***Corrections***

-At 9 minutes 45 seconds, I show a photograph I represent to be a "chopped-down M16A1 barrel". As many viewers have pointed out, this very well may be a Colt 933 barrel or similar. That said, the presence of a "teardrop style" forward assist indicates that the upper was assembled in Israel, so I don't think we can be sure one way or another.
