M16 rifle - Overview.
In the 1980s, many soldiers who had been equipped with M16A1s were given a M249 (in addition to the M60s it replaced). In the 1990s, the adoption of the M4 Carbine meant many more M16A2s would be replaced by it. The Air Force currently plans to replace all its M16s with M4s according to a 2004 presentation. The M16A2 still remains the main U.S. service rifle in the Army, though in the 2000s the Marine Corps moved to M16A4 rifles. Also the M16 never entirely replaced the M14 in all roles, which continues to be used in a number o ...

M16 rifle - Colt Model 655 and 656 Sniper variants.
With the expanding conflict in South East Asia, Colt developed two rifles of the M16 pattern for evaluation as possible light sniper or designated marksman rifles. The Colt Model 655 M16A1 Special High Profile was essentially a standard A1 rifle with a heavier barrel and a scope mount that attached to the rifle's carry handle. The Colt Model 656 M16A1 Special Low Profile had a special upper receiver with no carrying handle. Instead, it had a low-profile iron sig ...

M16 rifle - Colt Model's 601 and 602.
Colt's first two models produced after the aquisition of the rifle from Armalite were the 601 and 602, and these rifles were in many ways clones of the original Armalite rifle (in fact, these rifles were often found stamped Colt Armalite AR-15). The 601 and 602 are easily identified by their "slabside" lower recievers without the commonly found "fencing" around the magazine well, and in certain cases their green or brown furniture. The 601 was adopted first of any of the rifl ...
