Sharpen Your Sword & AR = American Rifle

The AR is the American Rifle and we have proof. Before the M-16 and the M-4 there was the Colt AR-15 SP1 Sporter. That rifle was specifically designed and marketed to the American citizen, not the military. To say otherwise is to support a lie.

Now is the time to sharpen your sword. How did Professor Paul sharpening his sword lead to today’s Duracoat Finished Firearm topic? Well, we will tell you. Here’s a hint, it is not a gun.

What goes on behind the scenes? What kind of dreams has Paul been having? Tune in, you really never know what you will get.

“This responds to your Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request … concerning the following: 1. All classification letters (or if classification letters were named in some other way, those records) regarding Model R6000 Colt AR-15 SP1 Sporter Rifle, Serial No. GX4968 which was approved in approximately 1963; and 2. All classification letters … for AR-15 platform rifles predating the submission to the ATF for the Colt AR15 SP1 Sporter Rifle,” Adam C. Siple, Chief Information and Privacy Governance Division, notified attorney Stephen Stamboulieh in a Nov. 22 response (see below). “In response to your request, we have processed a total of 2 pages of responsive material.”

That referenced FOIA request was sent in May on behalf of firearms designer Len Savage and resulted in the production of a Dec. 10, 1963, letter from what was then called Alcohol and Tobacco Tax Division to Colt’s Patent Fire Arms Manufacturing Company, Inc. This is the first such classification for the AR-15 and has not been published before.
