Has Colt ever shipped rifles with tick mark selectors?

So, long story short, I bought some parts described as "Colt take off parts lot - Safeties/Guards/Latches
All new take-offs from various model Colts" that I do not believe to be Colt parts.


The selectors and trigger guards look to be PSA parts.

I expected the safeties to be the newer reversible no tick safeties, what I received have tick marks, and are not reversible.  The trigger guards have pretty rough machining.  These parts look very much like parts that I have received in PSA parts kits.

As far as I know only select fire Colt's come with the tick mark selectors.

I just bought a new LE6920 10/15 production and it doesn't have tick marks on the selector.

I had never seen any tick marks on selectors on any civilian AR models and I had been a continuous Colt owner for 44 years.

The only ones I had seen them on pictures are on military issue select fire weapons.

Even when Colt started to mark the selector markings on the right side of the receivers starting in mid 2010, I had not seen any tick marks.

These are my current Colt AR I have:
AR # 11:   LE6920 M4 CARBINE made in 2012
# 10:   SP6920 SPORTER M4 CARBINE made in 2011
# 9:   AR6721 TACTICAL CARBINE made in 2010
# 8:   AR6721 AR-15A3 TACTICAL CARBINE made in 2002
# 7:   MT6601 MATCH TARGET MATCH HBAR rifle made  during the AWB era 1994-2004

Colt AR I used to have: (sold them to buy newer Colt models)
# 6:   R6530 SPORTER LIGHTWEIGHT carbine made in 1991
# 5:   R6551 SPORTER TARGET MODEL rifle made in 1991
# 4:   R6600 AR-15A2 HBAR SPORTER rifle made in 1986
# 3:   R6420 AR-15A2 SPORTER II carbine made in 1985
# 2:   R6401 AR-15A2 SPORTER II rifle made in 1984
# 1:   R6000 AR-15 SP1 SPORTER rifle made in 1971

THIS........

That.  If they have tick marks and they're semiauto-only selectors, they aren't Colt.  If they're auto selectors, they may be Colt.

Anyone have a pix of this elusive tick mark selector

 

Colt factory SBR = tick mark.

those arnt colt

some factory colt parts do have the s on them , stag,  I think,,,, but not the tick mark like that.  if you look at a close up of a real m4 they have tick marks but not like that.  real colt select fire safety  has a tick mark just like the one on a factory stag safety.  like a v cut into it.  the 6920 still does not have any tick or selector stops.  maybe one day..

I concur, former armorer here and Colt A2/M4 series selectors are V notched.
