I've noticed here recently that the "C" markings on the M4 upper receivers are punch stamped "C" not the raised "C" that I have seen in the past. In fact, on a recent LE6920 rifle I was looking at, it appeared that some grinding of an existing marking had taken place and a "C" was punched in along side a raised "keyhole" I was appalled at the rough finish where that happened. I'm no Colt expert, but can I only assume that Colt's upper receiver manufacture has been having some issues w/ production? Anybody have any clue to what's going on here ? |
If you have any pictures please post them. |

There are pics of receivers not entire rifles in this thread of the same question I asked in the AR15 section. These actually look pretty well finished as far as I can tell from the pics. However, the "C" is stamped not raised. Colt M4 receiver Pics ??? Let me know if this is the standard in production by Colt for now. and why? |
