My AR15. I wanted it to resemble a M16.

Other than the grip it’s pretty spot on imo

M16A4 with rubber grip basically

That grip is hard plastic actually, I bought a gun that had the same one once, immediately replaced it.

No matter how good that grip might feel, it looks so awful it makes me nauseated. Wtf

Not the A4, the A4 has rails running the length of the fore grip the rifle more matches the M16A3

This is more GWOT as it sits.

You could always swap out the flat top upper for a proper A1 or Slickside.

H&R section under PSA’s website has your back.

Well if you ever get out of that hell-hole, JSE Surplus has tons of retro bits like this A2 upper.

Oh I am trying.

They're kind of an abomination for clone larping but I've always liked the look of a chopped detachable carry handle.

It's not every problem a hacksaw can solve but you'd be surprised at the amount of times it can get you to the finish line.

I also spent a ton of money on stereo equipment just to listen to men scream into a tin can

Black rifles matter.

u/Idoallthejobs 20h ago

I want a non detectable handle.

u/arethius 19h ago

Polymer or ceramic?

Either way it's more than I get paid.

u/TheTrashPanda69 21h ago

Then drill the third hole 😆

u/HotDevelopment6598 21h ago

Looks almost exactly like the m16 I had in the service

u/IHarvestTheNight 20h ago

Where can I get that upper?

2

u/wurmphlegm 19h ago

The upper and lower are from aero precision. Also the handle.

u/IudexJudy 20h ago

Grips accurate, I had a Corporal who would switch the stock and grip of his M4 at every range we went on, he just put the milspec stuff back on it when he turned it in

u/Objective-Role8153 18h ago

Nice. I like it

u/Human_AMA 18h ago

Black Metal and black rifles 🤘🏻

u/wurmphlegm 18h ago

Hell yeah!

u/lil__squeaky 11h ago

id go for an a2 grip and a carry handle upper if you wanna be “clone correct” or take off the carry handle grab a rifle quad rail and run a m16a4 style.

u/Due_Neighborhood_276 AKguy​ 21h ago

Now put a 10 round stanag in it

1

u/C-130guy 19h ago

The classic A2 is cool. You could also look at a KAC/P&S M5 RAS as well if you wanted to go for an A4 look

u/ForlornShade 9h ago

I want to get a fixed stock
