    Colt OEM3?

    Anybody heard anything about Colt releasing an OEM3 model? Basically the CCU rifle minus the furniture.

    I haven’t heard anything like that but an OEM lightweight/mid-length gun would be a top selling setup.

    Could be cool I guess. I think the CCU already has good furniture. Well the handguard. The stock and grip are throwaways.

    Hope Colt releases the OEM-3. I would purchase one of available and if priced similar to the 6920 OEM.

    I have an OEM-2 and I'd buy an OEM-3 in a heartbeat.

    With SHOT show right around the corner, hopefully something along this line will make an appearance.
    If plan A didn’t work, the alphabet has 25 more letters.

    Just ordered an OEM2 for an SBR base. In my opinion the OEM concept makes a lot of sense given the level personalization and individual preference that furniture/rails have. I personally have overlooked certain rifles at times because it was more economical to build from scratch than purchase and replace the parts I didn't want.

    Magpul MOE grip and SL stock, maybe not ideal for everyone, but hardly a throwaway. I agree the waffle stock and A2 grips were sub-optimal and tossed by a lot of people.

    If they do release an OEM3 with the CCU setup I’ll be picking one up. I like that Colt uses a shaved FSB and not a dimpled barrel set screwed gas block.
