I am in the Texas State Air Guard and we are starting a marksmanship team that will compete against the Air National Guard. We have to use weapons that are as comparable to military issue as possible...M4 and M9.
Several of us have many weapons, just not in these two categories and will be purchasing weapons to compete on the team.
Question 1: Is the Colt LE 6920 going to be as close as we can get to military issue? What about the CMMG 16" M4? Looking for opinions. Pros and cons.
Question 2: What kind of mods/improvements can we make and not deviate too far from military issue? What can we get away with? We don't want to cheat. Just be smart about it. I know shooting techniques and practice is primary.
Question 3: What spare parts would be considered "must haves" for competition shooting?
I hope these questions belong in this category...taking into consideration that we can't use "match" barrels, etc.
PS I qualified expert with the M16 in 1981...that was a long time ago.
Regards,
Clayton
