Breaking!!! Colt Canada MRR Release

[fenceline]

Pics up. Sorry about the one turned on its side. I'm working off my cell phone on this one.

 

[Redblack]

Any word on colt releasing spare parts this year?

 

[fenceline]

No word yet. I know o'dell's is trying but somethings are just a matter of waiting for supply or just cc to release them. Which is usually a supply thing. Contracts come first.

 

[mshundal]

do you know if uppers will be available separately?

 

[Trinimon]

Damn it! I said no more ARs in the safe!!! Hmmmm, 11.6" MRR in FDE... time to start saving... again.

If they will be that has not been released. Right now it looks like complete rifles only. Could always buy the rifle and sell the lower.

So......

"Uppers only" are a potential possibility I'm hearing now. A strong maybe.

Judging by how they cave to popular demand (ex. CC F/A BCG's), I bet uppers will be available.

That wasn't caving to demand. They were sold as part of complete guns. That's what they had to complete them with.

They do what they can when they can.

Anodized or cerekote.

I still remember the guys saying "they'll just deliver a couple dozen then stop" when Colt Canada first introduced their rifles to civilians.

Glad they didn't.

Interesting choice of 18.6" barrel length. CC must anticipate that they will become NR with that new petition. Hope they are right. Lol

Just another AR with rails on top and some new slightly different shape grips and same old grips in different places....

What I want to see from Colt Canada is a limited run of original A2 style AR15.
Except with a 20" light barrel 1:9, solid fixed stock, A2 handgaurds and the A2 carry handle/sights (arguably one of the best and most versatile iron sights ever put on a standard rifle).
Would maybe crack the wallet for that. Something different at least. The AR horse has been beat to death for this guy.
All these "new" AR's all look the same.

Or it is a happy coincidence that the harmonics of the barrel affect accuracy well at that length. Just like the "odd" 15.7 length.

Who knows.

I wonder if they even have the parts around to do that. They don't even build front sight block guns anymore.

Good point, never thought of that. Hope my guess is still the reason, if so I will add one for sure, although it seems doubtful at best....
