Newber's photo shows the Colt M16A1 carbines that were purchased by the RCMP in the late 70's to early 80's. They are a 16" light weight carbine, with the fixed carry handle A1 upper. The lower is standard M16 with a semi auto selector, but full auto parts installed. They have a Colt two position collapsing stock. Yes, I have fired them.

They are being replaced by Diemaco/Colt Canada C8 flat top rifles and are now fairly rare. Their days are numbered.
