The M-100S Sporter configuration pairs the .22 LR M-100 action with a factory wood thumbhole stock and Monte Carlo comb, complemented by a matching wooden fore-end. This setup gives the Sporter variant its distinct profile while retaining the platform’s unique top-mounted magazine interface.
Calico’s proprietary helical system is central to this design. This rifle is built around the top-mounted interface and comes with two 100-round magazines, enabling the platform’s stated 100+1 capacity with a 100-round mag installed.
The 16-inch barrel is fitted with a conical multi-fin flash hider. Sighting is via iron sights with an AR-15-style A-frame tower front sight and protected post. The action is semi-automatic blowback with a manual safety, and the receiver wears a matte black finish.
Origin and markings are clear: "MADE IN U.S.A.," "MADE IN BAKERSFIELD, CA. U.S.A.," "U.S. & FOREIGN PATENTS PEND.," and "American Industries" are present, identifying its U.S. manufacture and company provenance.
