Sgt-McKenzie Posted December 24, 2007 Report Share Posted December 24, 2007 Thanks for the comments. I own the M16 with the killflash and a friend owns the other one. Both airsoft and almost identical. The inner parts are completely different though. We use them for our modern USMC loadouts. We are infantry wanabees, so, our M16 should be identical for realism. All the M16A4 used by the USMC are from FN USA. Differences : - killflash - paracorde on the VFC PEQ2 - PRR wireless PTT - charging handle (SPR gas buster type on mine) Link to post Share on other sites
hendrix Posted December 24, 2007 Report Share Posted December 24, 2007 i really like the finish on the m16a4's mckenzie they look much more realistic with the grayish finish as opposed to black. on a side note not all m16a4's are from FN, many are still from colt. Link to post Share on other sites
masakarijoe Posted December 24, 2007 Report Share Posted December 24, 2007 ive personally held a few colt ones, so yes, we still use colt m16a4s. but wow, i want one of those... im still trying to make mine! mines a colt m16a3 mws/m203 -Joe Link to post Share on other sites
reaper16 Posted December 24, 2007 Report Share Posted December 24, 2007 I ont think the killflashed ACOG is a real one, cuase shoudlnt it have the white writing on the side? or is that just the NSN? I wonder if the rifle is not real as it has wearing in parts imilar to real steel. I also wonder what that green boc x on the rai system is. Link to post Share on other sites

Sgt-McKenzie Posted December 24, 2007 Report Share Posted December 24, 2007 (edited) USMC has bought all their M16A4 from FN USA though. At least that's what NAVY budget papers say since 2003 up to 2008. M16A2, M4 and M4A1 are all from Colt. Maybe there are some mixed up parts in the armory as they are compatible. If you can take a picture of a Colt M16A4 in the hand of a real Marine I would love to see that. Not that I don't believe you, but for my pleasure, as a USMC fanatic. Note that real FN M16 can have very dark purple color sometimes. (Out of topic : The green box is a wireless PTT for my PRR/Marconi radio. You press, it send signal of the voice. It's like pressing on the radio. There is no lag, 10 years battery life. It can be programmed for another radio with a simple process. More pictures of the PTT for the ones interested - I made a review, in french) Edited December 24, 2007 by Sgt-McKenzie Link to post Share on other sites
masakarijoe Posted December 24, 2007 Report Share Posted December 24, 2007 that purple color is from a mix of what fn uses to make the rifles, and cleaning solvents. usmc also uses FN M16A2s, and often they are purple. as far as colt A4s, ive seen colt A4s, and colt A2s with A4 uppers -Joe Link to post Share on other sites

k30dxedle Posted December 28, 2007 Report Share Posted December 28, 2007 (edited) Am I blind or something? Everyone's going OMG AHHHHH UGLY STAR SCAR. And apparently I'm the only one sitting behind my screen going ¿lolqué? It has a gen.2 cheekpiece and an EGLM. And the color, thank God, is not 5% as glossy as STAR's photographers made it. Do the cheekpiece, Colt-type magazine, and a slightly browner FDE seriously make the difference between OMG SEX VFC <3 and OMG PUKE STAR? Please enlighten me. Edit: oh wow, this came off as a flame. It's not supposed to be. I'm just confused as a word I can't really say here. Edited December 28, 2007 by k30dxedle Link to post Share on other sites
[BS]_MARS Posted December 28, 2007 Report Share Posted December 28, 2007 Do the cheekpiece, Colt-type magazine, and a slightly browner FDE seriously make the difference between OMG SEX VFC <3 and OMG PUKE STAR? Yes it does. Its also the flared mag well, trigger guard, stock attachment point and the general crappyness of Star guns. Link to post Share on other sites
Agent Hunk Posted December 28, 2007 Report Share Posted December 28, 2007 So if you don't own a Systema M4 your M4 is trash due to minor inconsistencies between the real one and other airsoft replicas? Or does it only apply to SCARs and the brand you currently own? Elitism, you rock. Link to post Share on other sites
