My ex was Vietnamese, & had 2 uncles that fought in the war. One worked as a guide and translator for the American forces; & the other brother joined the Vietcong. After the war ended, they didn’t speak to each other for 25 years!
My grandfather served the Vietnam war as an ARVN rifleman in around late 1960s to 1975, He told everything about that timelines like how is it to be riding on a helicopter to how weird canned foods tasted like back in the 70s, building a base and stuffs... But the most importantly were 2 things he loves for the most were describing how he met my grandmother in the 1960s Saigon in a beautiful Ao Dai dress and his personal rifle the M16.

RIP to the 58k americans and over 1 million vietnamese who died as result of false flag gulf of tonkin. And all those who suffered from PTSD and chemical damage from agent orange.. truly a terrible war, as an American, it brings me shame the country I am from would do this. And seems to continue to do it with modern, unwinnable wars fought on false pretense. Beautiful firearm, but seeing this woman speak the language and hold the gun that took so many of her ancestors lives is sad to me. Really well done video
You forget the south Vietnamese also used these against the north, the war may have started on false pretense but the reason the south fought was to preserve their freedom in the midst of a communist takeover. As a proud Vietnamese American I owe it to my grandparents who fought on the side of the US for my life here and I couldn’t be prouder.
@@Jellycat_art not sure how many vietnamese died in the US Civil War, but I feel it wasn't our place to insert ourself as America in the Vietnamese civil war. As much as I dislike communism, I don't think that is why we were really there... as other comments touched on, lots of money is made at war.

Had the opportunity to fire and assemble an M16A1 during ROTC training in the Philippines. So far one of the lightest yet most accurate rifles I ever held. M14s were mostly used for parade duty. I remember when I first fired it the smoke smelled like a mix of burnt meat and olive oil; not the best smell but worth the training.
@@Gillan1220 Speaking of which the one that I assembled was an actual Colt M16A1 but I encountered the Elisco M16s also when we were distributed the weapons.
@@Gillan1220 Yep if I'm not mistaken a lot of the M16A1 Colts that are here in the Philippines have been mostly relegated as inert demonstration tools for field stripping. Since many of them have been prone to jamming due to being worn out over the years. Some of them are donated to ROTC units within various colleges or universities here in the country. While not demilitarized some have been placed with a scotch tape placed on the rifle butt with inscriptions saying "For Demo purposes only or Huwag iputok".
I’m Australian, my grandad fought in the Vietnam war, he died from pancreatic cancer from agent orange when I was just a baby, I have a photo of him holding me as a baby and a photo of him in his dress uniform with his medals, I have his patched on a display case and I have his original Aku bra ANZAC slouch hat, yes it’s the sexy hat with the fold, it would be awesome if you made a vid with the SLR to honour him 👍

