Too bad he didn't have it to shoot back when he needed it.

A 601/602 lower receiver with an XM16E1 upper assembly. Interesting

There was a 601 present that day with George Hickey. Some theorize that it was that rifle that delivered the mortal wounds, not that I agree.

Side note tangential to the topic - My grandfather was in the FBI in the 50s and 60s. I have been told that he was asked to be a part of the investigation but refused because he didn’t want to move the family again (he had been stationed in College Station, Chicago, and then in CA). When he refused, that is when he left the FBI. Have always wondered how true the story is but we’ll never know I guess… that is unless the gov’t could ever process the FOIA I put in in 2022, requesting his file.

Damn. That anodizing is as light as H&Rs 2026 offerings.

XM16E1 is best retro IMO
