Colt M5 SCW Sub-Compact Weapon 5.56mm Semi-Auto CQB Rifle | 10.3" Barrel

The Colt M5 SCW features a completely redesigned lower with full ambidextrous controls and an upper with an enhanced rail design which maximizes rail space, shooter comfort and ensures extreme rigidity. The SCW variant is equipped with Colt's patented collapsible folding buttstock for confined space combat operations and close quarters battle. Utilizing a proven carbine length gas system and a purpose designed free float rail system, weight and bulk have been reduced while maintaining the same lethality, accuracy and reliability expected from Colt.

Where previous small caliber personal defense weapons were inadequate in caliber or configuration for engaging varying target sets, the Colt M5 SCW in 5.56x45mm NATO provides the stopping power soldiers need on the battlefield. Its ultra lightweight compact design allows maneuverability in highly confined areas of operation.

The SCW also allows for quick and easy transition from vehicles and aircraft, thus providing much more firepower and range to aircrews and vehicle operators than handguns. Incorporating a new bolt carrier/buffer system, the SCW has been engineered to provide the same dependable reliability Colt is known for in a much more compact design. Additional benefits incorporated into the SCW include a reduction in recoil and an increase in controllability. Equipped with its unique holster/sling system*, the Colt SCW allows the user to easily transition from any other weapon. Designed specifically for vehicle & aircraft crews, joint forces, special operations forces, and reconnaissance units, the Colt SCW provides for increased mobility and firepower on the modern battlefield, but with longer range capabilities than handgun caliber systems. Commonality of ammunition with other weapons in the support formation not only simplifies logistical relief, but also provides for ease of resupply by any supporting unit while conducting operations. With all of these design enhancements and augmentations, this weapon has earned its place among Colt weapons and the right to its name “Colt SCW”.

With maximum performance and ergonomics as the most critical considerations during design, the Colt M5 SCW is truly the next generation in a legacy of high performance rifles for the modern day warfighter.
