colt SP1
Hello All, Seems like there is lots of knowledge about the SP1.
S/N sp58339
Wondering if anyone can date this old H-bar and a rough idea of value. Its in pretty good shape and shoots well. I have the same problem another questioner had, I shoot left handed and the ejected shells hit my face at times, but that is how these rifles were.

SP1s/M16-A1s don't hit my face with casings when shot left handed. I know it has happened, but must be with poor ammo/ejectors or shooting from contorted positions.
There is a history of ARs by serial number range at Ar15.com. Go check that out and you'll find an approximate production date range.

Re: colt SP1
if you have a rifle without a built in brass deflector which SP1's lacked you can buy a aftermarket brass deflector for a few bucks. i'n not sure who sells them these days but i'm sure a quick google search will bring up places that have them. the brass deflector will solve the issue with spent cases hitting you in the face.
