Colt Sporter Stripped Receivers. These are popping up in several places for sale. Are these real "COLT" receivers? And why has Colt started selling these. They appear to be a really good deal for a Colt product.

They aren't really Colt receivers.  I think they are licensed and are the same as the Anderson lowers with an integral trigger guard.

Did some research and found this:

Quoted from "Tactical Life" Magazine Jun 6, 2014 by Doug Larson

"Colt has a sterling reputation for producing quality AR-15s and M16s, and has partnered with a company that can uphold that reputation in the manufacture of competition and sporting ARs. Bold Ideas Texas fit the bill and produces the CSR-1516, as well as other Colt-branded products, in its Breckenridge, Texas, plant under license from Colt.

Not a "real" colt
