The M16 Rifle is the basic armament of the Allied G.I. and the standard firearm of the Allied infantry. In real-world parlance, it is an "assault rifle", which translates to "automatic carbine" - however, there is an even lighter carbine version of the M16, the M4. The M16 is superior in range and penetrative power to the PPSh-41 used by regular soviet Conscripts, matched with the AK-47 of the Red Guard in both terms, equal in range and firepower to the M1 Rifle, M14 Rifle, Lee-Enfield Rifle and Mosin-Nagant, but superior in rate of fire to all of them. The Third Power Assault rifle is equal to the M16 in all terms. All automatic guns are superior to the M16 in terms of range and firepower and equal in firing rate.

  • The M16 rifle, officially designated Rifle, Caliber 5.56 mm, M16, is a United States military adaptation of the ArmaLite AR-15 rifle. It is seen being carried by various members of the United States Marine Corps in numerous episodes of NCIS.
  • The M16 is a lightweight, 5.56 mm caliber, air-cooled, gas-operated, magazine-fed rifle, with a rotating bolt, actuated by direct impingement gas operation. It is constructed of steel, aluminum and composite plastics, and is easy to break down and clean with proper training. Later, this weapon also had a special carbine version designated as the M4. It used the same internal mechanisms as the original M16, but had a shortened barrel, collapsible stock and was primarily designed as a more compact version of its big brother. It could also have an M203 grenade launcher mounted to it.
