FN USA M16A4

Auto Credit Based on Pilotmario's Colt M16A2

The M16A4 is the fourth major iteration of the M16 platform in US military service. It's most notable features is the flattop receiver with MIL-STD-1913 accessory rail and a Knight's Armament Company M5 RAS hand guard. This particular rifle is fitted with an M4-style six-position collapsiable stock, carry handle-style rear sight, and foregrip. The presence of the M4-style stock on a full-length rifle is not uncommon. In 2014, the US Marine Corps authorized the installation of collapsiable stocks on their M16A4 for smaller Marines who have trouble reaching the trigger with the fixed stock and body armor. In addition, the Canadian Army's C7A2, a Canadian M16 variant, employs an adjustable buttstock identical to the C8 carbine, itself a variant of the Colt 653.

    @CWhat016 No. They're the new contractors for the US military for their M16 and M4 needs.

    You see, the M16 and M4 was originally supplied by Colt. However, there was a bit of a strike. And that strike was one of the longest ever strikes. In the meantime, replacement workers were hired, and thus quality dropped badly.

    The US military noticed this, and decided to find a new guy to make it, which was FN USA.
