Going to go shooting today! I have some Aquila 62gr and some m855. I’ve had really good performance and consistency with the new Aquila ammo.

Same configuration one an A4 clone I built. The upper on mine is from Windham Weaponry. An absolute straight shooter (even with M193).

The lower is custom from BCP with SAFE, SAMI, and BURST markings along with PROPERTY OF US GOVT markings.

Edit: That does not have burst option engraved on it though, not to split hairs or anything , that's why I like the Binary Triggers, specifically Franklin Armory, gives it that appearance, but I'm still working on finding some springs that makes it more crisp.

I have seen one side mount sling swivel on an A4; this rifle was an M4-stocked weapon at SOI east. None of the other A4s I've seen, including short stocks,  had it.

No "BURST" markings on this one. This is a CMMG that I used to make an A4 clone. The "BURST" markings are only on the other one I pictured and on an A2 clone I built. The A4 with the custom lower has a real M16 selector (center fin has been removed). The CMMG has a standard AR-15 selector.

Use a grip screw that adjust against the trigger. Works wonders.

That’s a great looking rifle! I do wish I had the proper select fire markings, but since it was a Colt, I decided to use it. It is odd though that on mine it says M4A1, but I’m not a perfectionist.

Here's my A3/A4 I recently completed. A2 BCM lower with a Colt A4 stock (spacer and screw also Colt), BCM 20" upper with BCM bcg and charging handle, Colt A4 hand guard, and Colt removable carry handle.

Don't crucify me for not having the A2 grip. Lol.. I have a spare Colt A2 grip around, I just don't like the A2 (personal preference).

Ok, I've got to know the secret. How can you tell if it's a Colt A4 hand guard?

The rail or standard? If its the rail it should say Knight Armament Vero beach or P&S products

I bought mine from Brownells. They're usually on backorder, but there aren't any markings on the hand guard that are marked as Colt. They do have the proper heat shields on top and bottom, and they work with both the triangle and round caps.

I don’t have a link handy but in the big GD thread “PSA has lost a customer.” Josiah said they’re working on an M16A4 clone lower receiver and he’s asking what serial numbers people want.

I love the wear pattern on that one.

A4 that I put together with mostly spare parts last year. The upper receiver and carry handle used to belong to one of my carbines and are what prompted me build another A4.

ALG QMS trigger
Geiselle LPK, sans the current style selector
Colt surplus M16/M4 bolt

FN marked (F 3) pistol grip
Current chalkboard looking Buttstock with plastic trapdoor (I'll replace that when I find an aluminum A2 style or modify an A1)
Brownells A2 RE, spring and buffer
KAC M5 RAS, panels and VG
Detachable carry handle I brought home from Iraq. (As back up)
Trijicon TA31RCO-A4CP

The remaining parts I had on hand from various sources
