That unit is the Israeli Border Guard. The IDF doesn’t throw things away. The problem is that the older stuff is rifled 1/12 for the 55gr m193 and the newer stuff m4 barrels are rifled for the 62gr ss109/m885.

This one show already once rebuilt in 1973 by US Anniston Depot. And later went to Israel and rebuilt again into carbine.

You could tell right away who had those rifles by the two tone look the rifles had. The lowers were pretty old. Never saw any A1 uppers though. |

Saw almost every IDF x95 when I was there had that same chamber flag and bungee set up. I think it’s something manufactured and issued, not soldier improvised.

I think that set up with the chamber flag and bungee allows them to keep a live magazine in the weapon.

In addition to chamber flag, I think I also saw the orange muzzle plug? That's way overkill.

Hornady Rapid Rack
 https://www.hornady.com/shop/accessories/hornady-rapid-rack I have one. They work. Some LE agencies use them so they can keep a loaded magazine in the gun. It does work faster than the charging handle. YMMV |

They used to use these. I have one in my parts box.
 E-Lander Magazine in old-style IDF Mag Carrier. It is turned down for faster loading. The mag can also be turned up for more streamlined carry.  MTH Magazine carrier replaced the TMC and holds the magazine an a way that keeps it the weapon more compact and is quicker to load. https://israeldefensestore.com/fab-defense-accessories/fab-defense-mth-horizontal-magazine-carrier.html |

Engraved above the magwell is 8 - 23 - ANAD (Anniston Army Depot) Which is typically how weapons are marked when they've gone through a rebuild or at least inspection at the depot level. |

Well this started as a Blood Diamond clone build, but decided to go my own way.
H&R M16A1 lower; Colt 6520 upper, Colt M4CQB barrel, Surefire Blast Warden on a Surefire A2 FH. I like the idea presented earlier of a lug adapter to mount a light. Looks like a perfect setup for a Micro Scout.  |

This was my main jam for years, only difference was aimpoint and light.
Need to toss one of the streamlights on it today. It serves as the truck gun and KISS carbine now. 6921 factory upper, pinned a2x, Centurion C4 cutout, Geissele g2s. +/- 12k rounds and on it's second bolt - flat out shoots.
