    I got my M16A1 upper built a couple days ago.
    Here is my A1 that I finished a little while ago.

    Looks pretty good. The only recommendation I would make is to consider getting one of Nodak Spud's NDS-16A1 lowers (black or XM Gray - which ever matches the upper better). My first A1 I built, I did the same thing you did and used an A2 lower. A few years ago, I replaced it with a black NDS-16A1 lower. It looks so much better with the A1. The next A1 I am working on will have an XM Gray lower and I will be distressing it to match the upper. Again, nice job on the A1.

    Thanks. It is not an A2 lower. It is an old SGW lower that I have had for almost 30 years. It is an A1 profile. It is black and that is a black NDS A1 upper on it.
