Feb 1, 2009 · The M16A3 and the M16A4 are identical in appearance to the M16A2, but both have the modular upper receiver. The M16A3 is capable of fully automatic fire, like the M16A1, while the M16A4 uses the M16A2's three-round burst mechanism. Additionally, several types of optical sights have been developed for the modular upper.

May 31, 2023 · Lol as far as 50 meters. In BF3 you could snipe people with the m16a3. The gun produced the same results at distance that the M16A4 did IRL. It was great in older games because their ballistics felt great/realistic in 3 and 4. In BF2042 the bullet travel is so slow in this game the bullets result in a flick to the face rather than a death.

May 23, 2009 · The M16A3 is often incorrectly described as the fully-automatic version of the M16A4 or an M16A2 with a Picatinny rail. This misunderstanding likely stems from the use of the "A3" designation by Colt and other manufacturers to describe commercial AR-15 type rifles before the official adoption of the M16A3 or M16A4.

Mar 21, 2021 · Uh, I have over 12k kills on M16A3 so I guess you could trust me. I use: Any sight, I personally recommend using Mini Sight Muzzle brake Stubby grip Laser of any color I don't like using 223. Rem. since it make the gun do 6SK at range, but you can use it if you want less recoil.

Apr 25, 2022 · M16A3 (M16A2E3) Model 645: "The M16A3 is a modified version of the M16A2 adopted in small numbers by the U.S. Navy SEAL, Seabee, and Security units. It features the M16A1 selective fire trigger group providing "safe", "semi-automatic" and "fully automatic" modes. Otherwise it is externally similar to the M16A2."

I use, Reflex or Coyote, muzzel break, stubby, blue laser, sometimes Remington rounds, if the horizontal recoil is to much for you try muzzel break and stubby to compensator and folding grip. Not really sure what pistol grip does so maybe you should try it out. But c7a2 is a better m16a3 so just use that instead whenever you get it.

Sep 6, 2022 · M16A3 Unlock? Question I finally got back on 2042 recently and saw that, I assume in season 2, added the M16A3 which is my favorite gun from previous Battlefield but says that it needs some like weapons locker or something to unlock it.

Yet, M16A3 went all the way to be standardized alongside M16A2 and A4, so there was a process that was a bit difference than a typical special forces shopping cart. They weren't really asking for an oddball or commercial off the shelf rifle; it was basically "we want the A2, but with the A1 FCG".

The scar l / g36 / l85a2 have much better ranged performance and less recoil, the as val is a beast in cqc still with less recoil, and the m16a4 should probably be nerfed. That said I still think the m16a3 is more fun than all of the guns I listed except for the m16a4 imo.

Apr 3, 2022 · What's kind of stupid is that is an M16A3. But there is another M16A3 that really should have been called the M16A4 an what became the A4 should have been the A5 (or the other way around, I don't remember which came first). The same as the M4A1 should really be the M4A2. But someone probably got lazy and skipped some of the naming conventions.
