masakarijoe Posted January 6, 2008 Report Share Posted January 6, 2008 (edited) didnt you see it in the USMC thread? but yeah, mine currently is mounted fine, i get enough eye relief; although i may need the buis elsewhere soon, so i may take it off later anyway. my acog is the 4X version. i would love a QD base, but yeah they are expensive! im ok with the thumbscrews -joe Edited January 6, 2008 by masakarijoe Link to post Share on other sites
chillindrdude Posted January 6, 2008 Report Share Posted January 6, 2008 if price were no object, i think a ACOG scope with a Larue QD base and a ARMS or Matech BUIS would look pretty cool Link to post Share on other sites
Sgt-McKenzie Posted January 6, 2008 Report Share Posted January 6, 2008 For a realistic Infantry USMC grunt M16A4 (I think it's the aim here because of the Marpat cover helmet) there should be no BUIS. BUIS is very rare. I have seen only one M16A4 with BUIS if the ACOG is used. M4 users may have BUIS but still rare. Of course, using a BUIS wouldn't make it unrealistic because there are probably many users among troups but still, you would have a gun that is special and uncommon. Â There's still no real purpose to that other than to be tacti-'cool' which asserts no emphasis with me I like that one. Hourah ! Link to post Share on other sites
MERCILESSPIT Posted January 6, 2008 Report Share Posted January 6, 2008 I haven't been in the USMC thread recently Joe. I need to hop over and check it out. Â That'd be a sweet set up for sure chillindrdude. Â Â I got pics of my 16 with the black stock coming up later today. It definitely looks a lot better. Link to post Share on other sites
masakarijoe Posted January 6, 2008 Report Share Posted January 6, 2008 (edited) well, consider my buis as an enigma. purchased and added on by the operator, me. i like it there for now. chillindrdude, that would be nice, but $$$! mercilesspit, yea, your m16 looks great, cant wait for the pic with the new stock... the old one was atrocious. i love what you did with the ras... nothing! sometime soon hopefully ill have a backup m16, and do a similar setup. a long time ago, when i first saw your sig, i wanted to do that off-mounted aimpoint thing... looks great, and i dont like aimpoints very much -Joe Edited January 6, 2008 by masakarijoe Link to post Share on other sites
Sgt-McKenzie Posted January 6, 2008 Report Share Posted January 6, 2008 Nothing on the forearm is indeed beautiful (as a weapon can be). My preferred rifle is the Colt M-16A2 with just a 2pts sling. Link to post Share on other sites
MERCILESSPIT Posted January 6, 2008 Report Share Posted January 6, 2008 That's my next project Sgt., I have to have a replica of the rifle from my service era or be damned. Link to post Share on other sites
Sgt-McKenzie Posted January 6, 2008 Report Share Posted January 6, 2008 As there are connoisseurs let me entertain you with this picture (click for high res). Collection belongs to a friend and to me. AR15, M16A1 x 2 (G&P/Marushin), M16A2, Colt M16A3 (!) and M16A4 x 2 Link to post Share on other sites
masakarijoe Posted January 6, 2008 Report Share Posted January 6, 2008 thats my new background on my psp wow, what a collection. wow. wow. nothing there like mine there though! i never see airsoft m16a4s with m203s and a m5 ras... -Joe Link to post Share on other sites
Sgt-McKenzie Posted January 6, 2008 Report Share Posted January 6, 2008 I own the A1/M203 and once I attached the GL on my A4 but I found it was too heavy and it's not funny to remove and attach it every time. I prefer the way the A4 looks without it and I prefer the A1 with the GL. On the RAS I just have the handle, the PEQ2 and the PRR PTT. Link to post Share on other sites
masakarijoe Posted January 6, 2008 Report Share Posted January 6, 2008 well, they all look great. very realistic looking. are they all metal bodied? that A1 second from the left looks like my bootcamp rifle... ours were held together with tape we had compensators flying off, pins breaking, and handguards shattering i miss those rifles... -Joe Link to post Share on other sites
MERCILESSPIT Posted January 6, 2008 Report Share Posted January 6, 2008 That's one simply wicked pic Sgt. Â Final 8 pics, the gun is finally finished. (Click 1600px): Â Link to post Share on other sites
Flakdragon Posted January 6, 2008 Report Share Posted January 6, 2008 Dunno, It think we still need a PEQ and vertical grip. Hurhur, just kidding man, looks great finished. It's simple yet made to look like it'd fit in with today's raped armalites. Nice job. Link to post Share on other sites
The Crunchy Bunny Posted January 6, 2008 Report Share Posted January 6, 2008 Looks really nice. An AN/PEQ2 and maybe a big surefire would suit it nicly. Link to post Share on other sites
Sgt-McKenzie Posted January 6, 2008 Report Share Posted January 6, 2008 Still nice M16A4. I have the very same next to me. A great rifle. There is nothing like 20" IMHO. Your photos would look better with a Humvee though  My picture : All metal, 99% G&P and real furniture for the A1. The second M16 (the black one) is the Marushin cap fire reproduction. I don't know why Marushin chose such a dark black paint. My buddy artificially aged it with sand paper. It's a great rifle. He uses it for Vietnam reenactment in France. Thks for the comments. If you have questions, please use PM.  Link to post Share on other sites
Sarge133 Posted January 6, 2008 Report Share Posted January 6, 2008 My very basic M16. The only thing not stock in it is the Area 1000 tappet plate. I plan to get a madbull inner barrel and a guarder or systema hopup rubber. Other than that, this is how it will look. I like plain jane M16s better than ones with all the rails and scopes.

reaper16 Posted January 6, 2008 Report Share Posted January 6, 2008 Promethues bucking is better IMO Your gonna want to put a KA hop system in too, cuase its stock unit sucks. need to replace min just dont have the funds currently. Link to post Share on other sites
Cam Keo SOC16 Posted January 6, 2008 Report Share Posted January 6, 2008 Agreed. Â Prometheus is the way to go, I'd get a Prometheus Bucking, AND Prometheus Tightbore. Link to post Share on other sites

Black Knight Posted January 7, 2008 Report Share Posted January 7, 2008 Finally got my fourth(M16A2) and fifth(CQB-R/LaRue-upper) PTW's. Oh well, the lower reciever of the fifth one was actually saved as spare parts and not assembled, but still.. Two other uppers(M16A4 w/ ACOG and the standard M4) are assembled from separately purchased parts. Â Â Â All rail systems are RS. All optics, except the scope on the SIR M16, are RS.
