Description

UTAS 516 M16A1 20″ – 223 Rem/5.56 NATO

The UTAS 516 M16A1 pays tribute to one of the most iconic military rifles ever produced, bringing the unmistakable look of the Vietnam-era M16A1 into a New Zealand-legal straight-pull platform.

Adopted by the U.S. military during the 1960s, the M16A1 became synonymous with a generation of service rifles and laid the foundation for the modern AR platform. Its fixed carry handle and distinctive triangular handguards remain instantly recognisable today.

The UTAS 516 M16A1 captures the spirit of the original with its classic upper receiver and triangular handguard design, while incorporating some modernised components for practicality and availability. The result is a rifle that delivers the unmistakable M16A1 aesthetic and handling in a reliable straight-pull configuration.
