| Where can I find a new Colt Carry Handle with rear sight installed? My 6933 (wait was only three months for the stamp) came with a Magpul rear sight which I want to replace. There is one advertised on Gunbroker as Colt new but the seller will not respond to my few and simple questions. |

Palmetto State Armory Mil-Spec Carry Handle Appears identical to my Colt carry handle except the PSA logo. |

Here, OP- Colt carry handle.
It isn't cheap, but you'll know it's Colt (since that seems to be what you're after). |
I'm being cheap today- CTD has them for 20-30 dollars, if you look u can find them with NM peep hole and markings too. I just bought one from a fella in AZ, tactile clicks, etc. If it's a Colt they gonna check what it came with... 
Have seen some new with the magpul pop-ups. |

There is one advertised on Gunbroker as Colt new but the seller will not respond to my few and simple questions. If the seller is "scottryan" he sells legit stuff. His Colt carry handle price seems a bit high to me, but he advertises them as new, IIRC. He also pops up here on arfcom every once in a while. |

| Why because back up sights aerent as strong why because optics fail why because if everything else fails youll always be able to aim and use the rifle...redundancy is a good thing I have an M4s aimpoint and a GGG BUIS and on my gear I have a zeroed for my rifle tucked away in the pouch I use for the aimpoint with an allen wrench to take off the buis if I have to. |

The EE is the place to look for reasonably priced Colt carry handles. |

stick with a good handle, UTG and NcStars are not so good. Colts are pretty hard to pin down for sure, best to get one off a factory fresh rifle, or from someone in the now and trustworthy. the only thing better than a removable carry handle is a fixed carry handle A1 upper. |

Is a carry handle off of a Colt identical to one not off a Colt? I mean, excluding the Chinese stuff and what-not. You wouldn't be able to tell the difference as they aren't marked in any special way. Just get one from a reputable source and forget about it being a Colt. |
