KE Arms is releasing this limited run of 3,000 units due to the technical challenges of achieving consistent color and fitment with polymer. The OD Green lowers can be configured with various premium features, including the JP Silent Captured Spring and KE Rekluse trigger, and are showcased in retro-style builds.

This video from Brownells introduces their new line of Retro Rifle™ Complete Upper Receivers. Paul Levy showcases two models: the BRN-605™ early carbine upper and the XBRN16E1™ (XM16E1 configuration). These uppers are fully assembled and ready to be attached to a mil-spec lower receiver, offering a convenient way to build a rifle with a vintage aesthetic. The description highlights their usefulness for those who acquired mil-spec lowers during previous market rushes and states that uppers for all Retro Rifles will eventually be available separately. The video encourages viewers to embrace the "party like it's 1969" theme.

This video introduces the Brownells BRN-605™, a detailed replica of the rare, early 1965 carbine version of the M16. Paul Levy highlights its 15.5" barrel with a 3-prong flash hider, noting its resemblance to an M16A1 with a shortened barrel. Despite its appearance, the rifle-length gas system contributes to a soft-shooting experience. The video briefly contrasts it with the later XM177 "CAR-15" carbine.
