| I have tried searching this site as well as the internet and Im getting conflicting answers. I am looking to build an accurate example of the MK12 Mod 0 rifle. I have found just about every piece required for the build with the exception of upper and lower receivers. I have read some uppers were supplied by armalite.colt,diemaco. Does anyone know what the best representation to use? Then on the lower I have read they were asembled by Crane, does anyone know the manufacturer? I would appreciate any help with this and before all "do a search" comments start up, I have searched and havent found the exact answer. |

Colt M16 and M16A1 lowers make sure you get the correct handguard, rail, and front sight.

I have located the front site and handguard from PRI and the ARMS #38 SPR PEQ-2-3 and will order them today. The correct upper and lower receivers were my last step. |

PRI has a set of the original parts? They havent made those in years. Are you sure you're getting the correct parts? The correct/original front sights are bringing big bucks lately. http://www.adcofirearms.com/images/earlyprisight.jpg I have secured the exact handguard. The front sight wasnt easy to find but the guy Im buying it from claims its original and the photos he sent are correct. He will refund me my money if I am not 100% satisfied with it because as you mentioned it wasnt cheap. I know in a few days when it arrives. |
