Agreed - I hate M4 barrels.

Are you serious? I'm guessing that he actually uses it.

Gorgeous AKs, guys.

Nice CAR-15 (XM177E2) there, Tef.

Yes, unfortunately Weasel, that's an A2 body.

One question: what was he thinking?

Guys, their website says in plain English that the camo jobs are SIMULATED onto the weapons. The key word there being SIMULATED; I doubt any of us actually thought otherwise. I was merely commenting on the patterns.

HyperStealth simply looks incredible. So, it's apparently a "vinyl wrap" which is basically a super-adhearing sticker?

They're pretty damn hard to beat for the price. I've got MAG 120-rounders and I ended up putting a strip of OD duct tape around the upper half just under the mag release "notch" so they'll stay seated in the receiver. No problems so far.

That looks to me like an M16A3 with an M4 stock, no? I always liked that look.

Your lips move, but I can't hear what you say.

I think it's time you had a little lesson in the subject of CAR-15s. In 1965, Colt produced a carbine version of the M16 and called it the CAR-15. Since Colt called it this, CAR-15 was the factory designation, not a government designation. The little bugger was made strictly for US Special Forces in Vietnam; it was nothing more than an M16 with a 10" barrel instead of a 20" barrel and a 3" shorter stock (which telescoped). However, once in the jungles, it was learned through tough lessons that the Colt CAR-15 was extremely loud, had bad recoil and had a horrible muzzle flash. All thes

Great write-up, but as HaVoC mentioned, the photos are quite small and somewhat hard to see the details.

Alark, the CAR-15 flash supressor looks good on that rig.

Actually, in the jungles of Southeast Asia, all generations of the CAR-15 (XM177E1 and XM177E2) were called CAR-15s. I really wasn't going for the Vietnam era, but more of the Battlefield 1942 mod Desert Combat look. Yes, it is indeed full metal with real steel foregrips.
