Currently, Gunbroker has listings for over $600. A few months ago I bought a gray Gen 1 here in the EE for $385 and right after an OD Gen 2 popped up in a local Facebook group for $300...so I ended up with two Federal rails and one pissed wife |

I am interested to see if that would be a better match for the LE6933. |

I think I have an older dark OD Hogue overmolded grip from a C7 build.

I posted about my gas block here after I got it back. |

Is this the OD Hogue you are looking for? Compared to a GI OD Blasting Cap Box on left, Foliage Green 504 Fastex on right, on top of a GI OG507 Patrol Cover (PC or Patrol Cap- Cap, Field, Cotton, M1951) I don't have a particular attachment to it, I just liked the feel of the rubber coating, had it on a C7 clone. Would horse trade it for an OD rubber MagPul Grip. |

CTR or Colt stock OD green is only for Regional SWAT rifles. I wasn't sure about the color of the CTR (whether FDE is in use). |

I think the Mk4 adoption was FBI-wide from the beginning, but I'm not that knowledgeable about the history. |

My rifle is I guess much closer to an HRT gun save the color, I guess I need to order a FDE Mk4. Is it still the 10" "FBI" rail? And what's the can, a FDE RC or a black mini? |

View Quote Just FYI, Geissele currently has the DDC MK4 in stock on their website. https://geissele.com/10-super-modular-rail-mk4-federal-m-lok.html (If links aren't allowed, let me know and I'll remove it. I believe Geissele is in good standing on this site though.) |

I wasn't sure about the color of the CTR (whether FDE is in use). 3ACR_Scout thanks for the reply, so a black gen 1 05-430 would be correct with the Spuhr mount and T-2. A black government charging handle? or standard milspec. I have an od ctr stock but that can be changed easily enough as can the pistol grip. As for the buffer tube the anodized od green does look great with the od rail but again if its not correct, why. Have a few other pieces that may or may not work. |

You know looking back I can't tell what color this HRT rails are, the pics are too blurry. Are there clear ones?
It's too bad if it is DDC because I love the OD, who knows. |

Yes, all the FBI variants use different colors of the 10" Mk4 Federal rail. I'm not sure about suppressors. They've come up a couple times, but since they seem to be used only by HRT members, and photos of them are hard to come by, I don't recall what's been posted about them. I believe they use Surefire adapters and suppressors, but that's about all I remember.

Have a few other pieces that may or may not work. Black is used by regular field agents, and they don't use the Spuhr mounts, from what I've seen here. The FBI approved the Sig Romeo 4 for field agents, along with Aimpoint H1, H2, T1, and T2 models (here's a reference article). Non-HRT (SWAT and field agents) use Daniel Defense Aimpoint micro mounts. The colors and associated accessory variations are broken down in the first post. ARogueNinja, the original author of this topic, was good enough to paste the info in there that I compiled from various people in this thread, including a couple FBI agents. You have to expand the quote under my username at the bottom of the original post to see this list: HRT: DDC Mk4 handguard, 11.5" Colt HRT heavy barrel, Aimpoint T-2 on Spuhr mount, (not sure about the stock) black or FDE(?) CTR or Colt stock Regional SWAT: OD Green Mk4 handguard, 11.5" Colt LE6933 government profile barrel, Aimpoint T-2 on Daniel Defense mount, OD green CTR or Colt stock Vehicle Teams: Grey Mk4 handguard, 11.5" Colt LE6933 government profile barrel, Sig Romeo, FAB Defense PTK AFG, Maxim Defense collapsible stock Field Agent: Black Mk4 handguard, 11.5" Colt LE6933 government profile barrel, Aimpoint T-2 on Daniel Defense mount or Sig Romeo, black CTR or Colt stock Originally Posted By Slu54: You know looking back I can't tell what color this HRT rails are, the pics are too blurry. Are there clear ones? It's too bad if it is DDC because I love the OD, who knows. Several FBI members have confirmed here that HRT is using the DDC rail, but pictures are scarce. I'm not sure which page in this topic had the photos of HRT members with Mk4 rails. I've looked for them a couple times but got tired of paging through this long topic. |
