Item Relisted! FS/FT The best M16 A1 Retro Build on ODT

[RR Hunter]

Brownells BRN-16A1
Brownells 1:12 Pencil Barrel (cool)
Real USGI furniture
Colt C Marked bolt
Retro prong flashider

The grey has a couple small marks, but otherwise in excellent condition and the gun shoots like a dream.

I may sell it with the complete working Starlight PVS-2 Scope for an additional $1000.

I also have some GG&G mount furniture for accessories as well as a colt 1:7 C7 barrel.

This is a gorgeous clone but it doesn't fit into my collection and I must sell things to expand my business.

And yet another id love to have…except for the Viet Nam flash hider, it’s exactly like the one I qualified Expert with in boot camp. Qualified 5 more experts with the A2… I have a soft spot, I admit.

Looks just like what I was issued at my first unit out of boot camp. Mine was a Hydramatic and was the last rifle in the Bn with a 3-prong flash hider. Shot expert with it and then we got the A2s.

You can always swap it out for the A1 birdcage. That looks like the E type stock so the birdcage would actually be more correct for this set up, 1969 onwards. Not the that OPs gun isn’t, there were still plenty of three prong hiders in use until 1972.

I come from the A2 era but I always liked the balance and feel of the A1. There is just something about those triangle handguards. They are fragile and impractical from a supply perspective but I just like the way they feel. The A1 feels like it floats in your palm.

For home/self defense this would be awesome. The 1/12 twist barrel and any decent 55gr FMJ ammo would be deadly.

Would you be interested in trading for a S&W M&P 5.7x28mm?
