California Residents:

Until we have clarification on our requirements for AB1263 and SB704, we will only ship to your FFL. Any orders sent directly to you will be canceled. Asking sellers to keep records of the common-use items you’ve purchased, in our opinion, violates the spirit of the 2A. Nothing we sell should ever have to go to an FFL or require a form just because of the state you live in. For us, the requirement to store the form, order details, and your ID is an outrageous overreach.

    Product Description

    Here is one of our favorite custom builds. We decided to try and rebuild the old school C7 M-16A1. These are using a true .625 pencil barrel. The barrel is made from 41V50 steel and the barrel chamber/bore are chrome lined. We have also used a 20" A1 Bird cage flash hider on it. C7 Upper receiver is black finished. Handguards are our new reproduction.

    These do have M4 ramped barrels and receivers.

      Outstanding!

      I have been hunting for a lightweight 20” M16 upper with a case deflector for a while. I love this upper. Looks amazing and is shocking light for a full M16 build. This is a keeper!
