2021年1月8日 · FWIW, I have a 'C7' upper in wonderful shape that AEyoung sold me, that has Colt proof marks, so it began life either as a 723, 733, or most likely, an M16A1E1. When I was in ROTC, I got to handle one of those and it made an impression because other than the upper receiver, it had all the new furniture.

2020年6月7日 · I know its a 'transitional' gun, but from what I have read, the XM177 is the 'Commando' version of basically the 723. If that is true, would the 723 and the Xm177 share the same upper receiver? Or did the 723 have the C7 receivers; or are they the same thing? This is what really confuses me.

2015年7月13日 · Finally finding time to post pictures of my newly arrived Colt Model 723 clone that J.T. at Retro Arms Works completed the work on earlier last week. Even though this model is considered an A2, it reminds me more of a Model 653 with just a few A2 parts on it.

2023年12月6日 · What is the correct color for a Colt 723/Gordon Carbine Clone, XM Grey or Black? I have 2 Colt 723 upper receivers, one in XM Grey and the other was black, that needed to be re-anodized. The lower is a Colt AR-15 A2 Gov't …

2010年9月9日 · The port doors on most all "723's" I've seen are the A2 style but finding an A1 type on an early 723 is also possible as Colt appears to have used what was "in the bin" for most of these carbines, I have notes on 2 723's which have A1 type doors, 1 is a thin profile barrel the other is an M4 contour/727 barrel!, if doing a very early 723 you ...

2019年12月26日 · It is identical to LV's, it has the M16A2 lower, C7 upper, and 14.5 M4 profile barrel, if that helps anyone as far as the period correct-ness. So it would be a late model 723. I actually did a write-up on the build here not too long ago, if anyone would like to see some pics. Any info is greatly appreciated. Thanks, ~Josh Colt 723 Write Up

2023年10月3日 · The 723, broadly speaking, had 3 major incarnations. The first, as described above, used A1 upper with a 1:7 pencil 14.5” barrel, the next was the same same except it had a C7 upper (A2 with Field Sights in Colt literature of the time), and the final used the heavier barrel with grenade ring (similar to but not the same as the later M-4 barrel).
