Brownells announced their latest offering the BRN-605 which is a replica-clone of the experimental only, never-issued colt model 605. A great piece for a collector or someone who is really into replica rifles.
Brownells states ” Like the original, the Brownells BRN-605 is built around our replicas of the XM16E1 upper and lower receivers (ours is called the XBRN16E1). The lower has the partial “fence” around the magazine release, while the upper has a forward assist, but no shell deflector. The entire bolt / carrier group is chrome plated, again like the original. The 15.5″ A1-profile (skinny) barrel is capped by the standard 3-prong “duckbill” flash hider of early M16s. The hider is pinned and welded in place so you don’t have to contend with NFA short-barreled rifle (SBR) regulations when you purchase a 605 upper. There’s a forward assist, but no shell deflector.”
