I have a detatchable carry handle that I need to identify.

It has a little "keyhole" icon on the right side adjacent to the sight itself.  

Besides Armalite who quite obviously marks their sights with their name,  who else makes carry handles and what are the different casting icons associated with each maker?

TIA

The only thing the icons tell you is who forged the handle. Manufacturers buy parts from different forges so the final product could come from any number of makers.

The "keyhole" is Cerro Forge I think, there is also Cardinal and a few others.

Does Colt have their own identification on these handles?
