I know there is only a few of us but I would like to see some pics of your 901s! Can't really find much online. Here is mine, its pretty basic with just an Eotech on it. I use it for hog hunting and love it.

Not trying to be a Debbie Downer, but isn't there only like 4 different setups? I guess you can change the stock, grip and sights, well i guess if you're Canucks, you get a wider variety.

I really wish there was more support for this platform.

Yup that's the one I've been waiting for. I think a Trijicon Accupower 1-8 would fit nicely on top of the new 901. They will probably be discontinued by the time I save enough to buy one though.

I have the Marc 901 with the screw in rails, I have the accupower 3-9 on it for hog hunting but i’m going to get a
1-8 accupower on there so I can shoot 3gun heavy with it. Mine loves hornady 168 A max. It’s super accurate with those.

Do you guys know if the 901 takes a std 308 charging handle?

Never mind, found it, it proprietary

Why the hell does Canada get the MRR and we get discontinued?

Colt is making them in 6.5c now. 16inch barrel. They have done zero marketing.

Been using a Rise Armament single stage trigger for a few years, which I like but may ultimately replace with a Geissele as I seem to be going to all 2-stage triggers. Optic is a Vortex Viper HS 2.5-10x44 in a lightweight Aero mount. VTAC padded sling, which I feel like is a must.

Seems to hold just under MOA at 100 yards using 168gr FGMM (5 shots), but the Malaysian surplus L2A2 has been surprising me by consistently turning in sub-2 MOA groups, so that's been my go-to most of the year.

18" stainless barrel on the 6.5CM, actually, and what looks like a 17" handguard.

The .308 version of this rifle has a 16" chrome lined barrel (1:12 twist though - urr) and a 15" handguard.

This platform has always intrigued me...hope it grows popularity.

Thinking about replacing stock on mine, can any mil spec size stock fit it?

The zero marketing is mystifying. Did Soros or Bloomberg buy Colt with the hopes of running it and all other gun companies into the ground? This platform really appears to have potential. If it wasn't for this site, I'd know nothing about this gun. Weird.

I love mine, Its been 100% reliable (except with omega silncer which overgasses it) for 3 years now. It will group under an inch 5 shot groups and is pretty light for a heavier barrel. Colt could really have taken the market with this but really dragged their feet.

Bloomberg and soros are threats to the American way of life. Those guys don’t realize what gun control does to the economy. Plus you would figure that people of the Jewish faith would want ways for people to defend themselves.

I saw one of the 6.5 creedmoor rifles at a gun show in winston Salem. It had a stainless steel barrel and looked to be a 16 inch barrel since the muzzle extended only slightly past the rail.
