@GROOVY846 my guess is that if it IS a real gun i doubt it is a colt (or at least the upper receiver) it doesnt have the colt markings underneath the rear sight like the colt ones have. also there is no definitive way of knowing what brand it is because you never see the other side of the gun where the branding (and model make) are. id be curious to see the other side of the gun.
@dabbchang the gas tube comes out of the barrel underneath the front sight and goes inside the triangular foregrip into the upper reciever.
@GsxRaider full autos are allowed to be owned in America by civilians by getting a class 3 license
@villageguitar4 there were more than just the "3 prong" flash hiders used on the m16a1's in Vietnam. there was also the "birdcage" which came in the late 60's as shown on this gun.
@cadetprivate95 there were a1's with fencing around the mag release
there are 3 things that give it away. NO gas tube. bolt is to light. Spring is to weak. it should SLAM shut hard. its a damn good replica, but its not real.
In a world full of tricked out cool AR 15's with all kinds of tacti-cool attachments e.g. lasers, lights, scopes, EOTechs, fore grips, rails, Readimags.......... There is still something extremely sexy about the old Plain Jane M16....you know shes good for it and shes just nice and simple without lifes dramas.
@ginjaninja1988 I HAVE to STRONGLY AGREE!!! LOL the Plain Jane M16 is like a naturally beautiful woman who is simple yet is strong, tone in detail, and easy to us. whereas the tac-out ar-15 are like female with loads of make up to make themselves look sexy, they are 'heavy' when being around with it, they are a drag, and they are high maintenance in accessories. HAHA!
My local gun shop has an A1 for around 600 bucks, is it worth it? I am looking for a good plinker and basic target shooting, i also am looking for a good camping rifle...whats your opinion on this rifle??
@killa9599 whoa?!? 600! that's a steal!!! grab it. i got the whole package for 800. you're saving! i really like old school rifle, it has more history with it. as for good plinker, i would say..... change the bolt system with a .22lr conversion kit, i think that'll be great for plinking.
@killa9599 its allright as a plinker i use my ar for hunting but you can buy cheap non corrosive ammo in bulk for around 120dollars for 500rounds and if it is a m16a1 thats an even bigger plus since more people are buying the older a1s for there historical value and to me i think they are awsome but i would buy one if i had the proper money but i have my m4 and i am very satisfied by it my ar15 has killed from hogs to deer and coyotes also some snakes very good gun for your money
@flyboyreloaded the one used i nam is just as good i would say get that one because the bullet shatters inside target with a 20 inch barrel like on the a1 which causes more damage so i say get the a1 especially if it is 600 bucks hell i might have to buy it
this is the m16 A2, the A1 is has the charging handle under the cary handle which looks like a trigger which is pulled back to the rear of the carry handle. the carry handle is also fuxed on the A1
M16A1 is a beautiful rifle, along with it's older XM16E1, but I'll have to go with the XM16E1, since Medina and William "Fuck" Calley presented it in their fucking dumbass massacred in 'Nam.
@kutila Indeed, if we make other few thoughts and considerations, what the fuck does Charlies do best? Dig the shit out f the ground! So yes consider that maybe they pretended to look like civvies, by daylight they work on the fields, but by night, they came slit our boys' throat with AK & bayonet.
@edwinmichaelquiboloy LUCKY YOU! you have full autos! The US idiot politicians doesn't allow full auto, especially in the state of Commiefornia (California).
@kutila The case of the North Hollywood shootout remains the justice departments to be aware of whether Class III should be sale widely. But a semi-auto rifle is fine for them, right?
must read this. once u have started there is no turning back.a little 10 yr old girl was raped and murderded in 1945. her body was not found until 1947. then a boy last week read this and did not copy and paste this message. the dead girl appeared in his room haunting him and killed him.if you do not copy and paste this onto 10 vidoes in 30 min the dead girl will apear in your room tonight and haunt you and kill you. well you better start to copy and paste to be saved
That isnt an m16 a1. the a1's did not hav a forwartd blot assist well atleast the first m16 a1's didnt have a forward blot assist. they had to redesign the m16 because the soldiers were saying that the gun jammed to much, and sometimes when a new magazine was put into the gun and the bolt was relased, the bolt wouldnt go forward the whole way.
@troybran ok.... you must be mistaken for the Vietnam Ar-15, that one doesn't have a forward assist along with not having the 3 prong, the M16A1 DID have forward assist and the birdcage flash hider.
