i just read in the black rifle 2 that in 2001 Colt marked the bolt with a large C where the mpc goes to indicate that it was intended for commercial sale. It didnt say anything about a CS in there but CS could deffinantly mean "C" comercial "S" sale. BRII shows a pic of the bolt and it was done with an engraving pen by hand .

I just recently purchased a Colt "CS" A1 length stock which actually has the letters raised on the stock itself. From what I have heard, they are pretty hard to come by. It is a very, very nice unit. Since I have had it, I have wondered what it stood for. I figured "Colt" something.
Will be nice to know if someone has a definite answer. |

In your case, "Colt Sporter". They came on the R6530 Sporter Lightweight carbines in 1991. |

That was in reference to the buttstock markings. SPORTER bolts were not marked CS, but some buttstocks were. |

I have a few colt le 6920's and the last one i purchased NIB has a CS marked bolt. I called colt and asked why the bolt was marked CS compared to MPC like the others i have. The guy at colt advised me that as long as it was marked with a C it was a colt bolt and refused to give me anymore info other than to tell me sometimes bolts are marked differently.

Calling Colt is not at all a sure way to get good info, never know what moron you are going to talk to. Notice that variablebinary (Spelling?) bolt does not have a C on it, but it is the correct bolt: ar15.com/forums/topic.html?b=3&f=118&t=275093 |
