Rampart Range Day 26 – Canadian Modular Assault Rifle Update Manufactured by Colt Canada, the two variants of the Canadian Modular Assault Rifle have been designated C25 and C26 and will replace the currently fielded C7 and C8 which have been in service for 35 years. Chambered in 5.56mm NATO, Colt Canada was able to quickly bring the project to fruition due to improvement efforts which have been ongoing. I was able to photograph and fire both variants at Rampart Range Day. These photos are configured as per the contract, including optics and outfitted with the Strategic Sciences Corporation Multi Function Muzzle Device provided in Canada by Millbrook Strategic Sciences. Interestingly, the Department of National Defence did not option the add-on component of the MFMD and are sticking solely with the primary device. Additionally, both models are outfitted with new variable power optics by Colt Optics. Both feature ambidextrous controls and a single piece upper receiver which integrates the handguard. The C25 (General Service) features: Still in final development, the C26 (Full Spectrum) features: The production contract which was awarded in March calls for 30,000 assault rifles between 2026 and 2029.
