Historical Background
The M16 rifle — officially designated Rifle, Caliber 5.56 mm, M16 — is the U.S. military adaptation of the ArmaLite AR-15 design. Entering service in 1964, it was first deployed the following year for jungle warfare operations during the Vietnam War. In 1969, the improved M16A1 replaced the M14 rifle as the standard service weapon of the U.S. Armed Forces.
Known for its lightweight design, accuracy, and modern materials, the M16 became one of the most recognizable rifles of the 20th century and remains a symbol of the Vietnam War era.
For cosplay and film enthusiasts, the M16 and its distinctive magazines have been featured in countless costumes, characters, and productions, representing both the period’s military history and its influence on popular culture.
