Colt C8 Variant Series Weaopons Special Operations Forces

Introducing the Colt Canada Integrated Upper Receiver. Today’s high tech battle situations require our soldiers and law officers to bear the burden of multi-tasking many accessories at once from lasers and lights to electronic sighting systems. Engineered to give the operator of this weapon system the maximum in flexibility. A solid, light-weight metal, one piece upper receiver that fits smoothly onto any Colt Canada lower receiver makes the transition to the IUR quick and simple. Third party rail systems are no longer required. They can be expensive, complicated and prone to breakage due to the stresses of hard training and use in combat.

The IUR gives the operator Four Solid Rails in Weaver or MIL-STD 1913 (Picatinny); two rails @ 3 and 9 o’clock for accesssory mounting; one reinforced 6 o’clock rail with recoil lug for a grenade launcher, underslung shot-gun or forward grip mounting and one 12 o’clock 355mm or 500mm continuous rail for various inline sighting options. Barrel length now becomes an option! Your Colt Canada, cold hammer forged barrels can be easily swapped out to suit your operational requirements, from Close Quarter Battle 11.6”, Standard 14.5”, Extended 15.7” or Rifle 20”. The IUR is a float tube, where like a sniper rifle, the floating barrel provides for greater accuracy from a system that already fires 1 MOA. The IUR is here!

C8A3 Carbine Colt

The C8 carbine Variant Series C8CQB, C8A2, C8A3, C8SFW, C8CT became popular with vehicle crews, police and special operations forces due to its short barrel and adjustable stock. It is now employed by Armed Forces and Police units world-wide as their standard issue battle/patrol rifle. The original gas impingement system in 5.56 mm has been battle proven in harsh combat environments, from Arctic snow and ice to Desert sands for over 25 years in the C8 Carbine Series Canada Rifle configuration and longer for M4 versions. The C8 retained its basic footprint from its American cousin the Colt M4. Years of development in partnership with the Canadian Armed Forces and a number of engineering changes have made this weapons system distinctly Canadian.

One of many but certainly the most significant development is the cold hammer forged barrel, which gives the C8 a much longer life span than other AR systems. The C8 Carbine system can be custom-configured to meet your operational requirements. Barrel lengths in 10” or 11.6” C8CQB, 15.7” C8 SFW or 14.5” C8A2, C8A3, C8SFW and C8 CT Canada Rifle along with the many accessories and sighting options available can create a weapon system that will be flexible and adaptable to your units small arms requirements.
