Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By securenet: Does this item look the same as the photo on AU's site? As we all know sometimes AU's photos are not always an accurate representation of what the item actually looks like. The short answer is yes, what is in the box looks like the base rifle in the image. With that said, I haven't had time to open the box six quickly validating the serial number at my FFL during lunch on Friday. I planned on having some photos of mine posted by now but the weekend hasn't gone as planned and Mothers Day adds an additional level of difficulty to getting time in the gun room. AU's photos show a rail section attached to the front of the rail in addition to some MagPul rail covers installed on the 9 o'clock rail position. I have not opened the accessory pack to validate contents. With that said, the 16" version and the upcoming 13" version is probably unlikely to be available again anytime soon. If you are remotely interested, or a collector, I recommend getting one, or both. The 16" version was my pick as I can only afford one. |

In three posts below will be 13 photos that I took real quick tonight of my Colt CM762-16S that I picked up at my FFL on May 10th, 2024.
A few quick comments...I was glad to see the accessories included. I was disappointed to see that there are no selector stops. The lower receiver is roll marked.  Attached File Attached File Attached File Attached File Attached FileImages continued in next post. |

Selector stops, while overall having no impact on the function of the firearm, looks much better than having two flat machined spots. And, it serves absolutely no purpose to machine them off.

I worked late this evening but took a few minutes to finally look under the handguard of my recently purchased CM762-16S. The barrel profile behind the gas block is heavier than forward of the gas block.

Assuming the gas tube is the same length as the 901, it's Armalite AR10 carbine length.

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By Bret: I received my tracking number about five days ago. Not having rifles might explain why it's still at the label created stage. I agree that selling a product that you don't have is a bad business practice, not to mention unethical. That said, I've got to believe that they do expect them to arrive any day. Otherwise, customers will get very upset and start the credit card chargebacks. FYI, they've sold 47 out of the 100 they've offered to this point. ordered and paid for my 13" sbr on the 23rd just got an email from them: "Good afternoon, It looks like the order is now in process. Until it gets approved, we just wait. Once we receive the approval from ATF to ship it to your FFL then you would receive the tracking number via email. Hope this helps. Have a nice day. Note: Orders that require FFL/SOT/LE documentations need to be received within 5 days of order placement. *Please allow up to 72 hours for email responses." |

For those who don’t know NFA items have to have a Form 3 approval before they can ship to the receiving dealer. They typically don’t take very long but I would expect a small delay in shipping on them.

Me too. I could mean that the Form 3's were approved or it could just mean that they're trying to be efficient by having everything ready when the approved is received. We'll see...

I got mine as well. I paid for next day air so I should know in the next couple of hours if it’s really shipped or not.
EDIT to add it is on its way. I’ll try and post some pics once I’m able to go and complete the Form 4. |
