The iconic M16 carbine machine gun was developed and produced for the United States government. This Airsoft BB gun model is manufactured by WELLFIRE and is a 3:4 scale size airsoft rifle replica of the real thing. The MR711 is manufactured in the new UK legal two tone airsoft colours from toughened black and orange ABS anti-shock plastic, which has been carefully balanced in colour so that screws and extra parts remain black. The MR711 has a sturdy barrel and is internally weighted (1.12kg empty) for increased sturdiness, which also provides the user with a realistic feel to the gun. The bb rifle has a spring powered slide action cocking mechanism which makes the M16 replica inexpensive and easily maintained as it requires no or batteries to operate. The gun has an ergo friendly design, plus an adjustable shoulder stock which makes the MR711 suitable for both left and right handed shooters large and small. The gun features top mounted front and rear sight, an integrated carry handle, and includes a handy gun carry strap. We recommend only using polished 6mm airsoft BB pellets with this BB rifle.
