…you do to it?
Now that a few more parts/accessories have hit the market; if you had a brand new 6920, what would you do to it (Besides shoot the piss out of it)?
I’d add an optic (like an Aimpoint M4) and a FF rail (like a DD Lite Rail or Omega) and buy a ton of Magpul PMAGs.
I’d put a light and a sling on it.
I would sell it to a Koolaid drinker, take the money and buy a gas piston system.
This is actually my next purchase, should I not get the Noveske N4 Basic… as of now this is what I would like to put on the rifle, obviously the specs change weekly but at the moment this is what I got:
-Trijicon USMC 4x32 ACOG with LaRue Tactical LT-100 QD Mount
-KAC M4 RAS or Free-Float RAS with 3 Panels
-KAC 200m - 600m Flip-Up Rear Sight
-Surefire X300 setup like on my 6933 or a Surefire M910A VFG w/ LaRue Tactical QD LT170
-Vickers Combat Sling
I would get a CTR stock, a DD Omega rail, a Vickers sling, and about 20 Pmags.
After getting your preferred sling, a light would be next on my list, in conjunction with some kind of rail (KAC RAS or maybe a DD Omega).
And, related to the original question…
Has anyone gotten the SAW “reliability package” for their 6920?
Your thoughts?
TIA

Aimpoint
Troy BUIS
Vicker’s sling
BCM extractor spring
Surefire (which might lead to a rail system)
SAW knows Colt’s as well as anyone inside the factory, but I myself would rather put a couple thousand rounds through the gun before I felt the need to have anyone address reliability concerns.
In the spirit of KISS, a VCAS Blue Force Gear (thanks Ash) sling and eventually a dozen factory mags…
LOL 
Big +1, or send it off to PWS to have their piston conversion work done to it like GotM4 did.
I do have a new Colt 6920. This is what I did first:
- EOTech 533
- Eurogrip
- ACC Stock Saddle
- 10 D&H 30 rd Mags
- 3 Pmags
- 17 more PMAGs on the way (update)
I lost my job recenntly so other stuff will have to wait. This is what I have so far.
Before:
So far:

Ok, I’m on the same page as most everyone.

Aimpoint M4 w/Larue mount
Aimpoint 3X w/Larue Flip mount
BCM extractor spring upgrade
Super Duty Chrome Silicon Buffer Spring (Tac. Springs)

My Backup 6920 is only going to have a La Rue BUIS, MIAD, and P-Mags.
Well, I’d shoot the pi…
Oh, you said besides that.
Nevermind.
Most of the brands that you listed are the same that I use on my two carbines, a Colt 6721 and a LMT Defender except for the rails.
I’m using LaRue rails on my Colt and KAC M4 RAS rails on my LMT.
Congrats, enjoy putting them together when you get it and let us know how it shoots.
I don’t do too much to my 6920 Carbines. The KAC M4 RAS is a must for me, even if I don’t plan to use it, I like the option. So, both my 6920’s are equipped as such.
One still wears the detachable carry handle and all original stock set/parts. The other is the same, only with an Matech BUIS and an Aimpoint.
Personally, I do not like to over do it with these Carbines, but I figured by setting them up as I did allows me the option to change or add equipment as the situation dictates, yet still maintain a level of simplicity and low weight.
The 6920 is basically perfection out of the box, hence my hesitation to mess with it too much.
Very little:
- Aimpoint or Eotech
- Blue Force Gear / Vickers Tactical adjustable two point sling
- Small piece of bolt-on rail for your OEM hand guards/ Vltor light mount / Surefire 6P light
- Cleaning kit & lubrication supplies
- Quality magazines (USGI, P-Mags, or HK)
- Take a class carbine/pistol class from a reputable instructor.
I put a TA-33-8 on mine.
And then shoot, clean, lube.
Lather, rinse, repeat.
In this order:
[ol]
[li]Vickers BFG Sling with sewn in swivels from G&R Tactical
[/li][li]Weapon mounted light; there are lots of good ones.
[/li][li]Aimpoint in Larue mount if you want a red-dot, ACOG or SD if you want a scope, also in a Larue mount
[/li][li]10-15 good mags
[/li]
[/ol]
At this moment in time, I would leave it alone and buy another one. You will probably be able to buy all the aftermarket goodies for some time to come down the road. How much longer will you possibly be able to buy a 6920? Either another rifle or another rifles value worth of ammo. Learn to shoot it well, then buy aftermarket goodies.
If there is even a hint of talk of a ban, how long do you think it will take for all the 6920’s on the market right now to get bought up and gone? Not very long. Be smart.
