    Ive never owned a SOLGW rifle but IraqGunz gave them a big thumbs up, which is good enough for me. I did buy small parts kits from them that I never had issues with them.

    My only complaint about my 6920 is the lower is not truly milspec due to the material left preventing a larger drop in trigger. The older Colts have the similar added crap to prevent auto including the open non milspec BCG. Colt has always gone the extra mile to differentiate their rifles from the real deal. Hope they stop this in newer models. The added weight in the lower is a negative, and doubtful a stiffer lower is beneficial. Added material on the upper would be beneficial and the weight would be a good trade off like the HK416.

    I would like to see Colt Defense switch to a Geissele fore end or go with the 6940 type monolithic type without the heavy picatinny rails.

    Your post doesn’t make sense. You say colt adds weight by adding the bridge on the lower to prevent full auto (adds 2 ounces max). Then you say that colt should go with a 6940 type rail (Heavy). Hk 416/Sig 516 front end heavy. You are all over the place with your post. Reel it in so it actually makes sense.

    Also, pretty much any trigger drops in so another falsehood by you. Keep your fact in line. It can lead others to be believe misinformation. Read a little more before posting falsehoods. We will all be better for it.

    You're confused. Read the details. I said add more material to the upper not lower: restore milspec. I also said monolithic without picatinny. I did not say anything about adding pistons or other HK upper features. Not all triggers drop in. Facts. Get over yourself.

    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/

    Exactly, the only thing different are the markings. Unlike what supposed "experts" were claiming earlier in this thread.
