It's amazing how a small project can become a major overhaul.  I was contemplating what to do with this old 6920.  The barrel was shot out, and no longer passing hyeadspace checks. I wasn't too impressed with the upper, so I decided to replace the entire upper assembly with a new Noveske stripped upper and Raptor CH from Rainier, CHF barrel from FN, and BCG from AIM, and CASV that was on clearance from DSG.  I reused the gas tube.






The lower wasn't in as bad shape as the upper.



I ended up replacing most of the lower parts with a new LPK from CMMG, and put in a new Geissele SD3G trigger, Battle Arms selector, Odin Mag Release, and TBB PDQ Ambi Bolt Catch, and replaced the stupid 4 position receiver extension with a Spikes 6 position, along with new spring and buffer.  I reused the grip screw.  



I hated this stupid warning label that Colt felt was necessary to remind us lowly peasants that we shouldn't be using their ARs, so I replaced it with a Noveske lower.  I went ahead an threw away any old part I decided I wasn't going to reuse.



While ordering the parts, i realized it would be a couple weeks for everything to come in, so I went ahead an ordered a 11.5" barrel, and registered the lower as an SBR.

I took my rebuilt Colt 6920 out to the range this weekend, and threw 200 flawless rounds down 100 and 200 yards respectably.  I'm happy with the overall performance.  Colt makes a fine rifle.

Technically, isn't that now a Noveske rifle with a Colt upper?

How long / how many rounds did it take to shoot out your original colt barrel?

No, it's went out the recycling with some other old lowers I threw out last week.  Aluminum gets 36 cents a pound right now.

Exactly, why would I rebuild it if I didn't like it?  I'd throw it in the trash if I was a Colt hater.

I have no idea what model number is is, I'm assuming 6920.  I'm not a Colt fanboy, so they all look the same to me except the SP1.
