Actually there are at least several thousand M-16s originally sold to Lebanon back in the day.These are often used by the Palestinian authority and various groups in Palestine.One group the al-Aqsa Martyrs' Brigade features two M-16s crossed above the "Dome of the Rock" (aka Al-Aqsa Mosque) in their flag.

They would also be very useful to any terror group in South East Asia.Abu Saif primarily uses M-16s and any group in Indonesia find m-16s useful would seeing as the Indonesian military uses either M-16s or Austeyr F-88s.Best to use a the weapon that your enemy uses if you have no other reliable source.In both Iraq and Afghanistan AKs are readily available thanks to the Soviets.In Iraq of course they where used because there the Iraqi military used them.