@pvtbrowning did i say anything about the 240b or anything?.. that guy said.. "get some".. and i said you only say that when you fire the m60.. gezz read the comments before making a stupid one
the Bushmaster AR-15 I have (XM15-E2S 20'' barrel) was based on the M16A2 when I had left the store with it, the only change I made was switching the round A2 handguards that came with it with triangular A1 handguards I bought at a gun show
@Judokkaa Its less than $900 i have to say. look up m16a1 part kts and they are selling everything except the lower for at lease $500. get the lower from any brand and you're set. most of the parts are colt manufacture. so yea. =]
No. it isn't. It's cool trought, but it the M16A1 doesn't work in the field. It's jammed very especially.A2,A3,A4, are alot better, but the A1 is my favorite i love the 20 rd clip. Old legend.
@mugofdoom ya the reason the first a1s into Vietnam weren't reliable because proper cleaning kits and training of maintaining the weapon were not given
That's true but not for the A1, the A1 was issued with cleaning kits and the soldiers were properly trained. It's Colt 601 and 602 and very early 603s (XM16E1s) that weren't issued with cleaning kits and whatnot.
There was also problems with the barrels and ammunition that was used in those models, this was also fixed by the time the XM16E1 and M16A1 were adopted.
that's what i meant, i didn't know the proper name but i meant the early m16 into Vietnam the ones that didn't have a forward assist and had a three prong flash hider
@TonyFirelli Its less than $900 i have to say. look up m16a1 part kts and they are selling everything except the lower for at lease $500. get the lower from any brand and you're set. most of the parts are colt manufacture. so yea. =]
@mugofdoom true, the system is rather the same, just cosmetic appearance is different. if you didn't know, the a1 has a thinner barrel, causing it to overheat rather faster than the thick a2,a3,a4 barrel.
Is it just me or is the ejection port bigger width wise? I can see the gas key of the carrier looking through the top part of the port when he turns it sideways. If this is true, I guess it would be easier to see why they had more issues with debris fouling in the weapon than they do in the A2 - A4 series.
@TheBelva85 Yes the A2 has a heavier barrel, and yes the A4 has slightly stronger materials, but these changes really don't make that big of a difference. The A2 may be slightly more accurate and the barrel won't heat up as bad, and you may not be able to break the A4 as easily, but if you compare the A1, A2 and A4 in a reliability test you'll get roughly the same amount of stoppages per 1000 rounds. Also stronger materials mean jack shit to reliability unless you're running dynamite through it.
@TheBelva85 If you want to go flaunt your intellectual dick around then how about you tell me these "books" are and also tell me how the fuck making a slightly heavier lower receiver and a slightly heavier barrel does anything but fuck all? Take note that I also own one of these fucking guns. Now go.
@mugofdoom Measurements of the direct impingement system were changed, different materials mean different surfaces and different reliability. Don't cuss. You're a monkey.
@TheBelva85 You called me a smartass amongst other things, hypocrite. And I asked how, not what, you're just listing more minor changes in the design and not telling me what they do exactly.
Anyway if the direct impingement system has changed values an materials, we're talking about the heart of the system, and boy if it changes things. see ya.
@mugofdoom It was because they sent it without gun clean kits and swithch the powder and that messed it up. But with proper matince the M16 is a good gun.
@sasukefan012345 Not poor maintaining, no maintaining what-so-ever, some soldiers never cleaned it once. Couple that with incorrect powder for the rifle that burned too hot and left behind too much grit, little, to no training on that rifle and non-chrome lined barrels and you have one hell of a shitstorm on your hands.
It wasn't a bad rifle, it still isn't, it just had a rough start in the US Army. All of these problems were ironed out at the adoption of the XM16E1 though.
@mugofdoom Yes there are differences; cartridge's powder they used during the vietnam war, barrel was thin and used a difference type of metal that rusted up, Magazine was not as good at today's magazine. why look up the history when you should be looking at the material was used and compare it to today's a2, a3, a4.
haha im kidding, the older ones are called AR-15. The AR-15 has no forward assist, and the muzzle flasher is the 3 prong, or in other words called duck bills. AR-15 came into service around the '62 or '63. this particular model came into service in the 68s.
Hey, got a question. I'm a Canadian, and I really love all Ar-15 like rifles. I know I can get an AR-15 with the right license, but do you know if they sell m16-a1 type rifles?
Even it is fake it still awesome I've always wanted an M16A1

