Colt Carry Handle M16 Scopes

[Tactical Pith Helmet]

These have been like hens' teeth for bloody ages.  

 

I hear the sound of Namsofters' wallets opening...

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm...

 

I may need one of these...

I still have a repro of these from circa 2002 upstairs. I think I paid a whole £30 for it back then from Ebay.

I bought a repro from Aliexpress a few months back for circa £35 from memory- it's excellent. Super clear lenses, and looks the business on top of the xm177.

Do you have a link at all?  I haven't found one for ages (though I may not have looked for a few months, as time goes).

I'm also hovering over the X button on that one.

I've mulled over one of these many a time over the years, ultimately went for an ACOG for my M16 carry handle upper because that's what the Bad Company 2 M16 in BF2042 has and I love it tbh (early 2000s aesthetic).  But I've never not been able to find airsoft clones of the retro Colt scope clones in stock somewhere any time I've looked, I have to say.

Yeah. Id probably roll the dice on the above as the Brownells uk prices on the scope are eyewatering £360+ if memory serves from the quick google I did.
