The Colt AR-15 9mm Carbine – “Restricted Military/Government/Law Enforcement/Export Use Only” is a semi-automatic AR-platform carbine chambered in 9×19mm Parabellum (9mm Luger). These rifles were produced by Colt during the period surrounding the 1994–2004 Federal Assault Weapons Ban and were marked with the now-famous restricted rollmark. The marking itself does not make the firearm a machine gun or military-only weapon today; it was primarily a legal designation used at the time.

* Caliber: 9mm Luger (9×19mm)
* Action: Blowback-operated, semi-automatic
* Barrel: Typically 16 inches

** (No magazine including with this firearm)** (Firearm Only)

About the “Restricted” Marking
The rollmark:
“Restricted Military/Government/Law Enforcement/Export Use Only”
was used on certain Colt rifles and carbines manufactured during the federal ban era. Collectors often seek these rifles because the markings are historically tied to that period.
Collector Interest
Many Colt enthusiasts consider the restricted-marked carbines desirable collectibles. Original examples with factory configuration, matching components, and good condition often command a premium over comparable non-restricted Colts.

Shopping at Guns.com gives you the backing of a company that is committed to your satisfaction. And unlike our competitors, it extends beyond the buying process. We get the FFL from your store – others make you find it, copy it, and fax it. We have a generous return policy, and handle everything – you don’t have to go back to the store. And our Rangemasters are here to answer all your questions about our products or process. We're bringing a level of service to the online gun buying experience that is unheard of.
Many online gun sales actually take away from your local community. Instead of buying a gun that’s on your local store’s shelf, most retailers drop ship it from a warehouse in another state. At Guns.com, if an FFL is part of our network, we sell THEIR guns first whenever possible. That way, we’re helping small businesses in your community AND if they have it in stock, you can pick your gun up IMMEDIATELY – it’s how business should be done.
Most everything can be easily bought online these days. But for some reason, buying a gun online can be complicated. Most websites are poorly organized, don’t tell you a lot about what you’re buying, and leave you on your own to figure out what you want. Guns.com is built to be simple – easily organized products, useful descriptions from experts, and support to guide you to the right choice. Spend your time enjoying the gun you want, not getting frustrated with a complex website that makes gun buying hard.
