Here's an original Colt factory 733 parts kit I had a few years ago when Botach was selling them (with a few department-specific changes - the pistol grip, end plate, and selector):

No bayonet lug might have been the most common configuration, but these exist in Colt's own literature with a mix of upper types and with bayonet lugs. Besides Colt was known for having transitional or inconsistent features for models. Believe a few prior service members in the forum indicated they even had access to 733's with A2 uppers.

AIM has used uppers in stock. May be a good fit for these lowers.

Yes. AIM is an industry partner and has their own forum here. The only thing wrong with posting links to their site is that ARFCOM's referral link system sucks and give us crap like shown above.

@DanielAU is the SBR Commando lower still in stock? When I’m on my computer the add to cart option is not available for the SBR lower but when I’m on my phone I can add it to cart. Just want to make sure they are in fact still in stock before ordering. Tyia!

I just tried using my PC and the SBR lower half added just fine.  It's probably a firewall issue of some sort.  Just use your phone to place the order.

Nice lower. No brainer for me if next build. (And the no brains is a good thing in my case)
Not that it matter and just out of curiosity, I didn’t know then’pony’ patent or TM had expired.
Wonderful days for the gunnuts!

Sorry for the hundredth time, Parkinson’s sucks.

fyi, my Arms Unlimited Colt Commando Form1 (won’t do that again):came out wonderfully.
Entirely worth the hassles (of my FFL), AU, was flawless.

Did not purchase Upper from Palmetto it was a local Le trade-in that I scored. I did order one of the M4 Commando lowers for sale at PSA last night to pair with this upper.

Arms unlimited has the commando lowers for $500 (not tax), so this is now better than the PSA deal, since psa charges tax
