I think so. It is the Mid-East.
I'll take Crap for one thousand, Alex.
LOL, SMB (Spilled My Beer).
If it were a Seal weapon it would have an even worse paint job using shades of cheap krylon camo
It’s probably possible to buy those in about 1,000 places. None of which is around Coranado.
Yeah, everybody knows that M16s are semi-auto. :<{
Any idiot can stencil anything they want on any gun.
Search “ar 15 trident lower navy” and you’ll find engraved lowers for sale. Some wannabe got himself a trident lower and then spray painted it... Badly. That isn’t a “SEAL” rifle. Dumb journalist.
When was the last time SEALs were issued an M-16? Something doesn’t add up.
A weapon made for pimps at gun shows.
I have never seen a selector lever like that.
Bad attempt at propaganda by Palestinians most likely.
Reporter even writes “semi-auto version of the M-16” UH. The M16 is always full auto.
Also, the bad paint, or it could just be globs of cozmo is bad. A weapon used by the seals would have dents and dings and chips over every surface of the gun.
Find the closest shop with a small CNC and you’ll find who made that engraving.

Odd headline given the second paragraph.
Making the finding of the M-16 all the more unusual was that the lethal weapon was inscribed with the logo of the US Navy SEALs, though the insignia appears likely to have been faked.
Its on the other side. I recall having to have it going as fast as a holster draw..
Aluminum is anodized ... but that isn’t an anodizing job, either. It’s a nasty, incompetent job of spray-painting with gloss black Krylon.
I can laser etch a trident into any gun you want 24 hour turn around.
the mag release button is on the right but the release itself is on the left
yeah, you’re right
"Odd headline given the second paragraph."
Great observation.
Israel National News silently rewrote that sentence. I imagine there was some feedback.
