Does this hang tag NORMALLY ship with a new Colt carbine?
Serialized to the carbine with an in tolerance first group of 2.0 inches. Neat (no adjustment needed). Shows various stages of inspection and test fire group size. My other Colt stuff never had this with it. Seems rare. Perhaps not meant for the public and used within Colt only? The carbine was made in 2016.

I had been a Colt AR owner for 49 years now and had 12 new rifles and carbines, currently have four.
Never received that kind of tag, probably the factory forgot to remove it before shipping. I received a factory tag on one of my non Colt AR carbine which was a LMT (Lewis Machine & Tool) model Defender 2000 lower half way back in 2005, thinking it was also a mistake. That same year 2005 I bought a new LMT M4 carbine 16" barrel complete upper half and had no tag. |

I believe it was an error mistake by Colt.
This tag should not have been included to any customer. Just think if my carbine was a lemon and the tag showed poor test fire and repairs needed or steps rejected. Things Colt would never want a customer to know about. They likely would have corrected any bad stuff, but tag would still show negative towards the company. I love it. Nice to have something rare. |

That is rare. I remember getting one back in the early 90's. I didn't think much about it then because I was a shooter not a collector.

FWIW, there was a 2017 socom in the EE that had the tag with it.

So it is like they ship with it once in a blue moon when the guy forgets to remove it at Colt.
Pretty damn rare. |
