They remained in service. Some of the original M16s are still in use, albeit with a new barrel, by units of the Air Force. The M16A1 might still be found in some units of the Army Reserve, Army National Guard, and Air Force. In the same of some National Guard units, rather than purchasing complete new M16A2 rifles, they simply bought the A2 uppers and mounted them on A1 lower receivers. Eventually, they were phased out, and either passed on to other countries, placed in storage, or scrapped.
