possibly but the chances are very slim, the reason is the US government receives a lot of support for buying weapons from certain companies for different reasons, anyway the US is dependant on this support and would not risk it just to have a slightly newer (but basically an m4) gun

When is the us military going toreplace the m4-m16?

When they feel it necessary to do so.


Who make m16 308?

Nobody. M16 is a military nomenclature specific to variants of the AR-15 rifle in 5.56x45. The rifle which the M16 was derived from - the Armalite AR-10 - was in 7.62x51 and does not have an "M" series nomenclature from the US military, as it was never adopted into service by the US military. As for civilian variants of the AR platform, there are many manufacturers - Knight's Armament, DPMS, Rock River, Bushmaster, just to name a few.

Is the acr better than the m16?

It has some advantages, but has yet to be proven in combat. The ambidextrous controls are a definite plus, as is the gas piston system. The quick change barrels and ability to change calibres quickly is definitely an added plus. However, unlike the Czech CZ805, it lacks a detachable magazine adapter, meaning that it can only accept STANAG 4179 magazines. The use of side mounted charging handles means it can facilitate a cheek rest on the buttstock, plus the side folding buttstock allows it to be compacted to a shorter length than the M16 or M4. The monolithic rail on the upper is a nice feature, and the use of polymers means there's less parts prone to rust. The controls are based on the M16, so familiarisation should be a fairly quick process. As far as civilian variants go, on the other hand, your money would be just as well spent on a quality AR. The "enhanced" Bushmaster ACR, with a 1 in 9 chrome-moly barrel, had an MSRP of over $3000. You could spend a lot less and get an AR built with quality parts, and even a gas piston upper system (such as the ones offered by POF, Addax Tactical, CMMG, and others), AND still have a chrome lined barrel, at whatever pitch you wanted (1 in 9, 1 in 8, 1 in 7).