@kutila that bolt carrier looks loose in the upper reciever how do we know it is a real firearm, maybe its airsoft
mujahedeen1987 1 year ago
@mugofdoom true, the system is rather the same, just cosmetic appearance is different. if you didn't know, the a1 has a thinner barrel, causing it to overheat rather faster than the thick a2,a3,a4 barrel.
kutila 1 year ago
Is it just me or is the ejection port bigger width wise? I can see the gas key of the carrier looking through the top part of the port when he turns it sideways. If this is true, I guess it would be easier to see why they had more issues with debris fouling in the weapon than they do in the A2 - A4 series.

@kutila why is the ejection port so wide i can see the gas tube ontop of the bolt carrier. is this airsoft?
mujahedeen1987 1 year ago
@kutila This one sure looks and sounds like a fucking toy to me friend.

@mugofdoom No way smartass, a2 is HB and A4 is made with more reliable materials and different internal parts measures .
TheBelva85 1 year ago
@TheBelva85 Yes the A2 has a heavier barrel, and yes the A4 has slightly stronger materials, but these changes really don't make that big of a difference. The A2 may be slightly more accurate and the barrel won't heat up as bad, and you may not be able to break the A4 as easily, but if you compare the A1, A2 and A4 in a reliability test you'll get roughly the same amount of stoppages per 1000 rounds. Also stronger materials mean jack shit to reliability unless you're running dynamite through it.

@TheBelva85 If you want to go flaunt your intellectual dick around then how about you tell me these "books" are and also tell me how the fuck making a slightly heavier lower receiver and a slightly heavier barrel does anything but fuck all? Take note that I also own one of these fucking guns. Now go.

@mugofdoom Measurements of the direct impingement system were changed, different materials mean different surfaces and different reliability. Don't cuss. You're a monkey.
TheBelva85 1 year ago
@TheBelva85 You called me a smartass amongst other things, hypocrite. And I asked how, not what, you're just listing more minor changes in the design and not telling me what they do exactly.
mugofdoom 1 year ago
@mugofdoom Smartass ain't a cussword.
Anyway if the direct impingement system has changed values an materials, we're talking about the heart of the system, and boy if it changes things. see ya.

@mugofdoom well, the butt stocks in the a2 a3 and a4 were changed and the rifling, but that was about it :)

@mugofdoom It was because they sent it without gun clean kits and swithch the powder and that messed it up. But with proper matince the M16 is a good gun.
scoterlucyaredogs 1 year ago
@mugofdoom yeah! it jammed due to poor maintaining in vietnam!!and mud,dirt,grass and blood are not good for a gun!!
sasukefan012345 1 year ago
@sasukefan012345 Not poor maintaining, no maintaining what-so-ever, some soldiers never cleaned it once. Couple that with incorrect powder for the rifle that burned too hot and left behind too much grit, little, to no training on that rifle and non-chrome lined barrels and you have one hell of a shitstorm on your hands.
It wasn't a bad rifle, it still isn't, it just had a rough start in the US Army. All of these problems were ironed out at the adoption of the XM16E1 though.
mugofdoom 1 year ago
@mugofdoom Yes there are differences; cartridge's powder they used during the vietnam war, barrel was thin and used a difference type of metal that rusted up, Magazine was not as good at today's magazine. why look up the history when you should be looking at the material was used and compare it to today's a2, a3, a4.

@kutila I wasn't saying there weren't differences, I was saying the differences were minute at best.
Also you cited a difference between the cartridges used, which has nothing to do with the design of the rifle itself.
mugofdoom 7 months ago
How does it shoot?Very accurate? Or average combat accuracy (just able to hit torso sized targets at 300 yards)
TheBelva85 2 years ago
It's an M16, of course it's very accurate.

TonyFirelli 2 years ago
We are allowed to own full automatic weapons, and it appears to have the full automatic sear pin, so my guess is it's select fire.

zomgbbqwth 2 years ago
really?!? O_o
haha im kidding, the older ones are called AR-15. The AR-15 has no forward assist, and the muzzle flasher is the 3 prong, or in other words called duck bills. AR-15 came into service around the '62 or '63. this particular model came into service in the 68s.

Hey, got a question. I'm a Canadian, and I really love all Ar-15 like rifles. I know I can get an AR-15 with the right license, but do you know if they sell m16-a1 type rifles?
