If you wonder over to the international sales section of Colt Mfg’s website they have some new(ish) listings for the M5 carbine. The short of it is that the M5 uses new receivers and handguard. The lower is completely ambidextrous similar to their 901 and the handguard mounts to the upper receiver rather than a barrel nut in order to “ensure extreme rigidity.”

They appear to be well thought out and modern even compared to other offerings on the market. They have a full product line with three different calibers and multiple barrel lengths offered including an SCW with a Maxim stock. As someone who has carried a Colt for the entirety of my professional carrier and still prefers the LE6945 to most offerings I would love to see these actually offered here.
Am I alone in my desire to see this here or should we all start a emailing CZ with demands?
