M16 was fixed? That's news to me since I used M16-A2,A3 and A4 and not of them were fixed. They would jamm at the shooting range (ideal conditions, no dirt) after less than 70 rounds.....
thats because when i was first made they switched the firing cartridge to a different caliber so it fired longer but the charge that was used to fire the bullet was dirty and not clean, if they stuck to the stock cartridge designed for the m16 they wudda had no ideal condition jams.

The powder problem was solved long ago, right after the vietnam war. They are much more reliable now.
