Description
Colt LE M4 5.56mm Commando CQB Monolithic SBR, 11.5" Barrel, Black
Overview
The Colt 11.5” CQB Monolithic Short Barreled Rifle is a compact, mission-focused 5.56mm carbine engineered for close-quarters battle and tactical operations. Built around Colt’s fully unitized URG one-piece upper, this CQB platform provides a free-floated barrel, uninterrupted full-length rail, and the proven performance of an 11.5” chrome-lined M4 contour barrel with A2 flash hider. Lightweight, highly maneuverable, and optimized for rapid target acquisition, the LE6943 is a modern evolution of the Commando/Mk18 lineage.
