I know these are out of the M16 Parts kits they're selling, so they're probably grey, but I wanted confirmation from someone who has one or two before I order a couple up.

I received one just today, in fact, and it is gray.

Turnerboy, I've seen both from Apex. Ask for grey in comments if ordering on-line..

What condition are these parts kits from Apex in?

Supposedly excellent. I've been buying individual parts from them, and they looked as if they've never been used.

If I wanted M16A1 Triangular CH in black are those somthing they would have (For Black 603 build ) >??

no.
They have whatever they happen to at the moment and aren't sold out of:
https://www.apexgunparts.com/index.php/cPath/49

Currently, all of their parts are coming from 603 parts kits.  A triangle charging handle wouldn't be correct anyway, let alone in black.

Mine was black, but it seems I failed to ask for gray, so got whatever was there.

I got several from Apex, they were the later Colt grey. (dark charcoal and matched my Colt A2 perfectly)

The charging handles are not the lighter XM type grey, but the darker, grey of the late '70s A1s.  They match up with those receivers perfectly.

Is color the only reason to buy ? (I was thinking they were the Triangular style ??)

Yes color is the only reason.Original Colt triangle charging handles go for more than that.

Got mine today, and agree near perfect match for my pre-ban 6520 lower and the 723 upper I've got.
