McGuyver, how do you find the M16A3?

At least with PTW's (as with most armalites) swapping out the top receiver, cylinder, and barrel is like getting a whole new gun and set-up.

(put my order in for the M16A3 MAX Burst, but I am in the Airport so slightly wary of doing up my EMT).

My M16A3 is a Gen 1, so it's performance is nowhere near that of a new MAX gun. But, the basic platform is there and I can bring it up to Gen 3 standards for less than $300 or up to MAX standards for about $300 more. I can also make it semi-auto only, or burst with no extra expense involved (once upgraded to Gen 3 level), so with a custom 6.01mm barrel I could use the M150 at most fields in semi-auto and have a good gun for single-shit kills or perhaps double-taps.
