This is the real deal, complete with all Colt parts and an ambi safety selector. Four position Colt buffer extension tube and a Colt / P&S Products / Provident American "waffle" stock.*
Be advised: This is a true Colt battle rifle lower, produced like DOD contract rifles are produced. You may see blemishes. Colt is known for rough handling on the assembly line: oil, no oil, handling marks, minor scratches, black anodizing and gray anodizing. To be fair, Colt finish quality has improved since these lowers were first produced in 2018, but just saying... Also, the rifle was fired a number of times for testing. The lowers cannot be returned. Make sure you understand what a military rifle is and is not before you purchase. This is a complete factory assembled 2023 vintage lower receiver, taken from a new Colt rifle.
These were made in 2018, 2019 and again, a few in 2021 - 2023. This batch is the 2021 style, which will be a laser cut and not rollmarked Colt factory lower, like the earlier versions.
Limited supply available.
* Note: The M4 waffle stock has always been made by Provident American Technologies and P&S Products, which are the same company, specifically for Colt. The actual CAGE code numbers have varied over time, sometimes with P&S, sometimes with PAT and sometimes with P&S and Colt together. There seems to be no pattern to which is sent.
Note: This is a lower, taken off limited release full SOCOM rifles, which are limited production. Do not confuse this with an HBPW or other newer or older releases. Colt lowers from rifles build in 2018, 2019 and 2021, 2022 and 2023.

THIS IS A SERIALIZED FIREARM. It must ship to a Federal Firearms License holder. No civilian exceptions.
Buying and shipping through Charlie’s is easy, but there is some information you need to know. Only a federally licensed firearms dealer may receive a firearm or federally regulated serialized item (like a receiver or suppressor). We cannot ship these items directly to you. Please follow these steps to process your transaction:
1) Check your state laws to make sure the federally regulated item you want to purchase is legal in your state. Your FFL dealer should be able to give you all of the necessary information regarding your state specific laws. But, if we ship to your FFL, and there is a legal issue, we cannot accept a return. So please make sure that you know and follow your local and state laws.
2) A quick google search will show you what Federal Firearms Licensed (FFL) dealers are in your area. When you are ready to purchase, contact the FFL dealer you would like to use and get their shipping address. During the check-out, put YOUR address in the “billing” section and the FFL DEALER’S address in the “shipping” section. If you don’t know your FFLs address, that’s okay. You can send the information later.
3) After check out, make sure to contact your FFL dealer to ensure they will receive your shipment for you (most do this for a small fee, but you should always double check).
4) Have your dealer send us a copy of their FFL to FFL@CharliesCustomClones.com. Charlie’s does not reach to your FFL (MAKE THEM EARN THEIR FEE!!!)
5) Be patient! In order to ensure we remain compliant with all federal laws, our compliance department is kept separate from our sales and operations team. Please allow a few days for our compliance officer to verify all of your dealer’s documents and ensure all federal laws are being observed. You should hear from our compliance department within 3-4 business days. If not, feel free to reach out for a status update.
That’s it! We try to make this process as simple as possible for our customers, but if you are unfamiliar the process or have any other questions, please visit our How to Buy a Firearm page for more details.
