The M16 (more formally Rifle, Caliber 5.56 mm, M16) is the U.S. military designation for the ArmaLite AR-15 rifle. Colt purchased the rights to the AR-15 and currently uses that designation only for semi-automatic versions of the rifle.The M16 rifle family has been the primary infantry rifle of the United States military since the 1960s. With its variants, it has been in use by 15 NATO countries, and is the most produced firearm in its caliber. The M16 entered U.S. Army service in 1964.The M16 is a lightweight, 5.56 mm caliber, air-cooled, gas-operated, magazine-fed assault rifle, with a rotating bolt, actuated by direct impingement gas operation. The rifle is made of steel, aluminum, and composite plastics.The AR-15 was first adopted in 1962 by the United States Air Force (USAF), ultimately receiving the designation M16. The U.S. Army began to field the XM16E1 en masse in 1965 with most going to Vietnam. The U.S. Marine Corps also adopted the system during this period. The XM16E1 was standardized as the M16A1 in 1967. This version remained the primary infantry rifle of the United States military from 1967 until the 1980s, when it was supplemented by the M16A2. During the early 1980s a roughly standardized load for this ammunition was adopted throughout NATO.According to a February 1968 Department of Defense report the M16 rifle achieved widespread acceptance by U.S. troops in Vietnam. Only 38 of 2100 individuals queried wanted to replace the the M16 with another weapon. Of those 38, 35 wanted the CAR-15 (a shorter version of the M16) instead.The M16 is the most commonly manufactured 5.56x45mm rifle in the world. Currently, the M16 is in use by 15 NATO countries and more than 80 countries world wide. Together, numerous companies in the United States, Canada, and China have produced more than 8,000,000 rifles of all variants. Approximately 90% are still in operation.[17] The M16 replaced the M14 and M1 Carbine as standard infantry rifles of the U.S. armed forces. The M14 continues to see highly limited service as a sniper rifle, designated marksman rifle and several smaller niche areas mostly in the U.S. Navy.
