ASG/KWA M16 LMT Defender Patrol RIS

M16 production began in 60's. It was developed in response for the need of new infantry rifle that would replace old M1 and M2 constructions. Despite of many initial construction problems, sale of patent rights from Armalite (first M16 manufacturer) to Stoner / Colt and lack of trust from soldiers, M16 has become an icon of U.S. Army soldier equipment. In later period it lived to see many development versions and conversion. Finally, it was replaced by its descendant - M4 rifle. M16 is still being used in some American armed forces.

Classic 20" M16 RIS replica is a great basis for a first rifle for beginners as well as for building custom conversions for experienced users. Body has Lewis Machine & Tool Co. trademarks. Due to its length, it is not recommended for people who plan to spend most of their Airsoft time at CQB, albeit this flaw is made up with great accuracy (over half a meter inner barrel).
