For some reason this popped into my head after seeing the receiver value thread below.
I don't remember if there was an official outcome about them being real or fake. Or did it just fade away. |

I was thinking the ones that flaked were deemed fake and the ones that looked the same but didn't flake were deemed real. Not sure who/how that was exactly confirmed.
@TGWLDR or @oxford411 are most likely better resources and have a better memory than me... |

I bought one of those uppers from a member here and posted a ton of pictures in that thread you are referring to of the raised C flaking off when running a fingernail over it, even posted a picture of the C by itself next to my fingernail. The EE seller refunded and I returned the upper without issues. Photos of that were held ransom by photobucket and I'm not going to give them money.

That thread has more questionable speculation than Biden's campaign.
Never any official confirmation from Colt's. https://www.ar15.com/forums/Industry/PSA-counterfeit-Colt-upper-receivers-rasied-C-being-circulated/29-290545/ |

It was certainly an odd one regarding those uppers. I don’t have any other real info on them other than I won’t buy any upper that looks “questionable” |
