@neolehel well the 5.56 bullet was designed literally to wound...not kill ...in Afghanistan most of the fighting was from far distances and the 5.56 was proven crappy in Afghanistan.. the Scar H would probably be the best weapon for Afghanistan but the m4 for Iraq..this is not my opinion but a fact..
@TheJasonDR Yes,you're right.But i'm not sure if the m4 is the best weapon for Iraq.Personally,i like the Magpul Masada,is a great gun...i also like the Ferfrans SOAR
@TheJasonDR 5.56 was defiantly NOT designed to wound... 5.56 and 5.45 are often call "venom rounds" or "poison bullets" for a reason. They are more than lethal. Unless of course you think most modern militaries are wrong. Not to mention carrying around .308 is a pain in the ass because of it's weight. why would you want a m4 for iraq and a scar17 for afgh? The M4 is much lighter, less expensive, plenty reliable, and plenty lethal. None of your "facts" are true!
I like the design but who's wanting this? Unless you're really strapped for cash and can only afford one gun to outfit for everything it seems a little silly. As a .308 it looks awesome but converted you just end up with a bulky, 9 pound .223.
@oldannyboy37 its to bridge the gap between big heavy precision and light and handy.. its an piece engineering genius to an operator, think about it if your over watch in an AO spread out over large area and you get called in from down range to clear a building you may have been watching.. your not gonna want a 16'' gun that weighs 9 pounds. a 9'' 7 lb carbine is exactly what you want. it fits the bill for many active operators LEo's and even civilian shooters Two $2k+ guns in 1!
I love colt ya can they be stingy in developement, and sales yes. However, they notice things on T.V and critics and came out with what Mack on Military channel were saying about the M-4 line.
@Coolbill34 I don't think it's meant for civilian sales. The fire selector has an Auto setting, and the "LE" on the model designation suggests a Law Enforcement weapon.
@Coolbill34 That model is probably made for LE use. If you don't live in a 2A unfriendly state you can always pay for the tax stamp to own one anyways. There's a ton of people with SBR AR-15s out there.
Also you cant just throw on any 556 upper. They should of made a lower block. Colt wants to make as much money as they can so there for they make a propriatry upper. BS.
I don't like this conversion thing.I don' t want a LEGO gun wtf.

10.1 inch barrel in .223? How is that legal? I thought rifle barrels are required to have at least a 16" barrel to be owned by civilians...
