Is Colt LE 6940 considered OLL?

[missiontrails]

My guess is NO.

Read the flowchart above, then decide how much excitement you want in your life...

For me, it's not worth it just to say you have a Colt lower.

[Sgt Raven]

My guess is NO.

It's not a 6920, so yes. But how much drama do you want and how close to the edge of the cliff will you walk?

[cmace22]

Too close for me to own......

[rorschach]

It is not an AR15, LE6920, Sporter, or Match Target. That being said the rollmarks are identical to the 6920.

Geeze, I am considering buying one of everything that SGC is selling right now. They have 6940 rifles for $1395! Guess I can't have one.

It's offlist. I'd get one BB equipped if I had the money right now.

[O8SERVER]

It's not listed specifically, so it's OLL

I feel the same way, yes it's legal, but I wouldn't want to own one. BUT, it's odd to me that I do, considering the RRA situation is exactly the same and I wouldn't worry about that one.

I'm tempted, though, considering how nice the 6940 is.

I think it's the idea that it says "Colt" that has us all thrown.

I'd love one. So where is it sellin for $1395?

[Mississippi]

I want a colt. I just don't want to take any chances.

Scottsdale Gun Club, a place where you should make a pilgrimage to at least once before you die.

Here's the 6940; http://sgcusa.com/Warehouse-Sale/c23...duct_info.html

One of those 6940 uppers cut down for a pistol lower would be snazzy! It would suck if they released the pdw version after though..

There may be four lower receivers that meet todays definition of California legal "off-list".

1. Colt Carbine Model # unk.
2. Colt CAR-A3 HBAR ELITE Model 6724
3. Colt M4 Law Enforcement carbine. Model 6921
4. Colt Law Enforcement Carbine. Model 6940

There are different features, both marking and functional parts between the Colt off-list receivers. There are probably variations within these.

The Colt carbine is rollmarked "COLT(logo) COLT CARBINE tm CAL. .223 SER. CC xxx" The Carbine model may be a large pivot pin hole .315 lower.
It has .155 hammer and trigger pin holes.
They come with a standard AR-15 trigger group.
Some may be marked "EXPORT USE ONLY" on the right side of the magazine well.
Some may have visibly pinned auto-sear block receivers.
unknown what type of fence.

Here's a large hole visible sear block pin on both sides of the receiver.
This is a HBAR ELITE.

Here's a photo of a sear block inside the receiver viewed from the top. This type of sear block will not allow you to use
M-16 bolt carriers. It uses the Colt AR-15 half circle bolt carriers.



Here's an example of a webbed in auto-sear block. Seen only when the receivers are taken down.
