Was that end plate sling QD installed at the factory or by dept armorer?  If there is still presence of Colt factory staking it must have been done at the factory.

Got a trade-in 6921 upper in today from Clyde Armory.  It's in better shape than the website pics reflect.  Came with BCG & CH (which I failed to get pics of when I had it apart for cleaning), shiny handguards, and side sling adapter (which was in the LH config before I swapped it to RH).  I added the carry handle.












(Ignore the Matech - I was considering using that and opted for the carry handle instead)

Hi @WildBoar Do you happen to have a specific contact email that you could share with me?  I have reached out for photos 3 times in two different ways but I get no response.

I ordered one on Sunday and it just shipped; not sure if it’ll be in by the end of the week, but I’ll let everyone know what it’s like when I get it in..

I had one of these not long after the ban ended; traded it into an AUG, but...I've been basically trying to replace it ever since. It was a "good trade" but not a good trade if that makes any sense. I've not seen these specific ones come up all that often; usually they're 1/9" HBARs, so...while today there's enough "retro" things out there to be able to pick up a 16" .625 with a front sight on it, still...

And I might even have an extra set of normal handguards laying around for it somewhere

As I considered them on the soon to be scarce list of desirable Colts, I started buying up these 6520 police trades every time I saw one come up for sale.  I am not allowed to buy anymore but the urge is still real, lol.  If you don't own one and like older Colt AR's then I highly recommend you pick one up when you see them come up as Police trades.  This and the 6720 are one of the best Colt AR's and you really dont see these very often.  Like you said they usually are HBAR barrels.

Do the uppers on the 6520's have feed ramps?
Today 5:43:57 AM EDT
[#27]
I don’t remember mine having M4 ramps way back when, but I’ll find out in a day or two when mine comes in…
