Revision as of 14:35, 11 July 2018

The Calico Series of Rifles and Pistols are a series of pistol-caliber weapons produced by Calico Light Weapon Systems, initially established in Bakersfield, California (hence Cali-co). The company moved to Sparks, Nevada in 1998 and in 2006 shifted to their current location in Elgin, Oregon.

Their weapons are notable for being one of the first commercial uses of a helical magazine, mounting a large octagonal spring-powered "clockwork" device above the action containing 50 or 100 rounds which is wound up by hand before use to tension the spring. Due to the odd design that results, the magazine also incorporates the weapon's rear sight.

  • The Calico M100 is a blowback-operated .22 LR rifle that usually comes with a 100 round .22 LR helical tubular magazine and has a collapsible stock. It first came out in the 1980s and was probably one of the most unusual and futuristic looking firearms of its time. Unlike other Calico weapons, the 100 and 110 have an ejection port on the right side of the receiver.

Calico M110

Calico M110 - .22 LR

This is a smaller version of the M-100 .22 LR Pistol. It is frequently called the M-100P, which was the older model this replaced, Calico no longer sells the M-100P. The bolt was changed to make it slightly lighter and the feed lip changed in the magazine. The parts are mostly interchangeable, the only modification for older 100P would be that you'd need to have minor modifications to the barrel to use the current magazine design.

  • The Calico M951 is a select fire version of the nearly identical M900 Semi Auto Carbine, except the 951 has a special compensator (much like a mini Cutts Compensator) that is larger than the compensator for the M900. Like all 9mm Calico variants it uses roller-delayed blowback like the Heckler & Koch MP5, and has a downward-pointed ejection port forward of the trigger, resembling the magazine well of a conventional SMG or rifle.

Calico M950A select fire pistol with factory foregrip - 9x19mm
  • The Calico M950 is the pistol version of the 9x19mm carbine. It is also available in a full auto version, the M950A, however, movie armorers have converted M950 semi-automatic pistols to emulate the M950A in films, thus contributing to the confusing array of variants appearing in films that fire fully automatic. The M950A from the factory has a pistol foregrip to aid in controlling barrel climb during full auto fire. In some films like I Come In Peace, the gun is a converted M950 (with an accelerated rate of fire) but the foregrip was not installed since blanks don't create the muzzle climb that live rounds do. Neither the M950 nor the M950A have a retractable stock, nor can one be installed on that type of receiver, so if you see a retractable stock, it is not one of these models.
