Quest A6-4 identification
I have a lot of old Quest A6-4 motors with a black and blue label that says Made in the USA. I remember that they were newer than the original Quest motors that had the white and orange label. There is no printing on the actual motor casing if the label is removed. They have a rounded looking clay nozzle and burn very quickly sending a rocket considerably higher than an Estes A8-3. They have a thick white smoke trail during the delay and a nuclear ejection charge that likes to break shock cords. Does anyone know if these are actually US made motors, or are they Chinese or German? The thrust profile reminds me of a mini FSI F100. The label looks like the attached image.

I believe these were made on the actual Quest motor making machines. The machines were located on an Indian reservation in Arizona.
After a tragic fire Quest stopped making their motors and imported from Germany and later mainland China.
