It's 556 then. Colt marked the sporters 223 because nobody knew what 556 was.

ahhh ok that makes me feel a little better about the trade then. i was trying to figure out if id kick myself for not holding out for a 556
Which model colt? If you would rather have a gun marked 5.56, I would trade you one for the colt.
not worried about markings so much, not sure which model it is yet. have not gotten it, still workin some things out with the guy
Why do people get boners over Colt AR's? I've heard quite a few AR fanatics say they aren't any better quality than Bushmaster XM15's.
Exactly, my wife has one and it'll shoot anything... hell of a gun.
5.56
Older bushmasters are pretty close other than the lack of park under the fsb. Same reason people get boners for Colt 1911s, single and double action revolvers. They are Colts. Quite arguably the most iconic firearms c ompany in American history. Lots of copies, some better, some worse, but only one colt. Use to be that if you wanted a Chrome lined barrel, you had to buy an A B C AR. Armalite, Bushmaster, Colt.
