About M16A2 COLT M715

The M16A2 COLT M715 is a specific variant of the U.S. military's standard M16A2 service rifle, manufactured by Colt. The designation "M715" is Colt's internal factory model number for this particular version, which is officially known and adopted as the M16A2. This model is most distinctly characterized by its simplified and rugged field sights. Unlike the more common standard M16A2 (Colt Model 645), which features a rear sight adjustable for both windage and elevation, the M715 variant was built with a non-adjustable or simpler field sight system, emphasizing durability and ease of use in basic training or certain field conditions.
The rifle chambered the 5.56x45mm NATO cartridge and featured the key improvements that defined the A2 generation over the earlier M16A1. These included a heavier barrel with a 1-in-7 inch twist rate to stabilize newer, heavier bullets, a redesigned handguard, a rounded forward assist, and a case deflector to aid left-handed shooters. Critically, it replaced the fully automatic firing mode of the M16A1 with a three-round burst function. Weighing approximately 7.0 pounds (3.2 kg) with an overall length of just over 39 inches, the M16A2 platform, including the M715 variant, served as the primary infantry rifle for the U.S. military for decades and remains in use with some units today.
