I remember back in the late 1970s, there was a Sergeant in my Marine Corps unit that had a personally owned Colt carbine. I never really paid any attention as to which model it was. Most likely it was a SP1 model. He used to use it on some of our training missions. In those days, a carbine was one of the coolest types of weapons to own. These days, no so much as nearly every Tom, Dick, and Harry owns one. It is still cool to own the older SP1 Sporters and Carbines.
