[QUOTE="Tazdev67, post: 853470, member: 6805"] There isn't any rifle currently made that will withstand continuous fire. Sounds like they needed more M249's, 50's and other types of heavy machine guns then M16's. Also I believe most in that post were getting ready to ship out and most likely only had limited resources. The M-16 is a great rifle but they won't shoot rounds forever without having problems. They weren't designed for that. [/QUOTE]
