M16A2

The M16A2 is used by U.S. Army personnel throughout the movie to shoot at Godzilla (it is also possible that some of them might actually be M16A1s with M16A2 handguards, which is common in action movies from the 1990s). During the scene in the French DGSE warehouse, several agents are seen unloading crates full of these weapons and lying them on tables.
