The LR 300 is a modification of the Colt AR-15 designed by Allan Zitta of Z-M Weapons. Called the Direct-Impingement Gas System (or DIGS), it extends the gas key and places the gas venting system inside the handguard. This negates the need for a buffer system at the rear and allows a folding stock to be fitted. The weapon was originally made by Z-M Weapons (LR-300) from 2000 to 2007 and Para Ordnance (Tactical Target Rifle) from 2009 to 2011.

The LR-300 comes with either a polymer side-folding 5-position retractable skeleton stock (called a Tele-Fold or Rapid Deployment Stock) or a metal two-strut side-folding stock with a rubber buttpad. The "A" models have an aluminum forend and the "N" models have a Nylatron forend. Military / Law-Enforcement models have full 30-round magazines, while civilian models come with 30-round magazines blocked to hold 10 rounds.

The models of the LR 300 are:

  • LR-300ML-A: Military / Law Enforcement model (Selective Fire version). Has an 11.53-inch [293 mm] barrel, aluminum forend, and fires single shots or bursts.
  • LR-300ML-N: Military / Law Enforcement model (Selective Fire version). Has an 11.53-inch [293 mm] barrel, Nylatron forend with attachable Picatinny rails, and fires single shots or bursts.
  • LR-300SFR: Special Forces Rifle model (Full Auto Fire version). Has a 14.5-inch [368 mm] barrel, aluminum forend, and fires single shots or full auto.
  • LR-300-14.5A: Sport Carbine model (Semi-Auto Fire version). Has a 14.5-inch [368 mm] barrel, aluminum forend, and fires single shots.
  • LR-300-14.5N: Sport Carbine model (Semi-Auto Fire version). Has a 14.5-inch [368 mm] barrel, Nylatron forend with attachable Picatinny rails, and fires single shots.
  • LR-300SR-A: Sport Rifle model (Semi-Auto Fire version). Has a 16.49-inch [419 mm] barrel, aluminum forend, and fires single shots.
