When purchasing Brownells or any other brand from eGoods365.com store, you can be sure that (a) you are purchasing from US based company with the most responsive and friendly customer service; (b) an authentic, not a counterfeit and not a refurbished product.

Brownells offers a faithful reproduction of the M16A1 Buttstock Assembly. This iconic furniture set was issued to thousands of US service members. Finding original stocks in good condition has become increasingly difficult. The Brownells M16A1 Buttstock Assembly solves this issue and adds an authentic touch to your AR-15, M16, M16A1 or other early model rifle when combined with the Handguard Set and Pistol Grip from the same series.

The new production buttstock is an accurate representation of the original "Type D" stock. It features a rear sling swivel and lacks the trap door compartment. This is the most versatile model and fits early M16 and AR-15 variants. The assembly comes complete with an A1 length buttstock screw and instructions. Hardware and buffer tube are not included.

The Brownells M16A1 Buttstock Assembly comes in several colors. Black is appropriate for Model 602, XM16E1, M16A1 and later generation AR rifles introduced after 1963. Green is the correct color for early Model 601 rifles, the first AR-15 adopted by the US Air Force in 1959. The Brown tone is similar to furniture found on early AR-15 prototype rifles in the late 1950s.

Please note that while these retro furniture sets from Brownells accurately represent the original design, some changes have been made to accommodate modern manufacturing methods or to avoid issues with counterfeit components.
