Colt Canada

In 1976 the government of Canada contracted with Diemaco Inc. in Kitchener, Ontario to support their existing fleet of small arms (eg. FN FAL rifles, Sterling Sub-Machine guns) with 3rd and 4th Line repair and overhaul. Six years later the Department of National Defence would award the SARP (Small Arms Replacement Program) contract to Diemaco for the supply of C7 rifles and C8 carbines under license from Colt Defense LLC. Several years following the SARP award, Diemaco would be awarded contracts with the governments of the Netherlands, Denmark, the United Kingdom and Norway. Further successes and contracts awards resulted in the supply of Grenade Launchers, Machine Gun mounts and new business opportunities with the Canadian Law Enforcement community for various weapon platforms, based on the C7/C8 family design. In 2005, Diemaco was acquired by Colt’s Manufacturing LLC and our company name changed to Colt Canada. Under new ownership Colt Canada has further expanded and diversified it’s products throughout our customer fleets. In continuing with its formula for success, Colt Canada has more recently been awarded the Canadian Ranger Rifle program for .308 WIN rifle to replace the aging .303 Lee Enfield rifle. In 2017 Colt Canada was awarded the C6A1 GPMG (General Purpose Machine-Gun) program for the Canadian Department of Defence (DND) which will be the first Machine-Gun built in Canada since the second world war.
