We still run an original Colt M16A1 lower for training. Not sure of year, but at least pre-86. Upper is immaculate as well (lives in the safe, replaced by 10" uppers)

It is 'combat accurate' -- won't win any prizes. I've put about 40 rounds through it in the 4 years I've had it, with groups averaging 2.5 to 3.5 MOA with standard M193.

I bought it because it was a pretty good deal at the time and I'd not come across many unmolested 1st generation SP1 rifles.

I currently have 3 other AR types that are much more accurate and see much more range time.
