LE models and may actually a step up in quality. I get some are less than pleased with the new markings but it makes sense from a manufacturing standpoint.

    Here’s a great article https://looserounds.com/2021/02/01/colt-cr6920-carbine/

    Ain’t that the truth.
    A true "Gun Guy" (or gal) should have familiarity and a modicum of proficiency with most all firearms platforms.
