Description

Hi guys, hope you are all well,

Looking to sell my G&P XM177E1, I've tinkered with it a long long time ago to try to make it as period accurate to the E1s carried during the war in Vietnam.

The main characteristics of it was the partial fencing, which in this case was trimmed by hand from a regular XM177E2 fully fenced lower. The "safe, semi, full" markings on the right side have been filled and sanded until smooth.
The dust cover, magazine catch and rear sight aperture are all real parts, all of them were a little funny looking on the standard airsoft model.
Original stock has been painted grey as per the original anodized stocks these had (not nylon coated).
The forging flash line on the front sight has been ground down and the front sling swivels have been roll-pinned in place.

Comes with a complete pencil barrel M16A1 barrel assembly, also from G&P, comes with handguards and gas tube installed. XM177E1 is front wired to deans, so the barrel has had a relief cut on the underside to run the cable through. Will need internal barrel. I wanted to keep the gun front wired, because it comes with a stock adapter that will allow you to put a real stock on it and turn it into an XM16E1. The buffer tube is milspec so original stocks will fit. Mine did not come with the piece that holds the end of stock in place so I made one with some hard plastic and tape, works fine.

Also comes with an additional 6 shorty MAG midcaps.

Important: I have not used this carbine for almost 5 years, it works, but could do with a bit of TLC and a clean. One of the connectors on the motor is a little jerry-rigged and I believe the grip is missing one screw.

Great fun playing with it back then, nice and compact, going to miss it but got to move it.

Any questions, offers or the like, don't hesitate to shoot me a message! Price includes shipping in the mainland!
