About Real M16A2 COLT M723

The Colt Model 723 is a transitional military carbine developed in the mid-1980s, most famously used by U.S. Army Delta Force and featured in the 1993 Battle of Mogadishu. It bridged the gap between the Vietnam-era CAR-15 and the later M4 carbine.
Its significance stems from its role with special operations units during the late Cold War and early 1990s. The carbine used by Medal of Honor recipient MSG Gary Gordon in Somalia, often called the "Gordon Carbine," was a customized Model 723 with an early red dot, a weapon light, and a suppressor.
Technically, it was a hybrid design. It typically featured a 14.5-inch barrel and a collapsible stock. It often combined an upper receiver with an M16A1-style carry handle and brass deflector with a lower receiver marked "M16A2". This mix of features and its special operations pedigree make it a direct predecessor to the modern M4.
