permanent carry handle? i thought they were all interchangable??

It cannot be interchangeable unless it can actually be taken off the firearm.
Model #'s determine all sorts of changes to the platform.
Here's an Example of what I'm talking about.
In short when someone says A2 model, it generally means it has a FIXED carrying handle, Plastic Hand guards and is generally cheaper in $COST$.
From top to bottom: *NOTICE the bottom two rifles Carry Handle(Both are removable)*
M16A1,
M16A2,
M4A1,
M16A4
