Does anyone know if Colts 901 BCG is the same as the Colt CM BCG?

I bought a Colt CM when they dropped down to $1,400 and love it. Very accurate, low gas with a can....Was thinking what if my BCG takes a crap down the road. They dont make the CM anymore.
Also, if you have a 901, can you post a pic of your BCG?

I also bought a colt cm762 when it was around $1350 or so.

I called colt a few weeks ago and a customer service rep told me all of the parts are the same except the rail. I specifically asked about the bolt and was told they are the same. I then ordered a spare bcg from armsunilimited. I put it in my colt cm762 and it fits perfectly . The only difference is not in dimensions but a tiny bit that is chrome lined on the bottom of the bcg. Other than that they are identical.
 
You are welcome. I had this exact same issue a while back and no one else seemed to know, so I called colt customer service and got the answer. What is funny is prior to calling colt I emailed arms unlimited and they thought the bolt would not fit. I emailed them again after I talked to colt and they still haven't updated the listing . Oh, well.....
