Just purchased a new 6920, where can I find the date of manufacture?

two places

One: one the plastic bag it came in (in the box)

two: Under the hand-guards. It is stamped on the barrel

Does yours have an M16 bolt carrier?

If so, it is likely it was made in or after march 2005.

That would be consistent with what we have seen around here

Congratulations!!

edit to add: a third option is to call Colt tomorrow and ask them (Customer Service) They will tell you on the phone with only the serial number

Found it thanks.  It was manufactured on 5/05, and it does have the m16 bolt carrier.  What should the mark or logo (for lack of better words) be on the carry handle?
