The M16 assault rifle is chambered for the 5.56x45mm NATOintermediate rifle cartridge. It can also accept .223 Remington rounds.
Nobody. The M16 is not a sniper rifle, and it did not enter production until 1960.
In the US, Israel, and quite a few other countries, you can get an M16 variant if you enlist in the armed forces. A US civilian in most states can buy an actual M16 from a Class III firearms dealer. The rifle will need to be one registered with the ATF prior to 1986. The transfer will require a background check, approval of a local law enforcement chief, and payment of a $200 tax to the ATF. These rifles are expensive due to limited supply - expect to pay upwards of $25,000 for one. Also, you can buy an M16 if you become a Class III dealer or make one if you become a licensed manufacturer. A civilian clone of an M16 (more or less same rifle minus the full-auto capability) can be purchased the same as any other rifle from a gun shop or a private party.

The weight of an M16 rifle without a magazine or sling is approximately 7.2 pounds.
