The Colt Automatic Rifle-15 or CAR-15 is a family of M16 rifle–based firearms marketed by Colt in the 1960s and early 1970s. However, the term "CAR-15" is most commonly associated with the Colt Commando (AKA: XM177); these select-fire carbines have ultrashort 10.5-inch (270 mm) and 11.5-inch (290 mm) barrels with over-sized flash suppressors.
The CAR-15 name was an attempt to re-associate the AR-15 name with Colt, since the AR initially stood for ArmaLite, the original manufacturer of the ArmaLite AR-15. Colt later abandoned the CAR-15 concept, but continued to make carbine variations, using the ""M16" brand for select-fire models and the "Colt AR-15" brand for semi-automatic models. However, in present usage, "CAR-15" is the generic name for all carbine-length variants made before the M4 carbine.
11.5” AR barrel used for pistol. This is an original early Colt M16A1 C marked barrel that was at some point possibly used by military as early LRRP? Very cool piece of history. Of course the current length is only good for Pistol or legal SBR The C mark is at the face of the extension where...
Genuine Colt military upper made in the 1960’s. Painted black with green accents. This upper came from Annapolis. Don’t know anything else about it. However the main Naval base/academy is in Annapolis and makes it very interesting. I read that black paint was common on overseas use as it...

Selling my xm177. This is basically as good as it get without pinning barrel. Barrel is 16” early retro SP1 barrel with CmpB marking. The slip on muzzle device is designed to look like a Vietnam style CAR/GAU device but is actually just a muzzle break that threads on without making the 16”...
