colt ar's

I've never heard of the 6925.

The newer 6920s might have a different stock.

Over the last few years Colt has been changing the cosmetic features of the 6920.

The 6920's of years ago had the Colt large diameter hammer and trigger pins, and the original type CAR-15 Fiberlite collapsing stock, and a semi-auto type bolt carrier.
These were stamped as AR-15 Carbines and had standard type carbine barrels.

The 6920 of a few years ago went back to the original size pins, changed to the current M4 collapsing stock, changed to the M4 profile barrel, changed the stamp to "Colt M4", changed to the full-auto type bolt carrier, the large oval shaped M4 handguards, came with 2 20 round aluminum magazines and the carry handle/rear sight.

The 6920 of the last few years was the same only it had the Rodgers/Colt Super Stock collapsing stock, 2 Mag-Pul 30 round magazines, deleted the the carry handle/sight and changed to the Mag-Pul BUIS folding rear sight.

The 6920 of this year went back to the M4 collapsing stock, still has the Mag-Pul BUIS folding rear sight, has only one Mag-Pul 30 round magazine, no cleaning kit, and no sling.

This is from memory and I could have some of the older carbine features wrong.

I don't know of a 6925, they do have a 6520 and 6521 which is basically a 6920 with either a heavy barrel or A1 profile barrel. There is also a LE6900 which isn't actually made by Colt and most people just say stay away.

Change #1: they went to standard FCG pins several years ago
Change #2: they went to the M16 BCG shortly after, also started using an updated extractor spring
Change #3: they started rollmarking the 6920 as M4 CARBINE instead of LAW ENFORCEMENT CARBINE in last year or so and also dropped the restricted markings on the right side.
Change #4: The Rodger's Super Stock became available last year. Nice stock unless you want the traditional M4 stock. 6920 were available either way.
Change #5: the one many are sore about, is the "2013 config." They dropped the carry handle, the side sling swivel, M4 stock and 2-20rd mags in favor of a MBUIS, standard sling swivel, 1-30rd p-mag and Rodger's Super Stock.

Those are for base LE6920. There's also the Magpul version with Magpul MOE furniture in either brown or black. There's the SOCOM with a heavy under the handguards M4A1 profile barrel, originally they came with the Knight's RAS but switched to the Troy rail and kept Knight's covers (they PO'ed a lot of people with this single change), Matech BUIS, standard M4 stock, side sling swivel, 1 Colt 30rd mag and the rollmark changed to M4A1 CARBINE.

What is the difference between a 6925,older 6920

The former does not exist.

I bought a 6920 a few month's ago. It has the Roger's stock. It came with one PMAG and no cleaning kit or sling.

Correct. Magpul MBUIS also.

Now the 6920 is once again shipping with the standard M4 military stock, not the Rodgers/Colt stock.
Check the Colt web site.

I forgot about changing the M4 side sling swivel back to the standard sling swivel on the bottom of the front sight assembly.

The newer 6920 ships with a Magpul backup rear sight instead of the carry handle sight, and a 30 round PMAG instead of 2 aluminum 20 round magazines. Also no sling or cleaning kit.

This surely allows Colt to keep the same price point by lowering their cost while also giving people a sight that is going to be used/useful to more of the buyers. Many people would simply sell the carry handle sight, or stick it in a drawer somewhere, and buy a backup iron sight anyway.

Does the stock itself determine the amount of clicks and or adjustments or is it the tube? With mine I have 4 adjustment rogers SS.

That's the receiver extension, aka buffer tube
