Back in the 80’s when the AR-15 and M16 were going through several transitional versions like a teenager changes their clothing style, the HBAR by Colt was released. I remember as a young survivalist that the HBAR was simply, “cool!”
This is around the same time the Colt Combat Elite .45ACP came out and the Colt Delta 10mm 1911. Yeah, I was a Colt fanboy back then. Several Colt guns including the Python and Combat Commander remain on my “wish list”.
Today the HBAR can be bought or built. Why would someone take that path? Well, if the goal of a defensive firearm is to put rounds on target accurately in rapid succession – the HBAR with its 20″ barrel is an excellent choice. Running much heavier than a standard M4 or CAR-15, recoil is pretty much nothing. The longer barrel ensures maximum velocity. Recoil? Well, pretty much any AR has minimal recoil. Muzzle rise(different than recoil) is much better than a carbine variant.
So – I have not had an HBAR and I’ve never shot one. I’ve dreamt of having one though and that’s good enough, right? I’ve read numerous articles about them back in the day. I’d really like to build one at some point as the original is just too expensive.
got HBAR?
