Colt M-2012 Wood/Gray Bolt Action

This M2012 is built for Colt Manufacturing by Cooper Firearms, and Cooper knows how to build an accurate rifle. In making this M2012 for Colt, they built a very reliable, comfortable, portable, and superbly-accurate rifle. Weighing in at eight and three-quarters pounds on my scale, this M2012 has plenty of heft, without being too cumbersome or heavy to carry. The gray laminated hardwood stock is very comfortable to use, and is fitted with two forward and one aft sling attachment studs. The butt is finished with a soft Decelerator recoil pad. The pistol grip has a slight right-hand palm swell, but being a left-handed shooter, I still found the stock design to be very comfortable to handle. The M2012 uses, thankfully, standard Accuracy International magazines, and is supplied with one five-shot steel magazine. The magazine release is easy to reach, and easy to use. It is also centered and fully ambidextrous.
