The M16A2 was adopted by the US Marines in 1983 with the United States Army following suit in 1986, seeing use in Operation Desert Shield & Operation Desert Storm. The VFC Colt M16A2 GBB Airsoft Rifle is fully licensed by Colt and Cybergun, again adding to their collection of excellent replica Cold War period weaponry. Exceptional construction quality, feeling solid in hand with dense polymer used for the handguard, pistol grip & fixed stock with high grade metals for the receiver, barrel & magazine. Bird cage style flash hider, A2 style iron sights with front & rear sling loops. Period correct, early styled deep engraved Colt markings on the receiver as well as on the bottom of the 30-round gas magazine that it comes with. This gun actually fires in 3 round burst instead of full auto which is accurate to the real steel M16A2. Uses the tried and tested VFC V3 M4 / AR 15 gas system with the updated valve knocker system and zinc bolt carrier. Polymer handguard and pistol grip that offers an excellent contoured grip. The magazine holds 30 BBs and is a heavy, full metal construction complete with markings & plastic feed lips. Features bolt stop function & dry fire mode. Magazines compatible with standard VFC M4 / AR-15 Series V3 Gas System. On standard 135PSI green gas, the rifle kicks incredibly hard, notably more than the Marui GBBR series, adding to the shooting experience. Adjustable hop is located by popping off the bottom panel of the polymer handguard, safely out of the way to avoid accidental adjustment. Selectable safe, semi and fully automatic fire modes.
