    Thats with the two 4lb lead bars in it though right?

    How do you like you WOA I have been thinking about ordering an A4 upper but can't get them to answer or call me back. Concerned with all the craziness it may not happen now. :sad20:

    Just one 3-3/4 pounder in the buttstock but the Satern match barrel is basically a bull under the float tube/handguards.

    Mine's WOP not a WOA but the difference is minor. I like it a lot but am reserving it for full course matches. WOP's have slightly better barrels, pinned rear sights and tighter rear sight tolerances. Same place makes both but the WOP has a lot more handwork in it.

    Most authentic you'll probably get right now is to get a Colt M16A2 upper from autoweapons for $895 http://autoweapons.com/photos/accys/colt.html and slap it on a lower you put together. Seriously, it's VERY easy to put a lower together. While the Colt upper isn't cheap by any means, given the "panic" going on, the price is not that unreasonable and it's the real deal.

    Colt RO901? That is/was the M16A4 upper. That's what I used when I build my clone. I bought it from Dennis A. Todd. It was a cool/fun clone, but it was a pig. I sold it and ended up with the MOS A2 upper from BCM.

    FN upper. FN built some m16a4 uppers. I assume its the same thing i should say. The research i did said a few were leaked but no official sales to the civvy world bc of the gov contract. It is a colt carry handle though.
    If i could have had a bcm upper, i would have easy done that. Hopefully ill be just as happy with this. It does have a bcm bcg.
