Description:

Eagle Arms M16-Style AR-15 5.56mm Rifle with 20" Barrel – Pre-Assault Weapons Ban

The Eagle Arms M16-Style AR-15 chambered in 5.56mm NATO is a precision-built rifle with a 20-inch barrel, known for its accuracy, reliability, and classic M16 design. This model, purchased just three days before the implementation of the Assault Weapons Ban in 1994, is a rare and highly sought-after example of pre-ban craftsmanship. With its M16-style configuration, it offers an unmatched blend of historical significance and modern performance. Ideal for collectors, tactical enthusiasts, and those seeking a piece of firearms history, this rifle combines quality construction with the legal advantages of its pre-ban status.
Key Features:

• Chambered in 5.56mm NATO: Compatible with both military-grade and civilian 5.56mm ammunition, offering versatility in shooting applications.
• 20" Barrel: The longer barrel improves velocity, accuracy, and range, making it an excellent choice for precision shooting and long-distance engagements.
• Pre-Ban Status: Purchased just days before the 1994 Assault Weapons Ban took effect, this rifle retains its full capacity for magazine compatibility and its original features, which were restricted under the ban. A true collector's piece, it offers legal advantages for owners in states where post-ban rifles are subject to additional restrictions.
• M16-Style Configuration: Featuring the iconic M16 design with a durable, forged upper and lower receiver, this rifle delivers robust performance and reliability.
• Chrome-Lined Barrel: Enhances the barrel’s lifespan and resistance to wear, rust, and fouling, making it ideal for both casual and intensive shooting.
• Ergonomic Design: The rifle’s adjustable stock and comfortable controls ensure an optimal shooting experience whether for sport, hunting, or tactical use.

History: The Eagle Arms brand, known for producing quality AR-15 rifles, gained significant recognition in the 1980s and 1990s for building reliable, military-style firearms for civilian markets. The M16, originally developed for military service in the late 1950s and adopted by the U.S. Army in the 1960s, has been a cornerstone of modern firearms design. The AR-15, a civilian derivative, remains one of the most popular rifles in the U.S. today.
This particular Eagle Arms M16-Style AR-15 was purchased just three days before the federal Assault Weapons Ban was signed into law in 1994. As a result, it retains pre-ban features that make it more desirable for collectors, especially in states where post-ban rifles are subject to limitations such as magazine capacity and certain cosmetic modifications. Rifles like this are increasingly rare, as most pre-ban models were limited to production until the cutoff date.
Perfect For:

• Firearms collectors seeking pre-ban rifles
• Enthusiasts of military-style rifles
• Long-range precision shooting
• Tactical applications and training
• Individuals interested in historical firearms
