[ARCHIVED THREAD] - 6920 question

Posted: 11/2/2016 11:36:02 PM EDT

For any of you who have recently purchased a new LE6920, are there T numbers on the upper receiver? Was looking at one at my local shop and noticed no T numbers on the upper receiver. And yes it is a true 6920. Box says "LE 6920 2013 Configuration". Serial number started somewhere around LE503000. I've got a call into Colt but thought I'd ask here.

Some released in the past few months do not have T numbers.

I just bought a OEM 1 and Expanse rifles and the serials range from LE406XXX and LE416XXX,with barrel dates of 5/16 on the OEM1, but 506XXX?, how many lowers do they make in a month, week?

I was intrigued so I bought it. I noticed the box states "223 Remington" instead of the usual "556 MM". That and the missing T numbers are the only thing different from my older 6920s

Is the lower marked .223?

No, standard 6920 M4 nomenclature and it is stamped 5.56 MM on the lower receiver and the barrel.

What do the markings on the barrel say?

Not a 6920 but, I just got the updated Expanse (CE2000) which was manufactured by Colt on 6/28/16 does not have any T numbers on the upper receiver either.

My last 6920 (8/2016) has the T marks.

i believe you got one that slipped through.

Seems Colt has gone mix and match on their rifles.

No 2 seem to be alike. Seems to correlate with the release of the Expanse series.

I don't like the smell of it.
