| I just received my NIB Colt LE carbine, and noticed the elevation dial does not have the 3/8, 6/8/ or "Z" engraved on the dial, just a flat space where it should be. Why would this be? The instruction book say's it's engraved with one of them. Thanks for any help. |

only time i know of this is on the 7.62x39 uppers
the dial on them is not marked have no idea how it happened to you when you say NIB are you 100 percent sure no one opened it before you? few FFLs have guns they have not opened at least to double check the serial number, I know I have never met one that just trusted the name on the box, and i have met many more that love to rob colt parts of colt guns then put them up for sell without telling anyone, then selling genuine colt parts for a war price to some unsuspecting victim not saying its what happened, just be aware it does happen a lot |
Terry, if for some reason Colt drops the ball (they won't, but just in case they do) I would be happy to swap with you. I have several unused Colt carry handles on-hand. The majority of my flattop Colts have optics installed, so the handles end up collecting dust in an old shoebox
