armalite made the AR-15 (the first M-16) then they sold the rights to COLT who makes the M-16
It depends on which companies make the m4 you have, but generally companies stick to the same dimentions for magazines for the m4/m16 family.
kiss my butt
The only companies which have manufactured the M16 were:Colt (USA)GM Hydramatic (USA)Daewoo Precision Industries (South Korea)FN Herstal (a Belgian company, but they were made in South Carolina)Harrington & Richardson (USA)US Ordnance (USA)Elisco (Philippines)Chartered Industries (Singapore)Those are the only companies which built the M16 to specification. They used the same specs, tolerances, et. al. AR-15 rifles are not M16 rifles.
5.56,hope i helped,by the way my favourite rifle is the m16a2
Many companies sell m16 style magazies. They may be real-cap and have 30 rounds, mid-cap and have 50-100, or hi-cap 300 rounds.
A M16 cost about $2000.00
With enough money, yes.
M16
The M16 was invented @ 1960
The M16 and the M4 are the US designations for the AR-15 pattern of rifles.
The AR-10 was designed by Eugene Stoner in 1955. The AR-10 fired the 7.62x51 NATO round. The AR-10 was rejected by the military in favour of the M14. However, an updated version of the AR-10, the AR-15, was adopted by the US military and designated the M16. The M16 has since developed into several versions, including the A1, A2, A3, and A4.
first of all my favourite assault rifle is the m16. its better than the ak47 in some ways but the ak is better than the m16 in others wich makes them balanced for battle.the m16 can take attachments-grenade launcher EOTECH sight Combat scope for long ranges masterkey-shotgun barrel attachment(the ak doesnt have this one)foregrip for more steady shooting laser sight burst/single/auto...etc and the m16 is younger and a bit more modern than the AK but i don't care about theyre balance i think the m16 is better because it has that vietnamite/taliban pwnage smell-hpe i helped
