Colt M4 OEM1 Carbine 5.56 NATO Blue/Black Rifle

This factory configuration includes a 16.1-inch chrome-lined barrel with a 1:7 twist rate, an A2 front sight base, a flat-top receiver with Picatinny rail, a carbine-length gas system, and a pistol grip. The OEM1 intentionally omits the handguard, buttstock, trigger guard, magazine, and rear sight, giving builders and dealers a flexible starting point for a personalized setup.
