Description
Product Overview
The Colt Competition CSR-1516 is a precision-oriented AR-15-pattern rifle chambered in 5.56 NATO and compatible with .223 Remington ammunition. Its 16-inch manganese-phosphate-finished barrel uses a 1:8 twist and a carbine-length gas system, while the low-profile gas block and 12-inch free-float forearm support consistent handling and practical customization. A Colt Match-Target 6-pound Nickel-Teflon-coated trigger provides a defined trigger pull, and the six-position adjustable stock allows the length of pull to be tailored to the shooter. The rifle includes forged alloy receivers, an integral trigger guard, an A2 flash hider, and a removable 30-round magazine.

I absolutely love this...
I absolutely love this rifle. Its bare-bones, lightweight and exactly what you need for competition. Only a quick swap on some parts and I was ready to go for 3 Gun. Thank You BUDS!!!!!! - Wish you still sold these because I would buy another in a heartbeat.

Lite and accurate,...
Lite and accurate, great deal for the money. The trigger is better than most AR's, changed the trigger springs with a lighter set and now it's even better.

The fit and finish of...
The fit and finish of this rifle is superb. The accuracy at 100 yards with Federal 50gr Tipped Varmint ammo is sub moa. For a rifle with this type of profile it's a steal. Just going to be another one of my coyote hunting rifles anyhow. No failures whatsoever and holds a great group. Trigger could use some work, but all my ARs have crummy triggers. It's wearing a Burris 4.5-15x42 in Weaver tactical rings. Going to get years of use out of this Colt. For a light contour rifle with a 16" barrel it shoots like a house of fire. A little DIY dip kit and I'm set. FAST shipping from Buds.
