M16

The M16A2 makes it's appearance in the hands of numerous characters to include Lieutenant Nathaniel Fick (who has an M203 Grenade Launcher attached). The M16A2 is currently being phased out by the newer M16A4. During the Invasion of Iraq the M16A4 had started to replace the M16A2 in Army and Marine units, therefore not all units received the M16A4.
