Who sells NEW Colt AR15's in Canada?

The distributor remains R. Nichols (Departmental sales only).

Arms East Inc has excellent access to Colt products, including the Colt Defence line, however, the only legal way to import them is to be a LE member (details available via email, for anyone interested). The Colt Defence guns have 'features' which since late 2005 have been barred from export for general civilian resale. Edit to say, Colt themselves will now only supply to bonafide LE purchasers/dealers as well. Distributors that played with that in the past are now generally unable to get product.

The Match Target line is available for general export, however, Colt really hasn't produced them for a bit. These seem to be manufactured once the M4 orders are done, and the LE orders are done, and Colt just received another massive M4 order, so I don't see too many MT models coming anytime soon.

We just shipped 6520s, and have 6920s in the works (for approved end-users). We can replicate Colt LE line specs with Stag Arms LE models, at substantial savings. (pencil barrels and A2 type uppers not available from Stag).

So, would it be possible to source a Match Target Competition HBAR?

If you are not too fussy about brand new, there are ones in the EE from time to time (and a couple right now I believe) that are lightly used. The going rate for a gently used A2 is very reasonable.

XRC, yes, if Colt is making them when you want one, but I'm with Beltfed on the answer.
 
There are none in the EE. There was a carbine, but it sold in minutes. :(

MT Comp HBAR are current models, full-fence lowers with A3 uppers. Not a Sporter Match with A2.
 
FWIW my A2 is a large pin, marked 'Sporter Match Hbar'
Aside from the mag fence, and maybe the large hole takedown pin, what's the difference?

That's the thing. I want a Colt with the mag fence, with a small hole takedown and with a detachable carry handle.

And I think I just found one thanks to Walt. :D

Dom, I changed this as it seems like a sale thread. You are more than welcome to contribute but you need to make sure you don't go outside of the rules.
