M16 VN version problem

Jul 8, 2006 12:15am
I got a problem, can some one help out? I got a TM VN M16 and I am changing a metal body, how can I put the TM front barrel onto GP metal body or I have to get another outer barrel to install on it? Thanx guys:)

is the body made for the VN? if not, the barrel and body are not compatable unfortunatly. Had the same problem.

yeah, the VN reciever design is very different from the A2 design. There are no threads, just kinda a barrel collar of sorts.

what you need is the older a1 body, the a2 body requires the m16vn front end which cost around 145 at airsoft shops.

I got the GP metal body for VN version and I guess I have to order the whole front unit cause TM made it so funny, no way I can put it on.
