Warranty is not the right word however they are part of the depot level repair program with the military weapons tech providing armoury repair. Certain types of repair and rebuild are done at Colt Canada when it is beyond what the weapons techs can do. They will also do the rebuilds. Colt Canada is currently doing this for all of our small arms less the browning HP. We just upgraded our rifles as an extension of the contract. In the past our service rifles went in for rebuild around 15 years.

So yes, it is part of the contract to support the maintenance of the rifles. Does that make sense?
