Brian,

This gentleman is selling Troy rail covers for $10 a set.  I think they are the same thing.  I have no affiliation with him, but it seems like a pretty good price for a set of three.

http://www.ar15.com/forums/topic.html?b=7&f=25&t=788150&light=

Best Regards,

Hey, thanks for the heads-up!  At that price I really can't lose.  I just ordered a set.  I can't wait to give 'em a try.
Thanks again!

I bet it was a bad, low powered tula round that hit its target at about 50 yards and came straight back and bitch slapped Shawn in the face.

Ive caught stuff in the hands and a .45 bullet jacket to the thigh before, not lucky enough to catch one in the face yet.

62.7cm

ETA: I measured my 6721...not a 6940 but the lenght should be the same

For those that have the 6940, how much lighter is the gun compared to a 6920 with aftermarked rails?



Is it worth getting the 6940 or should I get the 6920 and add rails?  With the 6920 I can modify it more, or am I wrong???

Finally got mine yesterday, date on barrel 09-09, date on birth bag 09-10, called colt with S.N. left factory 2 weeks ago 05-11?  Den40 I think 6940 spec sheet says 6.8lb, spec sheet for 6920 says 5.65lbs but I'd bet thats w/o carry handle
can anyone else post the barrel date stamp and birth bag date curiousity overload. will post pics when optics planet opmod gets here.

I'm thinking of ordering a SP6940 upper from Colt's website. Are the uppers backordered? If so, how long will it take for me to receive the upper? Thanks!

I have mine in 11.5" above.  

Of course, it's a custom job...

Yeah, the LE6943 is going to be 11.5" and use a government profile barrel instead of the lightweight barrel like the LE6933. It's a factory SBR and I want it.

I noticed that Clyde's has the complete 6944 in stock.  Do you know of anynody that sells just the upper?

10/20/2011 11:16:51 PM EDT
[Last Edit: Predator][Edited] [#48]
Nope. Clyde's is the only place I have even see the gun. And they have it in stock...

Buy the gun, sell the lower. Would be cheaper than buying an upper by itself anyway. I imagine the 6944 has the M4LE marked factory SBR lower. Those can easily be sold for $500-$600 usually. Some people get $900-$1k for them. de-registered of course.

I wouldn't pay $900-$1000 for it, but I could probably swing your first price range.  If there is anyone out ther with a M4LE lower, please let me know via a message.

I was getting a 6940 from ratworxusa.com today (local to me) and pretty sure they have these lowers for sale.
