Take a look at the Colt Mfg. 2012 catalog on page 38 which shows this LE6920MP-R which also have an SP prefix serial number. It is not a regular Colt model, it is a Talo Distributors exclusive model with Magpul components also Troy drop-in rails and the factory with their past history just uses whatever lowers are available that could either have Colt Defense or Colt Mfg. Co. markings, same with the serial number prefix they vary. You're correct, distributors' special limited edition models are a limited production run, some other new special edition models like the 6920SOCOM will have a Knight's Armament M4 RAS rail 5000 are scheduled to be built and the new 6920SOCOMII which has a Daniel Defense M4A1 FSP Rail Interface System (RIS II), there will be 1000 built in 2012. The only models I know not assembled by the Colt factory are the Competition CR 3 gun models, Expert CRE-18 model and PRO CRP-18 model, they're made for Colt by a licensed Oregon 3 gun gunsmith.
