The AK is the type of girl that isn't very sensitive, but doesn't have much personalty either, she's good where ever she needs to be, but isn't particularly good in any one area. The AR however, may be a little sensitive, and can't take as much as AK, but treat her right and take care of her, and she'll shine where ever you need her.

@romeoalpha11164 жыл бұрын
@@justnoob8141 The FAL fires 7.62mm whilst the EM-2 fires 7.1mm, it's worth noting this as Britain adopted the L1A1 - basically the FAL. Britain has and always will (most likely) value accuracy over all else, so the weight and recoil from a weapon used to not be valued as much. The recoil is deemed to be half that of the .303/7.7mm British, which is really good considering the weight differences between them. Finally, note that it's quite similar in size to the M14, but most of it is barrel. The AK-47 is somewhat similar, firing 7.62 (though not exactly, as there is a weight difference as with a velocity difference). By definition, it's an assault rifle as it fires a round that is less powerful than standard rifle caliber rounds. The M16 vs EM-2 isn't a argument, as so much was learned during the 10~ or so year differences between them. The M16 was designed as an alternative to the US traditional doctrine, the EM-2 was forged from experience in WW2. This is like comparing the Sherman and Tiger - you can't. They're too very different designs made for different things. As a side note though, the L85 is quite similar to the M16 - the second iteration fixed most problems - the key one was lack of QA and issues all round. A2 is equal to the M16A1, being the one that fixed most problems. Still waiting on the A3 though. i don't know why i did this

He then says the AK47 and M1 Carbine as "the best rifles ever made". While the AK and M1 are superb. He still doesn't know shit about weapons.

The thing is Armalite specifically told the U.S. Dept of Ordinance that A. it needed to be issued with new powder, and B. each man needs a cleaning kit, but the DO figured they could save a few bucks per rifle if they just didn't fucking do that. That's what got men killed. Not a bad engineer decision, or a shitty weapon. The DO absolutely cheaping it as much as possible.

It's somehow ended up heavier than the original XM16E1 yet due to the shorter gas tube and shorter buffer tube the recoil is way snappier, the muzzle kick is clearly way worse. And the burst-mechanism makes the trigger way worse. The M4 also has a sight radius as short as the AK47.

The M16 vs. AK47 debate will rage long after both have become obsolete. The debate will take its place among such hallowed time wasters like the longbow vs. the crossbow and the two-handed longsword vs. the katana. Born of a turbulent era, the M16 and the AK47 will melt into the depths of historical what-ifs, being associated with hypothetical campaigns of USSR vs. USA, like that of the Mongol Empire vs. the Roman Empire. In the ceaseless march of science and progression, classes of weapons rise and fall in the context of their eras. The class that seems full of variation is reduced to a simple moniker. Short bows, composite bows, longbows, they dissolve into simply "bows", as their usefulness succumbs to the next generation of arms. When the generations of the future look back on our era of primitive gunpowder-based projectile launchers, they'll laugh at our "assault rifles" musing how just one of their anti-matter dispersal units could wipe out entire platoons of us at a time. And when their texts show an image of these cumbersome, crude, "assault rifles", there will be two specimens shown as examples. The Kalashnikov AK-47, and the Armalite/Colt M16.

I guess if you really want to get technical in terminology, you can say that the ar15 is the general name of the platform. The M16 is then the military designation of the ar-15 capable of select fire and fitted with a 20 inch barrel. This also means the M4 is the military designation of the ar-15, but with a 14.5 inch barrel with carbine length gas system, and SPECIFICALLY the one function change that allows it to be different enough to have a different designation (and not just M16 para or someshit) is the more sloped feed ramp cuts that now extend past barrel extension and down into the receiver. Modern ar-15s now sport this M4 cut in barrel and A4 receiver, and M4 cut barrels are fully compatible with older generation upper receivers like the M16. However, older style barrels without the M4 cuts (M16 barrels) may run into reliability issues if attached to any A4 cut upper receiver (M4)
@brianzimmerman48373 жыл бұрын
Small correction. It wasn't the AR-10's light weight that kept it from GI hands, and it wasn't the contracted company that caused the M16's reliability issues. It was active sabotage from the Ordinance Corps. The AR-10 also had a disadvantage in trials by bringing a few experimental barrels that could handle the mil-spec ammunition, but couldn't handle the out of spec and overdressed ammunition the ordinance corps gave it. The AR platform in any western caliber is pretty much the pinnacle of western firearms design.

Think about it in context. The springfield m1903 lasted from adoptiom in 1903 till replacement in 1936. 33 years in service. The m1 garand from 1936 till 1959 when replaced by the m14. 23 years in service. The m14 lasted from adoptiom in 1959 till 1968 when replaced my the m16a1. Not even 10 years. Then, its 2020 and the basic rifle is still being used (of course mainly in a carabinr configuration as the m4) The m16 has gone strong for over 50 years, and besides the marined maybe switching from m4s to m27s, the rifle has withstood every other attempt to dethrone it. Besides veeery early guns (way back when tech evolved less rapidly), no rifle in US service has done the same. It went from MLK to the space age and into today. edit: it took until 2021 before another rifle was adopted, but even then we'll see how long before the M5 is widely adopted, 55 years and kicking.

