I just bought these two rifles today. They are not real, though they do look the part. They are made by Airsoft Co. Can't beat the price either 24.99 each. A nice addition to your collection.

errrm...why does the A1 has the step in barrel?
on M4s it is used for the forward mount of the M203 but what the hell is it doing on a M16a1?

Hey Elad, This is only a 6mm pellet rifle made of plastic. They look and feel just like the real thing, only a little lighter. Made by a company called Airsoft. Here a link.

Hey Dave you have to pull the charging handle back to load each shot. The magazine comes out just like the real thing, and you load the plastic ball into the magazine. Con: you can't adjust the front site, so hitting a mark on a target is impossible. Pro: it does make for a great wall model. Looks just like the real thing. Hey for $25.00......
