Thanks, but I placed an order for 1440 of the Radway Green that Aim is selling. It's funny that it's called Radway Green but they don't use the green paint...
:confused:
Wow, Colt Defense shipping out 8000 a month!
Anyone know a way to save the "flash" photos on that link?

Maybe they had the L1A1 up until they switched to 5.56, by which time 1/7 barrels were standard and they didn't need to worry about inventory of 1/12 barrels?

You could hit the PRT SCR button on your keyboard and then edit it in Paint.
Labor intensive, but it works.

You're correct, the SA-80/L85A1 never had a 1/12" twist.
The Brits did use M16's and M16A1's, mainly SAS, SBS, those kind of units, but I believe they got most of their ammo from us too. There are also Canadian C7's and C8's in inventory as well.

I loce the Canadians! I never did like the A2 upper sights!
All I own are A1`s and Flat Tops
By the way, Radway Green is the ammunition manufacturer, doesn't have anything to do with green-tip SS-109.
