Fun fact, they had to amend a Gun law to specifically allow these guys whatever full autos they wanted.
I've heard they use P90s and MP5s and colt made a special SMG version of the AR15 for possible close quarter engagements. (called colt 633)

I was looking up a parts list, It seems you can acquire everything but the front sight.

Honestly the upper is the most important part, so unless I could get those parts (not hard except for front sight) I'm not super interested.

Honestly not bent up about the front sights, it's that stubby little retro handguard I like. Makes me feel like I'm illegally operating in Cambodia like a naughty little spook.

God I love 80s tactical gear. The obsession with multicam, ARs with LPVOs and plate carriers today is generic R E T V R N to tradition and rock the commando sweater, ski goggles, black fatigues, tactical vest, MP-5 and Browning Hi-Power so you can dab on terrorists and pose for Soldier of Fortune after you exit the burning embassy

How did they avoid shooting each other? They look like the guys who would try to blow up power plants and shit.

He has the second one for when the first one jams. Theoretically if nothing jams that's as many shots as a modern compact pistol, and about the same for the shotgun.
