Is there a dfference? They look the same, same caliber, the M4 was developed in like the late 90's but the M16 is from the 60's (according to wikipedia). is there a difference with the parts or somethingl like that?
This was a cost saving change.
Because everyone knows how the Government is concerned with saving money...This was a cost saving change.
I wasn't meaning to say that the M16A3 was the same as the M16A4, just that they are newer variants of the original M16. Thanks for the clarification though, I see how the way I worded that could be misunderstood.
I wrote an article on M16/AR15 history here.
