never hav shot this patickularweapon but have read many articles ataining to this gun's versitility and toughness.

Great rifle. Many have complained about it, but I have not seen the issues that they report. But it does require regular cleaning even if its not used. But that every weapon

I used the civilian version match target and Ive carried this gun for 10 years and it is an excellent weapon. Very accurate and reliable like and semi auto it must be kept clean but if your life depends on it I think keeping up on the cleaning is time well spent.

Great transition for all dog handlers. Shorter lighter and overall easier to handle with a dog on the other side.

I have carried the Colt 6920LE for several years and it has served me faithfully the entire time. I find that it works best with Lake City XM193 55gr FMJ or M855 62gr. FMJ. I use milspec mags exclusively, but have been pleasantly surprised by the new Magpul PMags - tested and proven more rugged than the HK high reliability at a cost of $17 ea. I bought 6.

I have the Colt's Law Enforcement Carbine model LE6920. Currently manufactured models are built by Colt Defense which produces M4s for the U.S. Military. The only major differences are a 16 inch barrel, and absence of the burst mode on the selector. Mounted on my 6920 is the Trijicon TA31-RCO M4 or ACOG model identical in every way to the model I use in the Marine Corps. I zeroed my personal one with military M855 ammunition which is the current production "green tip" ammo with a 62 grain projectile complete with tungsten steel core penetrator. That is the ammuniton those carbines and optics were designed for. I found at home and abroad that once zeroed with the 62 grain ammo 55 to 77 grain projectiles will hit where you aim atleast out to 300 meters. Colt equals quality, dependability and ruggedness. I will never trust another AR/M16 make as much as a Colt because I have seen the abuse they have endured from being hit by high explosives in combat to being bounced down a stairwell or thrown out a window in bootcamp. There's my two cents and no I don't work for Colt, I just know what proven weapon can do for you.

in combat this a highly effective and light weapon for urban ops

Awesome weapon for the USAF Security Forces.

I miss this rifle greatly. Unfortunately due to budget requirements I have the M-16 A1 hopefully we can start fielding these. It's very light and compact with no loss of effectiveness with the shorter barrel. Anyone looking to arm their officers with patrol rifles need to give this a serious look.

A nice bit of kit.

I like both the M4 amd M4A1 both are Dynamic and Versatile Weapons.

I carry one daily or a frankenstein version of an older A2. It works okay but needs a few upgrades. Well my issues ones do. I am issued a reflex 1 sight. Would prefer aimpoint and a t grip like on personal weapon. Unfortunately my so called supervisor in his wisdom had a block installed on all of them. So semi only and never allowed to go to any schools with our issues. Must take personals. A piston assembly would be better.

Colt still makes GREAT solid reliable firearms. I LOVE MINE and I even compete with it on occassions.

This is the best rifle EVER!!!!!

love this weapon, nuff said

never owned one but have shot one on several occasions. great patrol rifle

Awesome Weapon!

I instruct AF personnel on the use and maintenance of the M4 and other small arms. It's relatively easy to maintain, reliable, and accurate. People say they "jam-up". Well they can if you don't maintain it properly as with any other weapon. Your weapon is your life. Therefore you must maintain it accordingly.

love this weapon . i carried it for a year in Iraq never had a jam always fired true and straight . i miss not carring it .

I'm a big fan of the M4. I consider it and the AK74 to be my two favorite primary weapons. Obviously the M4 has the better manufacturing, grouping, etc. I think that every cop should have an M4 as their primary weapon, making their sidearm a backup.

I carry an M-4 as my military issue rifle, and I personally own one as well (both are Colt). As with anything else, one can always find ways to improve the weapon (i.e. gas piston, larger caliber, etc.). But overall, this is a reliable and durable piece of equipment. If you take care of her, she'll take care of you.

I'll take one. . . . .

Great weapon

I lovbe this rifle I carry one in my car

Awesome weapon

Had the opportunity to shoot this weapon twice, very light weight and accuarate, able to move swiftly while fireing, would advise anyone wishing to purchase,to just go for it.

Well this is undoubtedly one of the best things to ever grace gun lovers. I dont own a Colt but all the makers that manufacture this weapon make a superior product.

One of the best patrol rifles out there, all around great weapon. Versatile, light, and the compact version is great for close quarters. Definitely a favorite of mine.

I have the civilian version of the M4 I beleive it is the 6920. I love it, I wish my Dept would let me use it rather than the issued AR-15A3. One is just as accurate and reliable as the other, but the M4 has less weight due to the fact it doesn't have the heavy barrel.

