That's the weird thing. To my knowledge, they don't.
Brownells is the only distributor of the 6960 upper, and it only comes with the rail, but without BCG or charging handle. This one had no evidence of a rail being mounted, but has a bolt group and charging handle. It's kind of a unicorn.

This trigger will make you *very* happy. Don’t use the heavy trigger spring, the other is heavy enough.
You’ve got a lot of rail recommendations already. Haley’s sling is very nice and converts from 1- to 2-point.
This will be a hell of a tool and will likely outlive you in effectiveness. Congrats
Last time I looked for a 6720 nobody had any. I had planned to chop off the front sight and use an ALG rail
Three months later...
Finally got the LaRue trigger on the way, and a very-good condition VTAC rail with extra accessories came up for a quite good price this last week. Still looking for suitable iron sights, since I am originally a luddite black powder cartridge type guy with a handlebar mustache. As @Tamara would say, I need my Woobie.
(And I am going to go compare mini & full size Red Dots, Reflex sights, and maybe ACOG type optics. Oy! )
So here's the state of the not-quite-KISS, not-quite-6720:
In honor of the inattentive Colt Employee who assembled the upper, and his likely former employer, I am naming the carbine "Clem Century".

My Colt 6720 is my absolute favorite AR. To keep mine trim I added a Ion Lite rail from Lone Star Armory. With Aimpoints being incredibly durable, backup iron sights are so low priority that I just use the Magpul MBUS. I added an ambi-selector, LSA's bolt release, a B5 Bravo stock, and Magpul K2 grip. I hope someday BCM makes their full size Gunfighter fore grip in MLOK.
