uh well there completly different guns...the m16 is a assualt rifle and the l96 is a bolt action rifle. m16 is probly the better choice if your trying to survive on a battlefield.
first of all my favourite assault rifle is the m16. its better than the ak47 in some ways but the ak is better than the m16 in others wich makes them balanced for battle.the m16 can take attachments-grenade launcher EOTECH sight Combat scope for long ranges masterkey-shotgun barrel attachment(the ak doesnt have this one)foregrip for more steady shooting laser sight burst/single/auto...etc and the m16 is younger and a bit more modern than the AK but i don't care about theyre balance i think the m16 is better because it has that vietnamite/taliban pwnage smell-hpe i helped
I believe that Colt has the government contract to produce the M16 for the US military.
The M16 is capable generally of 1 1/2 inch shot groups at 100 yards. Some of them will shoot 1 inch groups at 100 yards. So at 300 yards, you should be able to hit a 3 inch to a 4 1/2 inch size target. Ammo, gun, and shooter are all a part of making this determination
it looks exactly like a vietnam era m16 in .22 caliber
Lots.
30 rounds, However, many soldiers load 29 rounds to reduce the possibility of a first round fail-to-feed.
Many companies sell m16 style magazies. They may be real-cap and have 30 rounds, mid-cap and have 50-100, or hi-cap 300 rounds.
the standard m16 shoots the 5.56mm, but it can be converted to shoot 9mm, 7.62mm, even .308
It depends strictly on the magazine. Some magazines hold 10 rounds, some hold 30 or more.
Enlist! What better way to get free ammo and GET PAID to shoot your M16!
