I just bought my first colt ar-15.
Can anyone tell me what model it is?
Serial # SL 015741

P.S. What does the "SL" stand for?

I checked there and the SL is not listed. Not in the model description section


          Thanks

SL027246 and Below are preban.

What does it say on the lower?

Edit: SL is probably "Sporter Lightweight"

Go to Colts webpage and call their customer service number. They will give you the extention of the historical office.
For $25.00 they can tell you what year the rifle left the factory.
For $100.00 they can tell you the date it left the factory, the type of AR15 it was, how it was configured, what other rifles shipped with it and where it was shipped to.

Kind of pricy if you ask me. I would rather spend the $100.00 on ammo.

SL027246 and below are listed as pre-ban guns at Biggerhammer.net.

Call Colt at 1-800-962-2758. They have never charged me a dime for identifying models, verifying pre-ban status, or telling me what year a particular AR-15 was produced.
