I have to admit that this picture is not ideal for illustrating the most common version of the Olympic Arms K3B CAR that I've noticed appears in movies and TV shows from the 1990s. The most common version has a mock XM177-style flash hider that has two ring notches at the base of the flash hider (which is still produced today by some other companies - see [https://www.ftfindustries.com/product/AR-XMFH.html here] for example). However, the gun in this picture has an earlier version of the flash hider without the double-notches - it was probably made in the late-1980s, before Olympic Arms changed the flash hider design (or just bought them from a different vendor). My own personal K3B CAR is actually more "clone correct" for the most common Hollywood version of this gun (see below picture of the upper on my Colt 6920 lower): | I have to admit that this picture is not ideal for illustrating the most common version of the Olympic Arms K3B CAR that I've noticed appears in movies and TV shows from the 1990s.

I have to admit that this picture is not ideal for illustrating the most common version of the Olympic Arms K3B CAR that I've noticed appears in movies and TV shows from the 1990s. The most common version has a mock XM177-style flash hider that has two ring notches at the base of the flash hider (which is still produced today by some other companies - see here for example). However, the gun in this picture has an earlier version of the flash hider without the double-notches - it was probably made in the late-1980s, before Olympic Arms changed the flash hider design (or just bought them from a different vendor).
My own personal K3B CAR is actually more "clone correct" for the most common Hollywood version of this gun (see below picture of the upper on my Colt 6920 lower):
