M16A1 Clone Build

[bogey1]

Yep, came with the "weed catcher".

Is there such a brake where the inside edges are razor sharp?

That does it, I need to start doing my homework and then build one of these M16A1 clones.

I have two M16 A1ish clones. One just like the one I carried in Beirut. An all Colt kit on a converted A2 to A1 lower. The other a Colt "slick side". All Colt with the same converted lower, and the three prong weed catcher. I went on an AR retro binge a few years back. I even made a non SBR XM177 clone. I sold off most of them due to changing tastes, and need for cash.

Found an A1 upper on the arfcom equipment exchange and receiver it Saturday. Finished my build that morning.



Anderson lower and LPK
Brownell's reproduction furniture
JSE surplus had the rest of the unique parts: 20" 1:9 pencil barrel with FSP installed, 3 prong flash hider, DPMS tear drop forward assist, A1 rear sight assembly

I built a shitload of these over the last few year too.

Some of teh Phantom flash hiders are sharp. Not as sharp as a razor though.
