Specifications
This Colt AR-15 SP1 Semi-Automatic Rifle, manufactured in 1977, is a prime example of Colt’s early civilian AR-15 production. The SP1 is known for its lightweight 20" pencil barrel, slick-side upper, and classic fixed-stock configuration—making it one of the most faithful civilian versions of the original AR-15 design. This rifle is in very good condition, showing only light cosmetic wear consistent with careful ownership. The anodizing remains strong, the bore is clean and bright, and the action cycles smoothly. All markings are crisp, and the rifle retains its classic Colt character throughout. Collectors value SP1 rifles for their historical significance, pre-ban status, and exceptional shootability. This 1977 example is an excellent opportunity to own a genuine piece of AR-15 history.
