[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Colt Bolt, Question about markings

Posted: 6/26/2006 1:41:24 PM EDT

Anyone ever come across a Colt bolt just with a "C" etched on it? Not the carrier (which I see all the time), but on the Bolt itself?

Around 2000 they marked some that way for civilian use, same testing as all other bolts just a different marking

Thanks, YardDog, thought maybe it was a non-tested Colt Bolt (though thought 100% were tested) and not marked MPC, or perhaps this stood for CMT or something. Your pic is exactly what the bolt marking I was asking about.

Thanks, Joe

Came with the "C" (only) stenciling
