    Stag supplying M16's to the Army?

    Are you referring to the left handed ejecting rifles? If so, then no. I believe what you're seeing are flipped images. Stag left handed uppers have inverted ejection ports:

    I think the film was mirrored in production so it appears they are left handed m16's.
    I paint spaceship parts.

    Maybe some military guys will chime in, but I wouldn't be so sure that all the footage is of actual US military personnel.

    Stag only made a4 style uppers. That is an a2, and it doesn't have the inverted ejection port cover. It's a mirrored image. The end.

    Second Marine at 1:35-37 reaches around towards the camera to eject the magazine. Obviously a mirrored video file.

    Funny that they're using videos of Marines shooting to showcase an Army design and adopted round.

    Thanks. I'm not up on digital media or otherwise.
