I would not use it for a M16A1 clone as it will be nowhere near correct. You best bet is to get a BRN-16A1 lower from Brownells and use that lower for some sort of A2 build. That said, if you are not concerned about the correctness of the proposed M16A1 clone build, then use that lower, but the lower profile and markings will detract from the overall build. In that respect, I would just call it a M16A1-inspired build and not a clone.
