Colt Defense LLC, one of the world's leading designers, developers, and manufacturers of rifles and carbines, will bring to market the highly anticipated LE901-16S modular, multi-caliber rifle. The Colt LE901-16S was built with both the tactical professional and modern sportsman in mind. This rifle will be offered in black, with other finishes available later in the year, and has superior accuracy. This modular rifle can be easily changed from .308 Winchester (7.62x51 NATO) chambering to .223 Remington (5.56x45 NATO).
We couldn't immediately understand why an AR-style weapon was situated in the shotgun area of Media Day at the Range during SHOT Show 2012. But we soon realized we were looking at the Akdal MKA 1919 AR-style shotgun.

Comments
The MKA 1919 highly resembles the M16 Rifle and mimics the layout and placement of some of the controls. The Akdal MKA 1919 is unlike many other 12 gauge shotguns as it is very light and ergonomic, this is due to the use of modern and high strength composites.
