Email JSE and see when they will have more 20 inch lightweight barrels in stock. They offer them in 1-7 and 1-9. I bought a couple of the 1-7 and they shoot 69gr well.So we have the numrich parts kit in and are ready to slap it together when we get a barrel. Now we are trying to source a barrel. After talking with him more about the intended use of the rifle we agreed that a 1-8 or similar twist barrel would serve him better than the 1-12 twist barrel that came with it. We are not stuck on 1-8. Just want to be able to shoot 75gr hunting bullets for our tiny whitetail deer. Do you guys have a recommendation on a barrel that matches the contour and appearance but has a faster twist rate that will allow it it stabilize heavier projectiles? He is also wanting a period accurate bayonet if you guys have a lead on one of those?
It is definitely a nostalgia thing. He has An m4 already. Wants a rifle similar to the one he carried in Vietnam.Sorry for the derail, 'n not criticizing anyone's taste, but why the love for retros & clones?
I was was issued an M16A1 in the late '80's & an A2 in the mid '90's. Shot Service Rifle matches on our Battalion rifle team with an A2. Never liked either of them with what is possible with current ARs, I'm not gonna handicap myself with a GI style A1 or A2.
If it's a nostalgia thing, that's cool. Not hatin' on 'em, just not for me.

I am not sure it came as part of this kitSo, he has a retro phone too?
Nice build..is that the right flash supressor?
The A1 had the closed flash suppressor. The XM16E1 originally had the pictured flash suppressor but the rifles were later upgraded to the closed flash suppressor. The open suppressor was just right for breaking the bands on C ration cases.So, he has a retro phone too?
