Pictured above is an actual MFI photo of " The Single Shot M16A1 AIRSOFT ". (Just as MFI supplies to the Professional Motion Picture Industry.) This product is state of the art in low volume air guns. Commonly known as Air Soft this model is single shot only. This is to say this you must physically cock the operating rod before each shot. The BBs used are the industry standard 6mm plastic type. The M16A1 was replaced by the M16A2 as the standard US Military battle rifle. The M16A1 & M16A2 is the longest versions in length of the M-16 series. The M4A1 and XM177E2 are the shortest weapons of this series.

SPECIAL NOTE ON REALISM: Although this product may look similar to the real thing when compared side by side they are NOT identical. While they may share some of the same cosmetic features / external shape the internal & external mechanisms for actual operation are in fact completely different from the real thing. Of course this is NOT are real weapon nor is it manufactured by COLT. The real weapon's manufacture has NO relationship to this airsoft product which is styled after the real thing. Thus any mention of or use of trade names is done in reference to the real weapon and NOT the airsoft product. No MFI offered product has any Trademarks or other IPR use on it. We do this to be sure that there is NO CONFUSION IN THE MARKET.

In real life a real Colt M16A1 is only available to Military and Law Enforcement. The M16A1 served as the US Military's standard battle rifle virtually unchanged from 1963 to 1988. This is truly a workhorse in historical warfare seeing service all over the world by the US and it's allies. It was the standard issued weapon to all US Ground Forces and a favorite of Law Enforcement Special Operations Teams as an affordable sniper rifle. The .223 or 5.56 NATO caliber offers good ballistic characteristics for close and medium range shots. A real M16A1 if you are lucky enough to live in a state where they are legal the cost is near $5800.00 +. Why risk dangerous and expensive real firearms in the hands of untrained actors? Or enjoy relatively safe indoor shooting year round. It is correct in size, feel and very near the real weight making this airgun ideal for training or collecting!

Please note this like most single shot air soft guns this model has a non-adjustable HOP UP. The HOP UP is set at maximum elevation to achieve best results at about 35 feet.

What makes this airgun unique is it's low cost and good molded plastic parts. Additionally like the XM177E2 the M16A1 has a drop down / hidden away PUMP ACTION handle this is hidden in the hand guard. With a flick of a tiny button on the flip down handle allows the small vertical grip / stick to drop down and this can be used to cock the weapon instead of the regular charging handle / operation rod near the base of the rear site. Nice in this for gamers it allows a second / third shots to be fired without taking your hand away from the hand guard. Although this like most single shot airsoft bb guns is predominantly uniform black plastic it can be quickly transformed with the right tough of paint in areas to be near indistinguishable from the real thing at 2-3 feet away. Being mostly plastic the weight is the most obvious give away. There is plenty of space inside to accommodate lead weights to increase the realism. As an airsoft bb gun this may not be at the top of the list as a whole but, is a great platform to start with. We use many of these single shot air guns as props in television shows and motion pictures.
