@Marine17inlove ...no The early m16 was tested in the lab with higher quality powder that kept the gun cleaner, which kept it from jamming. In Vietnam they used low quality powder in the bullets so they got jammed up quicker. The early model also didn't have a foreword assist so if the cartridge jammed u couldn't force it in. I'm pretty sure the early version lacked a chrome barrel too
No disrespect to you or owning this rifle it's a piece of history . I just have to mention that this rifle killed sooo many of our troops in Vietnam. (I'll be waiting for the outcry of gun store employees who scream at me and informing me that this was a U.S. service rifle, bla, bla.
@frenchfrys12 not crying at all. A little maintenance was the difference between life and death. Again, not bashing this rifle because this style led to the M4, A2, A3, ect..
@usfdude not tryin to arue but how did it kill u.s. troops btw im 16 and i own one as well and u dnt hav to b a gun store owner to b knowledgeable about guns i once beat a g store ownr at his own aruement just sayin
@TheDuetcshKid I was commenting on the stereotypical gun store employee is all... This rifle, again, a great rifle in my opinion, however was not without early shortcomings. The a1 was prone to jamming and was useless unless kept clean. When I say that this rifle was responsible for our service men's deaths I am making note of all the kia troops found with their rifle half way broken down.
@usfdude It's not the goddamn rifle, and let me make it clear, our troops was killed because of those of the clusterfucks who told those mens that the M16 was self cleaning! Not even the AK that could survive long usage without cleaning.
@markandrewtan I thought that later model m16's had 3 round burst settings on them because it went through ammo so fast. I know for sure that they had to simply turn down the cyclic rate of the ar-15...
@1stLtRyan okay Mr. 1stLt. (lol), quickly, the a1 and a3 are full auto, while a2 and a4 are burst, and some models from certain manufacturers have all firing modes, ie. semi-burst-full.
@jorgec5151 - if you can get them (transfer from existing owners, for example), you are allowed to license them during an amnesty period. plus military reservists get some elbow room.
@GsxRaider quickly, the a1 and a3 are full auto, a2 and a4 are burst, a1 and a2 have a one peice upper/carry handle, while a3 and a4 are flat top (railed), thats pretty much it
@SuperRussianSamurai they also made it burst because new recruits would spray and pray and waste 1500 rounds of ammo instead of trying to hit the target
What you CoD children expect full auto as, is someone wasting ammo because they can, this is "full auto," it is the setting the rifle was on, and that's what it is properly recognized as.

@usfdude Well, the early rifle was so good that it clean it self, that's why US troops got fooled with jams rifle.
Respectively, Mr. Stoner did request the government to purchase cleaning kit.
