The Colt M7 is a formidable tool for today’s small unit tactical military sniper or mid-range designated marksman.

AU, fast shipping excellent packaging. Rifle looked great the only issue I observed is the trigger guard roll pin ear was scratched up from the installation. Rifle had some malfunctions and will further test with different ammo. Issues, failure to lock back on last round, fail to strip round from magazine and failure to feed.
Beautiful rifle, excited to get this regardless. Also banged up like others, with scratches and exposed shiny dings. Comes with "all" the bare essentials and is solid as a rock! I'd buy two if I were you.
This company rocks when it comes to customer service. I am very happy with the purchase of the new CM 7. Can’t wait to take it out and give it a full detailed rundown…
This is an excellent rifle. Has typical mil-spec finish. Lower is roll-marked which is awesome. Bolt is marked mpc, bolt carrier is C stamped. Handguard is rock solid. MBUS pro sights were a nice choice. They must have found a cache of these lowers from 2017 or something and decided to build them out.Very happy overall to have one of these soon to be highly collectible rifles. Lower to upper fitment is very tight. Some handling marks present but this is a colt battle rifle so who cares. I think the price is fair.
Finish on the rifle is very greasy and not a nice black. The charging handle is awful annd proprietary. Everything else is cool.
I know colts track record and why this is discontinued but the right side bolt release doesn’t work. It appears to be missing a roll pin which I hope I can fix on my own. On top of that, i don’t know if it happened the first time or in factory test firing but the the cam pin grove in the upper already has a notch taken out of the upper. The is a hard ding on the upper near the front take down pin that exposes shiny aluminum. For other collectors, just an fyi, my serial is low 8000.
