Colt CK901 7.62x39mm

Recommended Posts

Colt has debuted an AR-AK hybrid ... a 7.62x39mm rifle with a direct-impingement operation system, monolithic upper & 16" barrel with 13" SBR in the future, supposedly compatible with all available polymer and metal 7.62x39mm AK magazines, and of course it's made by the Pony Express of Colt.

I am a fan of both 7.62x39mm and AKs and I would probably love to have one of these.  If I could afford an ACOG to go with it, (Many do not know there is a 3x30 ACOG in 7.62x39mm -calibrated BDC made by Trijicon) I would be very happy.  

 

 

 

No word of price or civilian availability yet.  HOWEVER- I DO REMEMBER , I myself saw an article of Texas Gov. Rick Perry firing what was thought to be the LE901 in 7.62x39mm and no comment was ever made on the picture of him firing it by Colt or anyone.  Maybe this was that rifle?  I mean it had to be.

I remember seeing that pic of Gov. Perry shooting that rifle. I think you are correct, it is the CK901.

 

I just bought, but haven't received an LE901. I wonder if the 7.32x39 CK901 upper would be compatible with the LE901.

The mag well on the CK looks a little different. Would be interesting if they are compatible.

Man I am very jealous that is a hell of a rifle!!!  I never owned a Colt but I really would love one, something about Colt, in all things, just sets them apart.  A Colt 1911 has prestige, a Colt M4 /LE9240 etc. is just different than even a comparable quality AR, etc.

 

Congrats man that's a great rig.  I am out of 5.56 and into the 7.62x39mm and .308 Win calibers so I also would be very interested.  Especially if it was both!

I guess I would prefer a piston AR over a non-piston AR if I had to choose between the two, and when I was spec'ing out a 7.62x39mm AR I was going to go with a piston, but I would be fine with this rifle- and I have a strange, strange feeling that Colt knows what they're doing, and if they're happy with it as a Direct Impingement gas system I would bet they know it's going to work fine.

 

 

I don't know stuff about stuff but I am sure Colt does.

    • It's physically a 2 lane road where there was plenty of room to avoid the pedestrians. Including the "parent and child" that were literally on the roads edge. The camera is a fisheye, and the ATV was much closer than it looked coming around the curve and there was no time to stop. The cop caused the crash and injury while further endangering pedestrians. This could have been handled differently, without injury. E.g. He could have set up further back and turned his lights and sirens on and gave the ATV time to stop. Again, illegally riding an ATV is a fineable offense, that's it. Does not justify lethal force by auto.  I hope he sues and wins. 
    • It's not really a road. It's supposed to just be open to pedestrian traffic. "Farnum Drive has been open to just pedestrian traffic since 2020. A large number of people, including families with children, were in the area." Voy beat me to it.
    • Thanks for this.  It wasn’t clear from the video that it is a pedestrian path.  It looked like a dual use back road.   It wasn’t a street.  It is a paved pedestrian path.  There is no expectation by those using it of any vehicles. What would a cop be expected to do if a dirt bike was careening down a busy sidewalk in the city?   Second, the police car had stopped.  Any force in this equation LITERALLY came from the ATV.  
    • N.J. Family Man From Quiet Suburbs Speaks Out About Home Invasion By John Petrolino | 1:01 PM | May 03, 2024 John Kabourakis talked about his community and how the location is perfect for an active family that enjoys doing things and staying on the go. Kabourakis then talked about the early morning of February 29, 2024. After hearing a loud noise, Kabourakis retrieved his handgun and went to investigate. Having children in the home is cause to investigate things that go bump in the night, and Kabourakis said he walked down a hallway to a second story landing in his home. While on the landing he said, “I'm looking down into my kitchen area and I see a flashlight moving my kitchen, and all of a sudden a person came into my focus, wearing a hoodie, a mask, gloves, and [was] carrying a flashlight.” Linky thingy: https://bearingarms.com/john-petrolino/2024/05/03/nj-family-man-from-quiet-suburbs-speaks-out-about-home-invasion-n1224765?utm_source=badaily&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=nl&bcid=00ea90fbf351bbfd29c96affd26f2dca49954a466ec9e3e8139f308bd8a1cb93
