CETME L Rifle Gen 2 - Black Furniture with Rail
Born from the ashes of WWII, the CETME design group wasestablished in Spain, and staffed by many Mauser employees like Dr. LudwigVorgrimler, who brought their research and designs with them. They would laterdevelop and adopt the CETME C, better known to American shooters and collectorsunder its German licensed designation: the G3 / HK91 in 7.62x51 / .308.
Faced with the transition by militaries to the 5.56 in the1970s, and with their pending entrance into NATO, Spain and CETME began inearnest to develop a 5.56 rifle for their military. The result was the lastroller-locking rifle to be adopted by any military, and the first and only onespecifically designed for the 5.56/.223 from the ground up, the CETME L.
Unlike its German cousin the HK33, it was not a scaled downversion of the 7.62 receiver. A totally new design, the CETME L is thinner andhas a smaller form factor. The CETME L served with Spanish troops through the80's and 90's, and was used during their service with Coalition Forces duringOperation Desert Storm. The CETME L continues to serve to this day with SpanishReserve and Police units.
MarColMar uses original Spanish surplus parts, a new made inthe USA receiver, a cold-hammer-forged and nitrided barrel (1-in-7), brand newUS made furniture, all finished with Cerakote, to produce a beautiful newfirearm that is now optimized for US STANAG M-16/AR-15 magazines.
But MarColMar didn't just copy the CETME L, they employedthe newest materials and manufacturing processes (like robot welding) toproduce a rifle even better than could be built in the 1980's. The CETME L isnow even available with a welded picatinny rail, and in four different Cerakotefinishes, original Spanish Green, Black, Grey and FDE. Eventually CETME LVs andLCs will also be offered to owners of the CETME L.
