2 stores have le6920s (restricted marked) for $1000 Weaponspro in indiana https://www.gunbroker.com/Item/945607423 Precisionarmsindiana https://www.gunbroker.com/Item/945629764 I provided the gunbroker links but both stores take payment over the phone directly so you can avoid tax and gunbroker NO AFFILIATION |
Was able to pick up my M4LE today. The lower is in great shape with only a few light scratches and thankfully no color fill in the selector markings. The upper came with some rail covers and the T markings are color filled white. Does anyone know if that’s factory color filled? The worst scratches are on the upper receiver where the bolt release paddle would get smacked. The pin and weld was nicely done.

I received my M4LE from Kings. Not as nice of shape as the above poster, but still decent with very tight upper / lower lock up. Does anyone have any recommendations as to how to get those Troy Rails off along with the rail covers? The rail covers are slid so far down that they are blocking the delta ring. I see screws on the sides of the rail, do these need to come out before attempting to take the rail off? Thanks. Here are some pics. The lower looks nice except for a large wear mark right by the roll mark, which is the one area I want the least amount of wear! Does anyone know whose forge mark that is is on the upper?

Once the magpul rail covers come off, how does one remove the YHM rail? Originally Posted By DTOWN_MJ: Lower b Those big white wear marks by the roll mark don't bother you?  Did the M4 barrel profile change over time? Below are two factory 14.5" colt m4 barrels, the older early 00's LEO trade in is on the right. Notice the cutout for the grenade launcher is longer on that barrel.

| Agency Trade in Colt Defense M4 Carbine complete lowers. M4 Carbine marked, LE serial numbers |
Can't never could 'til try came along.

Looks like the LEa6920R Trooper. $900 is a ridiculous price. You can get them new for about $1100. |

Not sure When Colt changed over to them on the commercial side. I personally much prefer the CAR (N1) stock |

oh man... I don't need another 6920, but at that price its hard for me to say no. I got one of the police trade-in Colt Canada / Diemaco 6920s and have been shooting it lately. While all my Colt barrels have really been fantastic, the police trade in Colt Canada rifle has been an absolute laser. It showed up dirty, but has turned out to be a wonderful example of the 6920 rifle. That has the markings and configuration I like... will sleep on it and see.. |

Do the Safe/Semi lowers have the un-milled sear web area or is it open like a SP1 lower? I found a ban era police trade-in AR6601 where the lower was milled like a SP1 without sear block. The new Colt lowers with the selector stops are a good start now mill them like a SP1.

So I ordered one of the Summit Gunbroker Colt 6920 police trade in rifles. I really got it for no other reason than I thought it was a good deal, and I was really pleased with the Colt Canada / Diemaco 6920 police trade in I got from Gunprime a while back. So, with Summit Gunbroker they have them listed for $849 - however, they also list these same trade-in rifles on a Gunbroker account. They must have gotten loads of these things from (Phoenix?) PD. On Gunbroker, I was able to lock in a winning bid that was lower than the Summit list price from their own website - be aware though, Gunbroker has a lot of fees! Almost $60 in taxes and fees on top of my bid, then shipping. I came out a tad cheaper by bidding instead of buying direct, but it was just a little over $50 I saved. So not bad, but I saw some of their listings bid up higher than their website. So be mindful of that, I think it's possible to pay more if you aren't careful. Anyhow, the rifle looks great. Has minor handling marks and scrapes on the receiver, many of which wiped away with CLP. I knew the condition of the specific rifle I got, due to bidding on a listing instead of 'ordering from the pile' so to speak from Summit's website. I doubt it really matters though - there are police trade ins, and you should expect handling marks. The barrel looks great, handguards, stock and carry-handle sight are all in VG condition. I did swap out the stock with another old Colt vinyl acetate aluminum one I had laying around, and will put some skinny handguards on it once I dig them out. So one thing I've noticed with my now 2 police trade in carbines - the triggers are really nice. I had an extra Geissele SSA-E I was planning on putting on it, but honestly this has a very crisp and clean mil spec trigger. Has anyone else noticed this? I am wondering if they are 'worn in', maybe smoothed out with use. I have had some pretty rough Colt and LMT milspec triggers from new rifles that I usually swap for a Geissele, but these two trade-in 6920s have very clean mil spec triggers. I am just going to leave them be I think. Curious if this might be common. I am not saying its as clean and crisp as the Geissele.... but in truth its kinda close (granted these are also single stage). |
