  • Original Item: Only One Available. This is a great U.S. M16A1 "Plug Fire" replica gun, made by the well-known Model Gun Corporation of Japan. This particular model is the MGC-M16/CP. These work with replica "cartridges", which have small caps "plugged" into the front of them, which then is detonated by the replica bolt. These would then be ejected like a real spent cartridge, and could be reloaded with additional caps. The cap gun is no longer functional and the barrel is slightly bent.

    During the assault on the police station by the Terminator, several police officers head to the armory and begin passing out M16A1 rifles with 20-round magazines. Lt. Edward Traxler (Paul Winfield) is seen with an M16A1 and uses the rifle to shoot the Terminator in the back (which resulted in the Terminator turning around with his own AR-18 rifle). Detective Hal Vukovich (Lance Henriksen) opens up on the Terminator with one of his own after finding Traxler wounded by the cyborg. The Terminator returns fire with both the AR-18 and SPAS-12.

    This metal example was manufactured in Japan by the MGC (ModelGuns Corporation) and was acquired from the Ellis Props and Graphics liquidation auction. Ellis was the oldest and the largest Prop House in California until its liquidation auctions in late 1999 and early 2000. The original ELLIS AUCTION LABEL IS STILL ATTACHED to the butt stock of this prop gun and reads DAY 5, LOT 5859.
