    That is actually my favorite SBR lol.

    I'm not sure what exactly Colt did, but that entire side of the mag well has those marks. My best guess is there was in imperfection in the forging that they were trying to clean up to keep that batch of lowers useable. I've seen photos of other Colt 6933s with the same machining marks, always on the left mag well. They don't bother me in the least, but they do leave me wondering WTF exactly Colt was thinking.

    LOL, yeah she did. Every now and then she will have one with me. As long as her "fav's" are in the "sale" too, it's okay.

    The Trim rail and Noveske upper mate up like a dream. The 18.5" spiral fluted beauty looks even better in person. I have been researching this high end hard use SPR/DMR rifle for over a year now and all the parts are coming together. Just waiting on some Cerakote samples which should be here in a few weeks or so. Then it will be off for a paint job.
