What’s everyone’s favorite upper to run on their M16? Mine are the Colt LMG upper and MK18 upper.
What about you?

7.5-inch "Kitty Kat" super shorty.

Ares Defense MCR.

Would be a Lakeside Razorback if I could get it running right.

Toss up between the 16 in. bbl. 9mm upper and the 9 in. bbl. .22LR upper.

11.5"A1 is the only upper I ever run

CMMG 22lr here as well. Love hate with the lakeside belt feds. They are playing hard to get.

I’ll wear them down.

Always suppressed.

Cmmg 22 upper with black dog drums.

In 556 definitely a 11.5 inch colt with fbi barrel with A2 sights.

I wish I had a lakeside but that ship has sailed for me.

Depends on the 'outing' for me.  The LM7 is a ton of fun but best kind of cumbersome.
Old video of mine running 500 rounds with no malfunctions.



My short 7.62x39s have always been one of my favorites.




My 9mm CMMG RDB is probably my favorite at the moment...I'm hoping the MEAN Arms delayed blowback will surpass it though.

I like both the 11.5” pencil barrel A1 (Colt XM177E2 sans moderator) and the 14.5” pencil barrel A1 (Colt 653) uppers. I prefer the original “retro” configurations; just my personal preference.

Colt LMG upper with the hydraulic buffer is just straight up fun in long bursts and full on mag dumps.

M16A1 upper in short controlled bursts is a lot of fun.

I was expecting it to be a bit much, but surprisingly the XM607 setup is a hoot to shoot, the stock is actually quite comfortable and the 10.25" barrel I used on the upper must have the gas port at just that sweet spot- it is more controllable and enjoyable than an 11.5" upper, go figure!

When I could get it to run the Ares Shrike Upper was fun, but it was just too finicky so I got rid of it.

I’ve been enjoying a wolf piston 14 upper
