Description
This Colt SP1 AR-15 is a pristine example of the early civilian semi-automatic versions of the legendary M16 platform. Featuring a fixed carry handle, triangular handguards, and a pencil-profile 20" barrel, this rifle is a near match for the U.S. military's original issue rifles of the Vietnam War era.
Stamped CAL. .223 and MODEL SP1, this slab-side lower lacks the forward assist and has the early-style slick side upper, which collectors covet for its historical authenticity. The original Colt furniture, including the black A1 stock and checkered pistol grip, is intact and shows typical wear for a rifle of this vintage, with some light handling marks consistent with storage and age.
With its 20-round magazine and vintage flash hider, this rifle makes an ideal addition for collectors of early black rifles or enthusiasts looking to build a historically correct retro clone. Its pre-ban status also adds legal value in restrictive states.
