The Colt M4 Commando is a versatile weapon system with proven combat utility and
performance providing the operator with the confidence required to accomplish any mission.
The Colt M4 Commando is the most compact of Colt’s 5.56mm family of weapons. It
features a four position sliding buttstock and a 11.5 in. (29 cm) long barrel and is
designed for use wherever lightness, speed of action, mobility and close quarters combat
are required. It can be comfortably carried, yet be instantly available to provide the
power of a 5.56mm weapon.
Applications in Close Quarters Combat, light weight, ease of handling, accuracy and
reliability are qualities that make the Commando a valid choice of many special units and
mission specific assignments. The M4 Commando meets all of the Special Forces’,
Front-Line Infantry, Paratroopers’, Unit Commanders’, vehicle crews’ and
numerous security forces’ operational needs. Furthermore, Colt’s M4 Commando is
often chosen over smaller less powerful sub-machine guns, allowing for full 5.56mm power
and accuracy, in a sub-machine gun size weapon.
Regardless the application, the Colt M4 Commando will provide the superior qualities
that will enable the user to accomplish the stated mission. The new concepts of rapid
deployment, mobility and increased firepower play a major part in the overall strategy of
modern warfare. Increased emphasis is now put on small tactical units that engage in close
combat and are able to “get in and out” fast. Colt’s M4 Commando can
successfully surpass these operational requirements.
Colt Defense LLC is the sole source supplier of
the M4 Carbine to the US military and the only manufacturer worldwide that meets or
exceeds all US military specifications for the weapon.
