C25 Sharpshooter
Shaped through service, every model in the new C25 Series embodies Colt Canada’s deep understanding of evolving operational realities and the real-world user’s needs.
The next-generation C25 Sharpshooter delivers uncompromising accuracy and reliability in a modular, highly adaptable form-factor that’s optimised for sniper operations where accuracy is paramount. Advancing on the proven performance of the renowned Colt Canada C7/C8 platform, the C25 Sharpshooter empowers today’s soldier to fight with greater stealth and precision against harder targets.
Reflecting Colt Canada’s pursuit of continuous, customer-focused improvement, the C25 Series has been developed in close collaboration between Colt Canada, the Department of National Defence and the Canadian Armed Forces as a major step beyond the C7/C8 platform that has served Canadian and allied forces since the 1980s.
