It does not.
5.62mm I believe.
Impossible to answer without more details. What range? What bullet weight? What barrel length?
The M16 has greater range than the AK, and a higher rate of fire. The ammunition weighs less, and has a greater wounding ability. The AK is simpler, and handles being dirty better than the M16.
ALL AMMUNITION IS REMOVED, CHAMBER IS EMPTY, ACTION IS CLOSED, AND SAFETY IS ON. which general condition code is this?
The M16 was first used in the Vietnam War. It was a completely new weapon with a new caliber of ammunition. It was lighter and more deadly than its predecessors.
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
No such weapon.
5.56mm packs a punch. It's stopping power is good, but a gun like the MG3 can easily outkill an M16 with its 7.62mm rounds.
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.
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.)
8.5 pounds or more depending on how much attachments you put on it.
