This is an excellent example of an original Colt Firearms production, fully transferable, fully automatic M16A1 rifle. These original Colt fully automatic M16 series rifles are very desirable as they were produced exactly as their military counterparts using the same military grade, factory original parts. They were given their own special serial number designation in the 9 million range. This example was produced as a Colt M16A1 series with the forward assist and the two position flip rear sight. The barrel is stamped: "C MP CHROME BORE", and it is fitted with the original birdcage style flash hider. The magazine well is marked "COLT/M16A1/CAL. 5.56 MM./9478014" and "COLT FIREARMS DIVISION/COLT INDUSTRIES/HARTFORD CONN./U.S.A." next to the three-position "SAFE/SEMI/AUTO" selector. It has its original Colt marked bolt and bolt carrier group. It is fitted with the original early style M16A1 triangular shaped plastic hand guards, pistol grip and buttstock with the storage compartment in the butt. It comes with one "Eagle/Arms" marked 30 round magazine and a black nylon sling.

Excellent with 98% plus of the original anodized/parkerized finish on the various parts. The plastic components are also all in excellent condition showing no handling marks. Mechanically excellent. NOTE: This weapon is a National Firearms Act (NFA), fully transferable Class 3, which is registered with the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, (BATFE) under the provisions of 18 U.S.C. Chapter 44 and 27 CFR part 478.
