New Colt M4A1 Socoms...yay or nay?

[indianalex01]

Are you asking because you are considering one? Any Colt is a big yes. These are pretty cool.

Colt is releasing the M4A1 SOCOM again? That’s good news!

[Stopsign32v]

I just want one of the barrels stripped. You guys can keep the rest

[MistWolf]

I want the M4A1 SOCOM for a particular project.

Careful if it’s new lowers or cr marked serial number it likely features the subcontracted bolts, barrels, fcg, and gas blocks. I have two new “LE6920” rifles that are literally renamed CR6920’s and I’m pissed.

And. Here. We. Go…

[MistWolf]

I don't care about that BS. I just want the AR to shoot.

It never fails. 17K the haters always show up. I was thinking the same thing. These idiots buy the gun and then bitch about markings or a prefix in the serial number. They never bitch that BCM is all subcontracted and their serial numbers ect. Let a colt not have a C on the carrier or whatever else and the idiots lose their minds. These people needs to stop buying Colts then.

This particular gun is still listed on Colt's website but I thought it had been discontinued some time ago?:

Show me a BCM bolt or carrier that is NOT marked as such.

(or the stuff BCM had to recall after subbing out and then failing to inspect before releasing)
