Hey guys, I've been wondering this for a long time, did Colt ever make a lower receiver with all the A2 upgrades (mag fence, small pivot pin, reinforced receiver extension, etc) that was marked "AR-15" or were they only marked
Sporter or something??


Inquiring minds want to know......

They did, I has a Govt carbine that had all those features and was marked AR15 Govt Carbine, but it had a sear block and large fire control pins. I beleive that model 6520 and the very rare 6721 were the only ones with the features that were marked AR15, I think.
