RARE NIB COLT M4 PISTON CARBINE 5.56 NATO - LE6940P - THE BEST AR15 RIFLE COLT EVER MADE
Description: This gun is New In The Box (NIB) and has only been fired by Colt as a part of its standard proof testing and quality control inspections. This gun is considered by many to be the finest AR style rifle that Colt ever sold on the civilian market. It has been discontinued for several years so finding one new in the box is a rare event. The finish on the gun is 100% and it is in 100% perfect mechanical condition. The gun comes in the original box which is serial numbered to the gun. It also comes in the original Colt shipping bag which is also serial numbered to the gun. The original Colt Accessory Kit in the original Colt baggy is included with this gun. It contains: The original Colt Owner's Manual; the original cleaning kit with bore brush and chamber brush; three original Colt quad rail fore end covers; the original Colt sling with 2 swivels; an original Colt 20 round magazine that came with the gun. A few words about the Colt Piston Carbine and why it is so special: COLT LE6940P Advanced Gas Piston Operated Carbine Description The Colt LE6940P is an advanced modular, 5.56mm, piston-operated, lightweight, one-piece upper receiver, magazine fed carbine capable of firing in semi-automatic mode. The Colt LE6940p incorporates a unique articulating link piston (ALP) operating system that reduces the inherent stress in the piston stroke by allowing for deflection and thermal expansion. The barrel has a 1 in 7 twist that assists in stabilizing heavier bullets. The LE6940P is specifically designed for ease of cleaning, disassembly, and assembly of parts. It comes equipped with Colt’s monolithic rail assembly and foldable adjustable aperture backup sights with an adjustment lever graduated in 100 meter increments. COLT LE6940P Piston Carbine - Colt's Alternative Operating System to Direct Impingement Designs Piston technology is nothing new for Colt. In fact, Colt was the first to put a piston system into an AR platform in the late 1960’s to meet a US Army request. The Colt Model LE6940P represents an improved and refined version of the original piston technology that Colt developed for the AR platform. The advantages that a piston design has over standard direct impingement AR rifles include: (1) An operating environment in which the piston keeps the bolt and upper receiver relatively isolated from burned powder fouling that causes problems with direct impingement rifles; (2) Greatly improved reliability due to operating system cleanliness; (3) Easier cleaning and maintenance. Overall, piston technology represents a new level of development for the AR platform. If you are interested in Colt Defense manufactured AR platform rifles, this is the ultimate weapon. It does not get any better than this. COLT LE6940P Specifications caliber:5.56×45 NATO (.223 Rem.) weight:6.79 lbs (3.07 kg) overall length (stock retracted):32 in.
