  • Hey what can are you using? an AAC? Can't tell from the vid.

  • @jebustheone it's a surefire full size.. m4fa fa556ar whatever they are calling it these days.

  • is that an m16a3?

  • @Blackhawk5656 no, it is a M16A1 with a flat top upper..a M16A3 is more or less a M16A2 (fixed A2 style carry handle) but with full auto fire control components rather than the ridiculous burst system present in the M16A2. The M16A3 as far as I'm aware is used primarily by the US Navy. The flat top designation is M16A4 in military applications. A3 on "civilian" stuff, though.

  • @zack3g most people prefer the burst over full auto in the military

  • @Blackhawk5656 I have to disagree. Having been in the military myself, and associating with hundreds if not more current and former doorkickers, not a one likes the burst, and most prefer using semi anyways. When the occasion comes that you would need to switch to the third position, a 3 round limitation can ruin your day. Especially the way it is implemented in the M16, it doesn't reset. If you let off the trigger mid burst, next trigger pull gets the remainder. Messes up the trigger pull too.

  • Hey, moron! FPS in this case means FRAMES PER SECOND , not FEET PER SECOND.

    Even then, 1200 feet per second is more than fast enough to be lethal with 55 gr. .223 ball ammo. Not enough for reliable fragmentation, but enough to do the job.

  • @zack3g has been in military too. Burst sux - use semi. If u stuck with ur burst - u r fked up... (

  • Cool video man!

  • Thats one bad-ass looking M16

  • @zack3g So full auto is just sort of a last resort, or for supressing fire?

  • @zack3g i love when people just play cod then they think that they know everything and is that you if so that bomb

  • Aaahhh!  You're using wolf ammo?!?!

  • @parkour0423

    So you're saying if I go to my safe and remove it from there, it will not say M16A1 on the side, it'll say something else? And uh..yeah, M16s are full auto. Go away kid, you bother me.
