What weapon is this?

[Ex-Dragoon]

Ummmm would it not make sense for Colt Canada to try and sell one of their products instead of another companies weapon? Why would they have an airsoft weapon when they have their pick of any one of a number of C#?

Hey ED,

WRT the Colt Canada links for the above pic of the 'mystery weapon',  when I tried going there I was bounced, not even getting into the site.

Hence I am not too confident in their source.

Cheers,

Wes

EDITs to say here is what I get when I try these links (all 3)

I don't know about the original links, but the pic IS right from Colt Canada:

Maybe that's Colt's as-of-yet-unpublished competition for the SCAR and Masada/ACR

Of Course.

Might be a Robinson XCR version...But, the magazine well on the unknown gun still looks more "SR-47-ish" compared to the XCR's. One of Daewoo variants ? I have no idea what this is.  Anyone else?


Might be a Bushmaster Auto Rifle ?

Daewoo DR200 ?

Why not email Colt Canada directly and ask?

About two months ago I contacted a Colt Canada. No answer yet ...

 

[Fusaki]

I think I got it.

It's a HK53 variant with a flat top receiver, modified with a rail system and a folding stock.  Apparently MP5 accessories are more or less interchangeable with HK53s.

Notice the location of the charging handle beside the front sight, the distinctive angled magwell, the fire selector switch, and the "tube shaped" reciever.

So you figure Colt is now licenced to produce HKs ?

 

[ajp]

I am not convinced the Magazine housing matches.

 

[Quintilian]

It's not a HK53 variant. ...No other guesses ?

What is throwing me is that there appears to be no break at all between the receiver and hand guard.

The forward slope of the mag housing matches some of the other photos, but the tubular body has me scratching my head.

I'm almost more curious to see how that weapon would break down for cleaning and maint than I am finding out what it is.