I love mine and have never had a problem with it. Much fire power!!!!

Love the M4 in comparison to the M16A2. The size and weight is much better without losing firepower!

I just finished building mine. I love it, easy to shoot, take apart and very very accurate.

I reccomend shooting Hornday Tap (red box) for defense ammo in this and shooting reloads for competition or target practice.

I have to say that if I am going to carry a rifle in a war environment this is the one I would want to carry. The collapsible butt stock is very convenient when entering close quarters. It is also nice when long distances by expanding the butt stock and getting a nice steady aim. Very accurate.

Great Gun light, accurate, no restriction of movement.

Supurb peice of kit - my life has depended on it - and I stand by it - If only the US Army would get rid of the crappy mags and go with PMags from Magpul

Great weapon. Wish the round was a little heavier, but overall, I do love this rifle.

small lightweight feels like im carrying a toy rifle wish it was a 7.62mm, 5.56 isn't strong enough for stopping power for me otherwise great weapon for clearing houses with

Carried this weapon for many years for most ops while I was in the Army and it never let me down... if you take care of this weapon it WILL take care of you. I also like the fact of how easy it is to sight in and clean. just don't set down your pin in the grass....lol

While not as rough and tuff as an automat kalashnikov this weapon has never let me down in the many years i have wielded it. amazingly customizable with unlimited options from the butt stock to the flash suppressor this gun will probably not be phased out anywhere in the near or even distant future.

Big fan of this weapons system it is finally on the firing platform it needs to be on. I have carried this weapon for years and find it to be reliable and durable.

everytime i open the trunk it comes out

The collapsible stock and shorter barrel make this rifle much easier to handle in close spaces ie. vehicles, buildings, etc. The trade off is velocity and down range energy but for 300 and closer it's a good piece of kit.

The forearm rail system and flattop upper receiver is excellent for mounting optics, laser aiming devices, lights, cameras and whatever else you can think to mount. Just don't add too much stuff because then it'll become unwieldy and cumbersome.

Two things I suggest to upgrade the M4: 1) Go to 6.5 Grendel--better ballistics, down range energy and velocity. 2) Use a gas-tappet recoil system instead of direct gas impingement--better reliability and cleaner chamber area.

Fortunately, you can purchase both as after market accessories. A little pricey but you'll have a damn fine weapon.

I use this rifle at my unit except it has a shorter barrel and is called a M18. Very reliable and accurate. Just plain fun to shoot. The round itself on the other hand not so good.

I currently carry the Colt M4 Commando as my SWAT carbine. I have it equipped with a reflex trijicon sight, custom grip, and surefire light. I have not had any problems at all with it, and have found it to be reliable and accurate. Despite the "shorty" barrel, I find the recoil and blast highly manageable. I am extremely comfortable with this weapons platform. That said, I am not a huge fan of the 5.56. I would prefer the new 6.8, if given the choice.

Good weapon. Used at the end of my service in the Army.

I was never used to shooting a m16A2 but its not to bad and easy to clean

it is better than the m16 to carry, not the best weapon but very customizable

Great weapon! I prefer my Smith M&P 15, but I have no complaint about this weapon. I have fired hundreds of rounds through this weapon, and have yet to have a jam. I have also very successfully hit human sized targets at 300 yards consistently multiple times and my 25 meter zero groups would fit inside a nickel.

Quality makes COLT!!!!

don't leave home without it

A good solid rifle, take proper care of it and it will do you right.

Love this weapon. Never failed no matter what it goes threw.

This is the fourth AR I have owned. Will never buy anything except Colt again. Reliable, well built and accurate.

This is light easy to use and a great weapon.

A long time friend from the military till now! Add and AACOG and perfection!

Very good weapon, easy to maintain and service in the field.

i have used this weapon in airsoft and combat training and find it very tactical and manueverable. The crane stock helps very much so in diff combat positions. I believe that this is a very good replacement for the m-16 in urban combat.

A good weapon with some issues such as being lube thirsty but overall it's not to bad, just keep in mind to clean it weekly if not more or if you're in the sand box daily. Personally wish it had a larger round along with a better magazine system, which is usually the issue when mine misfeeds or jams.

Despite the typical jams, proper care and SPORTS always works. Close Quarters Combat ready.

Familiar ergos, Mild-recoil, interchangibility, adaptibility make the M4 type carbine, including the Colt 6920 an excellent partol rifle to keep in the trunk. Many Depts. now have these and they are very polular for good reasons, they are dependable and accurate. Drop in a rail system and it can adapt to almost any mission.
