Recreate an American Classic with the Brownells M16A1 Handguard Set, built to accurately replicate the original handguards issued to thousands of American servicemen & women. This Handguard Set is modeled directly off of original handguards, which are becoming increasingly difficult to find, or in decent condition. Left and Right Handguard halves include aluminum heatshields, protecting your hand and the handguards from barrel heat. Combine the Handguard Set with the matching Pistol Grip & Buttstock Assembly from Brownells, and you have a new condition furniture set for your AR-15, M16, M16A1 or other early model rifle. Handguards include instructions and heatshields. Available in several different colors including: Black - Proper for Model 602, XM16E1, M16A1 & later generation rifles introduced after 1963 Green - Proper for early Model 601 rifles, the first AR-15 adopted by the US Air Force in 1959 Brown - Similar to the earliest AR-15 Prototype rifle furniture used in the late 1950s Retro furniture from Brownells is not an exact copy of original components or their construction. Some areas have been changed due to manufacturing methods or to avoid counterfeit concerns.
