imschur Posted March 19, 2011 Report Share Posted March 19, 2011 THE RIFLE FOR ANY HUNT!Be it prairie dog hunting in Texas, whitetail hunting in Maine or elk hunting in Colorado, the Colt SP901™ is the rifle for the hunt. Chambered in the classic .308 Winchester (7.62x51 NATO) cartridge, the SP901 is the perfect choice for medium to large sized game animals. Exceptional accuracy is assured by its full floated, 16" chrome lined barrel and one-piece monolithic upper receiver, suitable for mounting your optic of choice. Keeping the varmint hunter in mind, the .308 Winchester upper receiver group can be easily swapped out for any Mil-Spec Colt upper receiver chambered in .223 Rem (5.56x45 NATO). The fact that all operating controls are ambidextrous, including the magazine release, bolt catch and safety, makes for versatility and ease of use. You can depend on the new Colt SP901 to take the shot of your lifetime! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

imschur Posted March 30, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 30, 2011 Not much info. I suspect being a Colt it will be a while before we know anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
