super64 Posted December 5, 2017 Report Share Posted December 5, 2017 I’m looking to change the look of my WE M16A3 to the A4 style and I’m trying to find a rail. I’ve seen Dboys do an M5 RAS which I’m thinking of getting because I’m not keen to spend £200 plus on a genuine KAC rail. Has anyone carried out the same conversion and know if the Dboys will fit the WE or if there is another, not massively expensive rail I can use? Link to post Share on other sites
Brigg Posted December 5, 2017 Report Share Posted December 5, 2017 Are you looking for a specific setup? Because standard m16a3s and A4s look basically identical other then one saying auto and the other saying burst. Link to post Share on other sites
super64 Posted December 5, 2017 Author Report Share Posted December 5, 2017 Yes mate, I’m looking to build something as close as possible to a USMC M16A4 in GBB to go alongside my M27. At the moment I’ve got a G&P M203 attached to my M16 with the heat shield hand guard. It’s a little bit of a bodge job, but it looks good and works well, although I’m thinking of a change. The gun is for display purposes so I want to get it looking as close to the real thing as possible, but on a budget. Link to post Share on other sites
DarkLite Posted December 6, 2017 Report Share Posted December 6, 2017 The DBOYs M5 rail should fit, as it's designed to fit the standard A2 style delta ring and M16 handguard cap. Link to post Share on other sites
super64 Posted December 6, 2017 Author Report Share Posted December 6, 2017 Excellent, thanks DarkLite. I think that’s going to be my next purchase. Link to post Share on other sites
Bando Posted December 6, 2017 Report Share Posted December 6, 2017 just an FYI the CA m16 railed does NOT fit, many hours of fileing and dremmeling and it still doesnt. Link to post Share on other sites
super64 Posted December 6, 2017 Author Report Share Posted December 6, 2017 Ouch, I feel your pain Bando. I think most of us have been there, trying to get something or other to fit onto or into a gun only to realise after way to much effort that it’s not going to work. Hopefully the Dboys will be an easier fit. Link to post Share on other sites
stryker20000 Posted December 20, 2017 Report Share Posted December 20, 2017 NCSTAR has a set of rails that should fit. Got two of them. Just might need a triangle front guard thing ( can’t remember the technical name). The latest one I got needed it still. Link to post Share on other sites
