Hi, I am looking to buy one of these carry handles, can anyone identify what brand they are? I see A-9 and A A markings. The guy selling them thinks they are either RRA or DPMS. Any help is greatly appreciated! http://img75.imageshack.us/img75/4127/saleparts0015ii.jpg http://img75.imageshack.us/img75/9888/saleparts0034st.jpg http://img75.imageshack.us/img75/1103/saleparts0027oq.jpg Thanks, Derek |
Is that marking on your carry handle mean Colt? |
I don't know... But Colt used them, and it works for me... |

The birds head is Cardinal Forge The "splintered A", is actually an "A" over a "H", and stands for Anchor Harvey and the successive letters are batch codes. Bushmaster, colt, DPMS, RRA and many others use both company's products. |
That's a schweeet Diemaco upper on your COLT there.

All those carry handles look like Colt to me. Or maybe they are Bushmaster.  Damn, they very well could be RRA.  Now that you mention it, they could be DPMS.  My point is that once separated from the parent rifle, there's no way to tell who's carry handle is who's. The markings are forging marks from the company that makes the raw forging. |
