What makes a LE Colt, LE only?  LE 6920 is a legal gun for anyone to own, I'm wondering if there is anything different about LE only guns.

I believe it's just a carryover from the "ban" days, when that configuration (the current 6920) could not be sold to civilians and they used the LE Only rollmark to underline that. When the ban expired they left the rollmark.

the roolmark is left on for states that still have a ban  i.e. CA,CT<NY etc. anyone can have an LE gun  unless its FA




I sure would like to make a crack about a 6940 about now

no big deal. you are just finding out what the rest of us have experienced for years.

BTW I doubt colt cant make the rear sight.  I would say the new IAR contract is what put the kabosh on the "6940"

Or maybe the plan all along was to release it at the Shot Show and you're just somebody with half-assed information from your daddy's buddy?

So much of what comes to mind could get this thread locked eventually.  



Was that just as bad?

Dude, you just can't go away or shut the f––- up, can you?  We all know about the 6940.  Some of us know guys who are actually getting them.  And we know what the missing part is.  

Here's a hint, , it's the non-Colt electronic part.  Now just go away.

El Abogado,
Sounds like you need a lesson in forum etiquette.   Sixgun Jr. just asked a simple question and you told him to "go-away", along with profanity.  To show the man he is, he did not respond to your aggression.  That is how I brought him up––a good, decent, honest, hard working patriotic American.

Our God, common decency, honesty, integrity, and guts is what made this country great. Why try to bring it down to a third world status?

Grow up––This board does not belong to you. It belongs to all firearms loving people and good American citizens.    It takes a concerted effort by us all to show the rest of the world who we are. If you disagree with a fellow board member, tell him or her in a polite way. That is what makes America so great. We are free to disagree with no fear of retribution. My Mother, (Sixgun Jr's grandmother)  grew up in Nazi Germany and had many stories to tell of retribution.  Her Father, a good German and chemical engineer, was basically forced by the Nazi's to serve the entire war in a lab, with little time to be with his family.   We have it good here.  Lets keep it that way.

And no, I am not fighting his battles––-just doing my part to make the world a better place.  I am a senior levergunner over at Paco Kelly's " Leverguns.Com ".  I sign on as "Sixgun". We stand for no profanity or disrespect. Its the first thing you read when the forum comes up.  

Give some respect, you will get it return.   The "General" is a personal friend of mine.
                                                           
                                                          Thank you,
                                                          Sixgun Sr.

Shawn,
As guys, and especially ones who love firearms, we tend to let our egos get ahead of common sense.  I do it all the time, but get better as I get older. Its really easy being "bad" from a keyboard, knowing full well the other dude can't come over and give you a verticle buttstroke with an M14.

We are all much more alike than we are different, especially the gun crowd. I bet if everyone (at the Colt forum) here was together at a bonfire, slamming down some cold ones, we would all agree we were all one.  We need to be as our rights are going to be in for a real fight in the coming months.

No big deal on who's right and who's wrong on this issue. Its not worth the mindless investigation.

I'm a Winchester & Colt guy  (leverguns & the  single action variety) and I try to network with all good gun guys whether they like Colts, 'Smiths, Rugers, Marlins, or even Mossbergs
I must admit though, that Lorcins, Ravens, Bersa's and other ghetto junk never get my attention, but............not everyone can afford good guns and everyone needs to defend themselves so............leave them alone––––––-hear that Democrats??

You and I agree on the 1911––––To me, its the only auto worth having  (remember guys-me!)  How many other things were invented a hundred years ago and are still in major production with little modifications?

Now, on to that 6940: (man, thats a sore spot)  Its no big deal as the only change is the rail system with the flip up sights.  We should be seeing them in the next several weeks––––––––(I've heard that before)––––––––––––––Levergunner  aka Sixgun

Levergunner/Sixgun Sr./Sixgun Jr., or whoever you really are:

First off, you ought to know what the facts are before entering into a discussion.  The clown you claim as your son, posting as Sixgun Jr., has handled himself poorly and been warned already about his trollish behavior.  What was the subject?  The 6940.  Go back and read his posts, if you approve of his behavior in those posts, then (assuming you really are his father), you failed in your parental responsibilities.  I hope you didn't raise any other children.  He is a petty little braggart who doesn't know the meaning of the word "humility" and lives vicariously through his daddy's connections.  You must be very, very proud of such progeny. . . .

Second, don't talk about God and Service to me unless you know who I am, what I've done, and how I've served.  And don't raise Nazi Germany with me.  I can go toe-to-toe with you on WWII Kraut stories.  I had family members on the Gestapo Blacklist and a great uncle was captured by the Soviets in June/July 1944 and then died in a gulag after the war.  In short, STFU.

Third, polite corrections?  We tried that with your idiot son.  He didn't take a hint and he got slapped down.  See "first off", above.

Fourth, I don't care who you are on another website.  What matters is who you are in real life and who you are here.  You've made a poor first impression.

Fifth, had your son given some respect, he would have gotten some in return.  He didn't, but he did get what he deserved.

Sixth, the "General"?  He's a friend of yours?  Really?  LT. General Keys?  Does he know that your "son" is showing his ass on the internet, telling everybody how he's getting an LE-only firearm that is limited to 500 pieces, because you and the "General" are buddies?  Does he know that?  I'd be happy to tell him for you, asshat.

Seventh, are you in Colorado or SE Pennsylvania?  I am from CO and it is an easy drive up to SE PA. . . .  I don't talk "big" on the internet unless I'm willing to live it in person.  You?


ETA:

No big deal on who's right and who's wrong on this issue. Its not worth the mindless investigation.


"Mindless investigation?"  Figuring out who the responsible party is, is truly a no-brainer:  Sixgun Jr. - The mouthbreather you claim as your son. . . .  Helluva job you did as a father.

what does ego have to do with it?  your son acted like an ass in previous threads,   then insults colts  IN the colt forum by  saying RRA was better, big deal, its his opinion, but does it in the COLT FORUM, Then he  has a little hissy fit over how he is getting this supposed 6940 and how we cant get one, cause he is connected and His daddy knows someon etc.  yeah thats really mature.

then he feels the need to take pics of guns to show off that no one cares about to "prove" to us he isnt a liar.

and lastly are you telling me you are gonna come "buttstroke me with a M14"?   I see this thread is headed the same way as sixguns last thread

Shawnmt6601 is on the money. . . .  I doubt the "General" would care for your son's childish behavior and his lack of respect for Colt products.  But, hey, rock on with your bad selves. . . .  you don't need us.  You have the "General" and that gun range business in Deleware and PA.

What I don't understand is why someone who's father knows "The General" personally and has the inside info track to the 6940 would have to ask a common knowledge question about the LE6920.  Is it just me, or does that not add up?

I'm not full of hate at all so put away the popcorn, Jr. and answer the question.  You have history of trolling this board so that's why this thread is suspect.  If your privy to Colt inside info then how are you not privy to something as basic as the legality of LE6920 ownership for "civilians?"

When I see stuff like this I think someone is trying to drum up negative attention based on your track record.
