New owner question

[Icer]

How do you decode the version of M4 that you have? There are several abbreviations on the end of the box, but I have not been able to decypher them.

 

M4 LR PG STD LE COLL

APSE REC

[HDRDKG]

I can help on a few of them.

 

PG=Pistol Grip

STD=Standard

LE=Limited Edition

Coll=Collectable

[Icer]

I can see the first two, but I was leaning towards law enforcement fr LE, and I can't see a reason for collectable, as it is not one of the limited editaion models.

[M1014]

I'm thinking you may be off there, HDRDKG.

 

My bet is:

PG = Pistol Grip

STD = Standard

LE = Law Enforcement

Coll = Collapsable stock

REC = I don't know.

 

I'm thinking LE because, well, my receiver is marked LE, and the only Limited Editions I can think of are the flag-branded M1014's.

 

COLL = collapsable stock makes sense, since the other stock types are listed...and it looks like it may just be wrapped around on the end of the box (notice that COLL is followed on the next line by APSE).

 

At any rate, Icer, I'd just go off of the model number. 11707's seem to be the most desirable, since they've got a recoil tube with notches milled in already, which will allow the full operation of a collapsable stock.
