Gentlemen,
I've tried searching but as of yet I've found nothing. I'm buying a M16A1 parts kit that essentially comes with everything except the lower receiver, disconnector, and barrel.
My question is I've heard that the M16A1 barrel was thinner?.. or something to that effect? Will current production barrels fit? such as a BCM barrel?
Anything else I should be aware of?
Before anyone suggests a brand new production coltbushmasterBCMDPMS... just know that I have a certain fondness for the old M16A1 rifles.. I'll be completing it with a Nodak spud receiver. I'm essentially trying to get this as correct as possible barrel not withstanding.
