(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Hey all, Just a guide for the M16A4.

Single Player

The M16A4 can be seen being used by the Rangers and the Task Force 141 in MW2 Singleplayer. You can find the M16A4 on dead TF141 soldiers outside the capitol building. In the singleplayer the M16A4 is shot in a 3 round-burst. In its counter part Call of Duty 4 (CoD4) it is fired in fully automatic.

Multi-player

The M16A4 in MW2 is similar to the M16A4 in CoD4 with just a few minor differences. The M16A4 is un-locked later on in the game at level 40, and has an identical reload animation to the M4A1. The M16A4 has an added rail to the carrying handle which is unused.
The iron sights are also a bit different to the CoD4 version of the M16A4 and is less cluttered in MW2. Camo is now only applied to the rail covers, the stock, the magazine and attachments apart from the Shotgun, M203 (Grenade Launcher) , Silencer and FMJ.

Damage wise, the M16A4 has identical damage to the FAMAS having the same damage and multipliers and the same rate of fire per burst. However it has a slightly faster damage drop-off, but has a faster reload time. It has higher recoil but adding a Holographic Sight, Noticeably reduces the recoil. The M16A4 is 1 of the 3 3 round burst guns in MW2 the other 2 are the FAMAS and the M93 Raffica.

The M16A4 has the same attachments as any other assault rifle :

Grenade Launcher
Shotgun
Red Dot Sight
Holographic Sight
Silencer
Heartbeat Sensor
ACOG Scope
Thermal Scope
FMJ
Extended Magazines

Facts

The markings on the side of the M16A4 say, "Made By Infinity, Tool For Victory, U.S. No Refunds".

In campaign, the M16A4 can only carry a maximum of four grenades when equipped with a grenade launcher, whereas weapons like the SCAR-H and M4A1 can hold a maximum of 11. However, if the player equips one of these weapons, the launcher ammo will increase to 11. The player can then drop the weapon but keep the grenades.

The M16A4 has rail system mounted in the carrying handle even though its never used.

On the front cover of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2, a US Army Ranger is seen carrying an M16A4 w/ ACOG Scope.

The M16A4 has rail covers covering the unused sections of the Picatinny rails on the handguard.

The M16A4 in Modern Warfare has rail covers covering the whole of the handguard, and an M16A2 handguard when fitted with the M203.

The M16A4, along with the FAMAS and M93 Raffica, are the only guns in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 that have three round bursts. (although during game winning kill-cams or nukes, a player shooting the m16a4 will notice that sometimes the gun will only shoot 2 rounds instead of the normal three)

When rotating clockwise with a high sensitivity, (10) the player can see that on the right side of the gun there is no rail cover. This is because the players fingers would have to stretch around the gun making it look unrealistic.

In campaign, its pick-up icon will always be seen with an undermounted grenade launcher, even if one is not attached.

Recommended ways of use

The M16A4 is a very good gun in terms of Medium - Long range. The M16A4 is decent in close range with steady aim if the player is accurate. I don't recommend using the M16A4 as a gun for rushing because if you come close up to someone with a SMG and stopping power there is a 80% chance the person with the SMG may beat you.
