The US M16 (AR15) was considered a "jungle rifle" by the US Army in the 1960s. The "Jungle Rifle" was only issued to US troops in jungle terrain (Central America, South Vietnam, South America, etc.). The official US Rifle during this period was the M14 rifle which was issued to all other US Soldiers & Marines everywhere else in the world including the US.
