The BRN16A2 features the correct components you're seeking in a M16A2 build.
The forged upper receiver itself is the classic M16A2 style, with the robust and incredibly adjustable A2 rear sight assembly. The elevation drum can be adjusted from 300 to 800 meters (zero at 25m for 300m). This upper receiver does not have M4 feed ramps, just like the original A2. The included bolt carrier group has a phosphate finish with chrome bore and gas key interior.
With the classic 20 inch Government profile 5.56x45mm NATO barrel, the BRN-16A2 has an instantly recognizable appearance. The 20 inch barrel has a chrome bore and chamber, with 1-7 twist, perfect for M855 62 grain or heavier bullets. The muzzle is capped by the great performing M16A2 flash hider.
The non-“F” Marked front sight base has the correct A2 square post, bayonet lug, sling swivel and triangle handguard cap. USGI barrel nut will accept many off the shelf handguards, making the upper future proof for upgrades. The included M16A2 style handguards feature the standard heat shield and replicate the look and feel of the original A2 handguards.

We actually tracked down the original company that manufactured the Colt® AR-15 optics of the 1970s and asked them to build a new one for us as close to the original as possible - right down the yellow inspection stickers. The Retro 4x Optic has updated technology under the hood, with modern lenses and construction. The result is a scope that looks just like the original but has optical clarity and performance that are head and shoulders above it.
• Attaches to any standard AR-15/M16 carry handle
• Fully Multicoated lenses are fog and waterproof
• BDC click-adjustable elevation turret
• Manufactured in Japan with high quality internals and lenses
• The Retro 4x Carry Handle Optic sports a simple, intuitive fine duplex reticle, like the original, and an elevation turret with BDC (ballistic drop compensated) clicks that closely match modern .223/5.56 55gr and 62gr ammo. As its name indicates, the Retro 4x comes with an integral carry handle mount that easily attaches to most AR-15 carry handles - no tools required.
As with all products we sell, this scope is fully backed by our Forever Guarantee.
