So I have been hearing that Colt will be releasing a 6941 that is essentially the same as the 6940 but has a fixed FSB. Does anyone know if this is worth waiting for or is it just speculation at this point? I'm holding off on buying a 6940 cause I really do like the standard FSB, but I only want to wait if the 6941 is actually going to become reality.
Anyone have any further info on these? Thanks! -Mike |

If Colt produces a 6941 with 11.5" barrel then it will likely be my first factory SBR. I am sick of filing Form 1's anyway 
Cheers Same here... cant wait! Hell, Im still saving for a plain old 6940 (or at least waiting till I can get one for less than 2g's) |

some new info, the 6940 brrels extension is a new improved design, so swapping barrels with your own will be difficult So it's a proprietary barrel extension? That will kinda stink until Colt starts getting 6940 barrel assemblies out on the market. Thanks for the info Shawn! |
| Is it possible to change the fsb without removing the barrel? Seems like you should be able to tap out the pins and slide the factory one off, and pick up a 25.00 or whatever they cost fixed gasblock sight and slide it on and pin it? Just wondering if anyones tried it yet. |

Just wondering if anyones tried it yet. I'm sure you are right. Problem is, I wouldn't feel good about ANYONE doing it except Colt, John Noveske, ADCO, or maybe specialized armament or something. Hell, 99% of what makes a colt a colt is the assembly, IMO. Plus, I'd hate to do this and then find out in two months that I could have just waited and had a factory original Colt. Damnit. What a dillemma. |