The m16 actually functions great in sand and mud. In fact it handles mud better than ak pattern weapons. You can see inrangetv's series of tests on that as proof. The problem with the m16 was design changes made by Congress right before adoption that caused the rifle to operate out of spec and to save money. These issues caused malfunctions that would not have happened otherwise and the rifle had been perfectly reliable after the initial problems were fixed

@@OlDanTucker Nope. The largest issue of the M16s in Vietnam was the fact that their chambers were not chrome lined. This was done by save on expenses. The barrels of the M16s issued to many troops had no protection from corrosion on the inside of the barrel (and therefore the chamber). In the humid jungles of Vietnam, the inside of these barrels rusted quickly. After the barrels rusted and the rust was removed, pitting was left inside of the barrels; this included the chamber. As the ammunition is fired, the brass case expands to cling against the walls of the chamber. The brass was expanding into the pitting left behind by the rust, increasing the amount of friction between the spent brass and the chamber walls. This increased friction increase the amount of effort required of the rifle to extract the cases, leading to extraction failures.

The m16's development was a time when officers with no experience in battle or any education of how to fight a war is promoted to the very top, and intentionally make the decision to kill his own men to try and prove his hyperconservative point- that every soldier should be armed with gold plated, 80 caliber muskets and golden crosses. The m16 was sabotaged in the development cycle. The designer Eugene stoner was young when he first designed it, and was old by the time it was being used. It was that long. This is part of a much larger story, known as, why we fucking lost allot of wars.

The development of the M16A2 rifle was originally requested by the United States Marine Corps in 1979 as a result of combat experience in Vietnam with the M16A1.[191] It was officially adopted by the Department of Defense as the "Rifle, 5.56 mm, M16A2" in 1983.[192] The Marines were the first branch of the U.S. Armed Forces to adopt it, in the early/mid-1980s, with the United States Army following suit in 1986.[193] Modifications to the M16A2 were extensive. In addition to the then new STANAG 4172[194] 5.56×45mm NATO chambering and its accompanying rifling, the barrel was made with a greater thickness in front of the front sight post, to resist bending in the field and to allow a longer period of sustained fire without overheating. The rest of the barrel was maintained at the original thickness to enable the M203 grenade launcher to be attached. The barrel rifling was revised to a faster 1:7 (178 mm) twist rate to adequately stabilize the new 5.56×45 mm NATO SS109/M855 ball and L110/M856 tracer ammunition. The heavier longer SS109/M855 bullet reduced muzzle velocity from 3,260 ft/s (994 m/s), to about 3,110 ft/s (948 m/s).[195] A new adjustable rear sight was added, allowing the rear sight to be dialed in for specific range settings between 300 and 800 meters to take full advantage of the ballistic characteristics of the SS109/M855 rounds and to allow windage adjustments without the need of a tool or cartridge.[196] The flash suppressor was again modified, this time to be closed on the bottom, so the new birdcage-type muzzle device would not kick up dirt or snow when being fired from the prone position, and additionally act as an asymmetric recoil compensator to reduce muzzle climb.[197][198] A spent case deflector was incorporated into the upper receiver immediately behind the ejection port to prevent (hot) cartridge cases from striking left-handed users.[113] The action was also modified, replacing the fully automatic setting with a three-round burst setting.[196] When using a fully automatic weapon, inexperienced troops often hold down the trigger and "spray" when under fire. The U.S. Army concluded that three-shot groups provide an optimum combination of ammunition conservation, accuracy, and firepower.[199][failed verification] The number of rounds fired in a burst is determined by a cam mechanism that trips the trigger mechanism for each shot in the burst. For the burst the trigger must be held down for the full duration of the burst. The M16 series will terminate the burst if the trigger is released before the burst is complete, but keep the cam in position. Thus, the next time the trigger is pulled, the weapon will only fire one or two rounds.[200][201] The USMC has retired the M16A2 in favor of the newer M16A4; a few M16A2s remain in service with the U.S. Army Reserve and National Guard,[202][203] Air Force, Navy and Coast Guard.[citation needed] The handguard was modified from the original triangular shape to a round one, which better fit smaller hands and could be fitted to older models of the M16. The new handguards were also symmetrical so armories need not separate left- and right-hand spares. The handguard retention ring was tapered to make it easier to install and uninstall the handguards.[113] The new buttstock became ten times stronger than the original due to advances in polymer technology since the early 1960s. Original M16 stocks were made from cellulose-impregnated phenolic resin; the newer M16A2 stocks were engineered from DuPont Zytel glass-filled thermoset polymers and became a replacement part for the preceding M16A1. The new buttstock was lengthened by 5⁄8 in (15.9 mm) and included a fully textured polymer buttplate for better grip on the shoulder, and retained a panel for accessing a small compartment inside the stock, often used for storing a basic cleaning kit.[204] A notch for the middle finger was added to the pistol grip as well as more texture to enhance the grip. The new pistol grips were engineered from Zytel glass-filled thermoset polymers. The M16A2 pistol grip became a replacement part for the preceding M16A1.[113][204] The standard Model 645 M16A2 has a safe/semi/three-round burst selective fire trigger group. It became standard issue for the U.S. Marine Corps and Army. There is also a safe/semi/three-round burst/automatic selective fire trigger group Model 708 version of M16A2 rifle named "M16A2 Enhanced", used by some militaries around the world.[205]
