Hi, bought one of the  M16A1 kits, and I have these questions:
1)  Will three prong flash hider fit on the barrel?  Prefer that to the birdcage.
2)  Refinishing...any reccomendations on who can park/finish whole gun to have uniform finish?
3)  I put together a lower, not that hard, but the barrel etc, making sure torque is right, headspace....uh oh...
4)  Has anyone sent this kit off to be refinished and assembled by a gunsmith/armorer?
Thanks, v/r Walt K
Also, never posted in the section before, sorry if question is out of line...

answers:

1)  Yes
2)  http://www.usanodizing.com/ (at least for the aluminum stuff)
3) You will need the appropriate tools, a manual, and some time.
4)  I don't know of anybody who has done that, but I am sure some do.


Hope this helps.
