$1700 his is a copy of the XM177 5.56 carbine as used by Special Forces in Vietnam, built by myself. I am a retired 18A (Special Forces Officer) and former Detachment Commander of ODA 075. You can bet your life on this gun. You can see a video of me shooting this gun with several types of mixed ammunition here: You can see the 1.5 moa accuracy test of this gun here:
This gun uses an original Vietnam era Colt upper receiver, Colt bolt and Colt charging handle. The upper receiver has been left in its original battle worn state. The rest of the gun has been Cerakoted in a proprietary "Battleworn" finish of mine using Cerakote Gray, Stainless, and Graphite Black. The 16.75" Brownells chrome lined barrel has an XM177 flash hider with grenade ring pinned and welded. You can see in the pics the weld before finishing and is invisible after Cerakoting. The lower is by Armalite and has an original Vietnam era M16a1 grip. The trigger has been tuned with match springs to break at a crisp 5 pounds. The buttstock is an accurate metal...not plastic...copy of the original XM177 collapsible stock. This gun comes with two metal magazines...an original Vietnam era Colt 30 round magazine and an aftermarket 20 round magazine. I have included a reprint of the PS magazine from Vietnam covering the M16a1 operation and maintenance. There is also info on the XM177 in the issue. A cleaning kit and carrying strap is also included. I guarantee this rifle 100% and you can return it for a full refund, less shipping, for any reason. I have never had a rifle returned...see my feedback. $1700 shipped to your ffl.
