Recreate an American Classic with the Brownells M16A1 Handguard Set. This set is built to accurately replicate the original handguards that were issued to thousands of American servicemen and women. The set is modelled directly off the original handguards which are becoming increasingly difficult to find, or in decent condition. Both the 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'll have a new condition furniture set for your AR-15, M16, M16A1 or other early model rifle. The Handguards include instructions and heatshields.

In addition, this Handguard set is 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; and brown, similar to the earliest AR-15 Prototype rifle furniture used in the late 1950s. Please note that 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.
