Diemaco was a Canadian firearms and defence company, based in Kitchener, Ontario. Its most successful product was the M16A2 rifle, an update of Colt's Manufacturing Company's M16A1. This was the basis of the C7 and its variant, the C8 carbine, which constitute the main infantry weapons of the Canadian Forces. All small arms used by the Canadian Forces were either manufactured or serviced by Diemaco. In addition, they supplied weapons to the armed forces of the Netherlands, Norway, United Kingdom and Denmark.

  • Op 20 mei 2005 werd Diemaco overgenomen door Colt, zodat het bedrijf nu verder gaat als Colt Canada Corporation. Onder licentie van Colt worden zo ook de Diemaco C7 en Diemaco C8 gefabriceerd. Deze wapens zijn afgeleid van de M16, die op zijn beurt weer is afgeleid van de ArmaLite AR15. Zowel de Diemaco C7 als de Diemaco C8 worden door de Nederlandse Strijdkrachten gebruikt als vervanging van de FAL en de Uzi.
