My new one (6943ck) I just received from Botach a couple weeks ago was everything I expected.
Botach was quick to ship and easy to track. I’ve had zero issues on 10+ orders.

Bcg is worth $175 alone if its C marked old style.....dang good price.  Just hard to know how beat up they maybe.  Usually they show more wear than they were actually shot.  Dang it I didnt need to see this.

He bought new, not a used dept turn-in. Likely this will be "you get what you get". Ad says "all sales final".

Good luck everyone!

MBUS Pro is metal, smaller and worth twice as much as the regular plastic MBUS.

Not too bad boys.  So far these all look like early varients with no steel insert in the cam pin channel, no patent # and no locking front sight.
Usage looks minimal, should be good shooters.

Mine was a new drop of ck uppers. There are many pics in a separate thread.
The front sight locks just like it does on all my other 6940’s.

Some of pics posted are from LE trade in uppers. It’s a little confusing.
Those trade in uppers are sweet. Congrats to those who jumped on them.

Or I may have misunderstood. It’s 2022, I take nothing for granted.

I don’t think 3 of them in that pic are Colt barrels. 2nd from the top looks legit with a .750”  gas block, and 4th down with a .625”.

The rest have a different profile forward of the gas block.  Can’t say for sure but SOLGW 11.5” barrels have a similar profile to them, maybe some others as well.

Yes, the 4th one down is the earlier iteration of the 6933 with .625" journal and no bayonet lug. I think they originally came with M4LE lowers.

Here's mine on a SBR'd M4 lower.



I'd be tempted to get one if they guaranteed all Colt, but "ALL SALES FINAL, POLICE DEPT USED, CONDITIONS VARY, PARTS MAY VARY" is not encouraging.

At $399, they might be worth the gamble.  3 out of the 5 in that pic have Colt skinny handguards, carry handle is worth a few bucks.  All uppers in the pic are “C” stamped other than the cage code upper that looks stamped.

Pretty sure you could re-coup your money on parts even if it wasn’t a Colt barrel.

Specialized Armament can modify them to use KAC rail covers and they look pretty bad ass with them. Unfortunately they will only do it if you are having certain other work done so it isn't a cheap option. It will also take quite a while before they get to it but it will be pretty sweet when it's done.
