    Colt Modern Sporting Rifle (MSR) Safety Recall

    I thought I would make you guys aware of a safety recall published by Colt today. The recall has occurred because Colt identified that some hammers that were out of Colt specification were used in some rifle/carbine assembly since roughly March of 2021.

    They have set up a good website that has a lot of information to include firearm model, lower receiver markings and serial number ranges affected by the safety recall. The website is a one stop shop for information and serial number submission to Colt. The website is https://coltrepairmsr.com/

    We defend and we build a way of life, not for America alone, but for all mankind. Ours is a high duty, a noble task.---Franklin Delano Roosevelt May 26th, 1940.

    Damn…

    My 6920 is literally on the way to my dealer. Should be here on Monday. I’ll have to see if they will be shipping it back out on Tuesday.

    Just ask for a new fire control group and install yourself.

    I'm not sure why most people on this board wouldn't do exactly that.

    Very doubtful they will just send you the parts to install yourself. Especially not trigger parts...

    I'd take it as an opportunity to upgrade the trigger and be done with it. Hate sending shit back when you can fix it yourself for a hundy, get a better trigger, and avoid the headaches. But I guess to some it would lose its shiny veneer as it would no longer be all original Colt......

    Follow-Up To My Original Post

    Here is a screen image of what you will see if you have an affected serial number. I got this when I entered the serial number for my CR6920-EPR.
