Description
The Colt AR-15 A2 Sporter II is a classic pre-ban AR-15 rifle, manufactured by Colt’s Firearms Division in Hartford, Connecticut. Chambered in .223 Remington / 5.56 NATO, this rifle represents one of the early commercial semi-automatic AR-15 variants, closely resembling the military M16A2.
This rifle features the fixed carry handle upper receiver, A2-style sights, a 20” government-profile barrel with 1:7 twist, and a standard flash hider. The black synthetic furniture includes the classic A2 fixed stock and round ribbed handguards. Marked on the receiver with the Colt logo and “Sporter II”, it carries the heritage and collectibility of early civilian AR-15 models.
Collectors and enthusiasts value these rifles for their pre-ban status, Colt rollmarks, and authentic military configuration. Whether you’re looking for a retro shooter or a historically significant piece of Colt production, the AR-15 A2 Sporter II is a highly sought-after rifle.
