Colt Mono Carbine 5.56 16.1" 30rd Bk

The Colt Mono Carbine 5.56 16.1" 30rd Black (CR6940) is a modern semi-automatic AR carbine engineered for patrol, training, and tactical applications where a compact, reliable platform is essential. Built by Colt's Manufacturing—a name synonymous with AR platform excellence—this monolithic carbine delivers the accuracy and ergonomics demanded by law enforcement and serious shooters operating in confined spaces.

At 16.1 inches, the barrel balances velocity retention in 5.56 NATO and .223 Remington with maneuverability that defines modern carbine design. The monolithic upper receiver design minimizes rail shift under optic mounting, critical for maintaining zero during intensive training or duty cycles. Weighing 9.88 pounds, the carbine remains controllable for extended shooting sessions while maintaining the inertia necessary for reliable cycling. The black anodized finish provides corrosion resistance in varied environments. The polymer grip and collapsible stock enable rapid adjustments for different shooters and gear configurations. The included 30-round magazine meets standard capacity expectations for carbine platforms.

This carbine serves law enforcement agencies, military units, and civilian operators who prioritize proven reliability over experimental features. The 5.56 NATO caliber offers lower recoil than larger rifle cartridges while delivering consistent performance across duty and training environments. Compact AR carbines like this model are the standard choice for patrol carbine programs, active shooter response training, and home defense scenarios where barrel length under 18 inches improves room-clearing capability without sacrificing velocity. The platform's modularity ensures long-term parts availability and accessory compatibility.
