I believe Colt produced these for export to countries where 5.56 NATO was restricted (as with the .45ACP in Mexico). From what I remember, they were all made pre-A2 (i.e., slab side, triangular guards, no assist).0 -
Thank you for info!!! Any idea what one would cost and how many were produced????? 0 -

They were never that popular, for obvious reason of ammo cost differential. I see them from time to time on the auction side and elsewhere, with no premium above 5.56mm variants. I have no idea how many were made. An even rarer bird is the M1A in .243---been looking for one for years.0
