What is an M16's firepower?

A lot of that depends on if you have proper ammunition for the target. But for close range, open areas, or inside buildings, it is pretty decent. Its best quality is the accuracy. It is less powerful than the AK47, but much more accurate. For urban fighting, an AK47 with its heavy punch and penetrating power is better, but an M16 is very flexible and does decent in many situations, including longer ranges where an AK47 would be horribly inaccurate

What is a 5.56 x 45 NATO ammunition?

5.56x45 is the ammunition originally developed for the M16 rifle. Many people mistakenly claim it is the same as .223 Remington ammunition, although this is not true - while the dimensions are similar, neck angles and other measurements differ between the two cartridges. In the late 1970s, after the US had announced that troops stationed in Europe would be equipped with M16 rifles, NATO sought a cartridge to make standard amongst their forces, in order for there to be cross compatability between NATO military forces. The weight of the 5.56x45 projectile was increased from 55 to 62 grains.


Are M16 machine guns?

In a way the M16 is a machine gun, but it can also do three round burst and semi automatic. civilians are not allowed to have automatic m16s unless you have an automatic weapons permit, but you can have a semi automatic M16. (an AR-15 is almost like an M16 and much cheaper if you're looking to buy one.)
