    1991 Colt made M4?

    Gentlemen, relax. It was established way back in post #5 that this is not actually an M4, but rather that the OP and the seller are generically using the moniker M4 to refer to a civilian, semi-auto, collapsible stock AR carbine which have been around long before 1991.

    1991 Colt made M4?

    Short barreled, collapsible stock M-16 variants have been around since the 1960's and have known by multiple model designations: CAR-15, XM177 and Commando among others. The forerunner to today's M4 was the 1970's M-16A1 Carbine. It featured a 14.5" barrel and standard birdcage flash suppressor...

    1991 Colt made M4?

    I had a Colt AR-15 Carbine back in the mid-80's. I am not sure how long before that they were produced.

    1991 Colt made M4?

    I sincerely doubt it is a Colt M4 as the M4 is a selective fire weapon (semi & 3-round burst) and being manufactured post 1986 is illegal for a civilian to own. What it more likely is one of the M4 "clones" (AR-15 Carbine, SP6920, etc.), that is the semi-auto version with a 16" barrel.

    Preemptive Legal Defense questions

    The point is that no matter how diligent one is in trying to avoid places/situations that might place your life in jeopardy, sometimes there is no avoiding it. You do not have to be looking for trouble, but it can always find you. Muggings, rapes, robberies, etc. can, and do occur even in good...

    What was the last extinct caliber?

    Sorry for any misunderstanding; I was not inferring that the 10mm is dead, but rather that the .30 Remington was the parent case for the 6.8 SPC (as referenced in the quoted post from you) AND it was also the parent case for 10mm Auto.

    What was the last extinct caliber?

    And the 10mm Auto, which of course spawned the .40 S&W, that in-turn begat the .357 Sig, so although the .30 Remington might be dead, it lives on through its progeny.

    Scope for my AR

    My other half says I have enough guns...

    No 1911, no AR, no defensive shotgun; Yes you "need" more, but the question you have to ask yourself is which is more important to you: your gun collection or your marriage?

    Disadvantages to porting.

    I had a 3" S&W 629 .44 Mag with round butt finger-groove grips (Lew Horton special edition) that I had Magnaported. After firing a cylinder-full of hot handloads at an indoor range, I noticed some whites flakes on the shooting bench and my shirt; knowing I did not have a bad case of dandruff, I...

    Similar case heads to.40 S&W

    What about the parent case for the 10mm Auto, the .30 Remington? Or perhaps the 6.8mm Remington SPC, whose parent case is also the .30 Remington.
