Chrissyg Posted January 10, 2007 Report Share Posted January 10, 2007 (edited) Hey all, I know its starting a new thread and all, and I might well be flamed but I felt these rare rifles didnt deserve any old Armalite thread, (feel free to move it if its not appropriate mods) but they deserved one of their own. I dont mind whether its pics of you using them, just your rifles, if they are TM or Classic Airsoft (Kokusai) lets just see them! Plus it gives us lucky owners a way to gloat to other forum members that we have these guns and show them off Here are pics of one of my two CAR-15's. Chrissy edit: Yes I do realise I have a rubber grip on the fore grip. Im in the process of removing it as I type. Edited January 10, 2007 by Chrissyg Link to post Share on other sites
screamin_weasel Posted January 10, 2007 Report Share Posted January 10, 2007 lol as if you started this thread - you're sooo gonna get beasted for it. but i'll join in anyways lol. like you say, gloating wins. whenever i see a pic of a CAR-15, theres numerous comments of "you lucky ######" or "wish i had one". mine are old photos though. not that it looks any different now. one has a G&P metal body, and one is ALL ORIGINAL metal bodied one. EDIT: Had to get rid of one of these pictures, bit offensive to certain people. -Gene Link to post Share on other sites

HannibalSmith77 Posted June 11, 2007 Report Share Posted June 11, 2007 Thread Revival! I have recently joined the elite ownership of an actual CAR15. Now the next question is...can you get a replacement metal body without switching the front end over? The top one is Ledpocket's CAR 14.75...you know, not quite a CAR15! Just the TM Link to post Share on other sites
Guinness Posted November 27, 2007 Report Share Posted November 27, 2007 Thread revival ...revival! Yes sir, the metal body for the TM CAR15, which should have been correctly called the model 607, is made by Hurricane. I am buying one as a Christmas present to myself. Now for the pictures! and one last one with her G&P brothers Slainte! Link to post Share on other sites
mightyjebus Posted November 27, 2007 Report Share Posted November 27, 2007 Thought I would share mine. And now for something even rarier. the Tokyo Mauri Barnes (burns) M653 Full stock and fixed stock AEG. Link to post Share on other sites
Revenge Seeker Posted November 27, 2007 Report Share Posted November 27, 2007 (edited) Wow, mightyjebus, I've never been able to find any pics of the Burns M653 for a while now. I know absolutely no one that has one. Thanks for posting. Edited November 27, 2007 by Revenge Seeker Link to post Share on other sites
Guinness Posted November 27, 2007 Report Share Posted November 27, 2007 Yes cheers MJ for that! I have been threatening to get one of the G&P 655's, I'd love to have an original TM though! You are truly a collector's collector. Slainte! Link to post Share on other sites
Sgt-McKenzie Posted November 27, 2007 Report Share Posted November 27, 2007 In the Saint Armalite users world, the word "CAR15" is used to describe a "Carbine AR15", ie a shorty AR15 (CAR15, XM-177, M653, 655,....). Can we post pictures of XM as well? Link to post Share on other sites
Ledpocket Posted November 27, 2007 Report Share Posted November 27, 2007 My short history of car-15 ownage. Oct '05 got a used car-15 that had an A2 metal body (sold it) In '06 I made the car-14.75 (sold) Late '06/early '07 I made an xm-607 mod to a CA M16vn (bottom gun) and purchased another TM car-15 (sold) Mid/late '07 made an xm-607 out of a G&P m16vn Link to post Share on other sites
Guinness Posted November 27, 2007 Report Share Posted November 27, 2007 (edited) Excellent pics Ledpocket! In the Saint Armalite users world, the word "CAR15" is used to describe a "Carbine AR15", ie a shorty AR15 (CAR15, XM-177, M653, 655,....). Can we post pictures of XM as well? I agree with ya Sgt, but I believe this thread is pretty focused on the TM CAR-15, or even rarer, the Kokusai edition. This is just my opinion and I got in trouble just today with my fellow members for pointing this kind of thing out, But we already have an Armalite thread- IMHO we do ourselves a disservice by posting redundant images all over the picture section. ...but hey, I'm not a mod Slainte!

mightyjebus Posted November 27, 2007 Report Share Posted November 27, 2007 funnily enough i have just been working with some nigerians who all have the RS M655 as their personnel weapon. Yes cheers MJ for that! I have been threatening to get one of the G&P 655's, I'd love to have an original TM though! You are truly a collector's collector. Slainte! Link to post Share on other sites
Guinness Posted November 27, 2007 Report Share Posted November 27, 2007 Really? thats cool! I always like the Sgt Barnes / Shorty A1 even though technically it wasn't available during the war, just happened to be what they had in the Philippines during the filming of 'Platoon' What....did they offer it to you in trade for helping them release millions from their bank?
