In this video, we talked about the issue faced by soldiers during the Vietnam War where the M-16 rifle frequently jammed due to the new gunpowder used, high rate of fire, and lack of cleaning kits. This problem was subtly portrayed in the movie Full Metal Jacket when Private Joker's rifle jammed at a critical moment. In contrast, the AK47 used by the Vietcong was more reliable. It was only in 1967 that the US Army issued cleaning kits to address the issue.
