M16A1 upper assembly

[C.W.M.V.]

Well Ive got an M16A1 kit coming my way. Anyone have a link to instructions for this? I know its not that hard, but I need a guide.

Then the front sight will need to be drilled and pinned.

same with these.

Other than that.
It is as easy to build as anyother regular AR.

By the way.
I dont have the tools to drill and pin the front sight.
So Randall will be doing mine.

Thanks Ive got the tools already, just need a general guide.
I figure someone would have built an upper and posted a sticky here.

EDIT: Found this on youtube-looks stupid easy

drilling the front site pins is pretty easy just get it "straight"
