Would an M16A4 be out of place with the removable carry handle, or should I just stick with considering an M16A2?

I'd just roll Irons, but that's just me.

Would an ACOG be OK?

At least with the Comp M2 he can get a replica for about $30.

Umm, wtf? I believe you are correct BigC, but I can't for the life of me figure out why.

Don't fuck with the six-one.
