if you want one for a m4 clone that doesn't have to be retro correct, try young manufacturing.  they make some nice ones.  even rra makes hard chrome bcgs now.  both will be cheaper than a retro colt one.

Does anybody have some pictures to help compare and identify the chrome carriers from the different mfgs?

This sounds like a better & cheaper answer for you, for your intended use, rather than buying an original chrome Colt BCG. Much cheaper. But if you are hellbent on buying an original, be prepared to get rid of 2 to 3 Franklins.

Rock River Arms is currently selling AR-15 spec full chrome bolt groups for $130 a piece.

I bought a pair of them and both look great.  Quite literally every piece down to each screw and pin is chromed, even the firing pin retaining pin.

I would have to go with the RRA for the money

That one is pretty high, for just the carrier, then again most of that guy's auctions are priced high.

The RRA sounds like the best deal going for the OP's intent IMO.

Thanks for the help guys, but I couldve sworn in the EE theres a member that always has retro parts: uppers and BCGs that always takes the pictures on top of an old USGI rifle rack, he had a colt serrated chrome bcg for like 150ish?

There was,but I questioned him on it and he finally admitted it was not an original Colt,he relisted it as non Colt and it sold much cheaper.