2 of main reasons why the M16 was considered less reliable than the AK-47 when it first hit the scene was due to bean counters in Washington. Using old, bad powder in the initial batch’s of 5.56, and not the powder that was used when the rifle was initially tested, caused all sorts of failures. 2nd, troops were told the rifle was “self-cleaning” and were not issued cleaning kits. Obviously, this is not true. Once these issues were sorted out in the XM16E1 became the M16A1, it was a highly reliable weapon , just as much and maybe even more so than the AK.
Серия автоматов АК надежда и проста из за своей конструкции. Его можно разобрать и собрать за 17 секунд, а бывали такие люди в армии, что и за 13 секунд разбирали. У М16 более сложная конструкция.
@@dentercognitarna7602 For some people,the M16's recoil is more manageable for newbie gun users (probably due to their smaller caliber) AKs got a lot of kick.Not to mention,aiming through notch sights is arguably way harder than with aperture/peephole sights.
@@vincemaranzano4197 i fired from AK-74 and i need to say that this weapon is easy to aim and operate, despite if you only just take this piece of metal in your hands. 5,45 have not so much difference in impulse in response to 5,56.
YEET, I got baited because of the thumbnail! 😂 But, yes, M16 is one of the pioneers for much modern firearms. This video have pretty much solid explanation, history contents, nice presentation, yet it's a simplistic one. I love it, man.
As an American, the M16 rifle (officially designated Rifle, Caliber 5.56 mm, M16) is a family of military rifles adapted from the ArmaLite AR-15 rifle for the United States military. The original M16 rifle was a 5.56×45mm automatic rifle with a 20-round magazine. In 1964, the M16 entered US military service and the following year was deployed for jungle warfare operations during the Vietnam War. In 1969, the M16A1 replaced the M14 rifle to become the US military's standard service rifle. The M16A1 incorporated numerous modifications including a bolt-assist, chrome-plated bore, protective reinforcement around the magazine release, and revised flash hider. In 1983, the US Marine Corps adopted the M16A2 rifle, and the US Army adopted it in 1986. The M16A2 fires the improved 5.56×45mm (M855/SS109) cartridge and has a newer adjustable rear sight, case deflector, heavy barrel, improved handguard, pistol grip, and buttstock, as well as a semi-auto and three-round burst fire selector. Adopted in July 1997, the M16A4 is the fourth generation of the M16 series. It is equipped with a removable carrying handle and Picatinny rail for mounting optics and other ancillary devices. The M16 has also been widely adopted by other armed forces around the world. Total worldwide production of M16s is approximately 8 million, making it the most-produced firearm of its 5.56 mm caliber. The US military has largely replaced the M16 in frontline combat units with a shorter and lighter version, the M4 carbine. In April 2022, the U.S. Army selected the SIG MCX SPEAR as the winner of the Next Generation Squad Weapon Program to replace the M16/M4. The rifle is designated XM7. In 1928, a U.S. Army 'Caliber Board' conducted firing tests at Aberdeen Proving Ground and recommended transitioning to smaller caliber rounds, mentioning, in particular .27 in (6.86 mm) caliber. Largely in deference to tradition, this recommendation was ignored and the Army referred to the .30 in (7.62 mm) caliber as "full-sized" for the next 35 years. After World War II, the United States military started looking for a single automatic rifle to replace the M1 Garand, M1/M2 Carbines, M1918 Browning Automatic Rifle, M3 "Grease Gun" and Thompson submachine gun. However, early experiments with select-fire versions of the M1 Garand proved disappointing. During the Korean War, the select-fire M2 carbine largely replaced the submachine gun in US service and became the most widely used carbine variant. However, combat experience suggested that the .30 Carbine round was underpowered. American weapons designers concluded that an intermediate round was necessary, and recommended a small-caliber, high-velocity cartridge. However, senior American commanders, having faced fanatical enemies and experienced major logistical problems during World War II and the Korean War, insisted that a single, powerful .30 caliber cartridge be developed, that could not only be used by the new automatic rifle but by the new general-purpose machine gun (GPMG) in concurrent development. This culminated in the development of the 7.62×51 mm NATO cartridge. The U.S. Army then began testing several rifles to replace the obsolete M1. Springfield Armory's T44E4 and heavier T44E5 were essentially updated versions of the M1 chambered for the new 7.62 mm round, while Fabrique Nationale submitted their FN FAL as the T48. ArmaLite entered the competition late, hurriedly submitting several AR-10 prototype rifles in the fall of 1956 to the U.S. Army's Springfield Armory for testing. The AR-10 featured an innovative straight-line barrel/stock design, forged aluminum alloy receivers, and with phenolic composite stocks. It had rugged elevated sights, an oversized aluminum flash suppressor and recoil compensator, and an adjustable gas system. The final prototype featured an upper and lower receiver with the now-familiar hinge and takedown pins, and the charging handle was on top of the receiver placed inside of the carry handle. For a 7.62 mm NATO rifle, the AR-10 was incredibly lightweight at only 6.85 lb (3.11 kg) empty. Initial comments by Springfield Armory test staff were favorable, and some testers commented that the AR-10 was the best lightweight automatic rifle ever tested by the Armory. In the end, the U.S. Army chose the T44, now named the M14 rifle, which was an improved M1 Garand with a 20-round magazine and automatic fire capability. The U.S. also adopted the M60 general-purpose machine gun (GPMG). Its NATO partners adopted the FN FAL and HK G3 rifles, as well as the FN MAG and Rheinmetall MG3 GPMGs. The first confrontations between the AK-47 and the M14 came in the early part of the Vietnam War. Battlefield reports indicated that the M14 was uncontrollable in full-auto and that soldiers could not carry enough ammunition to maintain fire superiority over the AK-47. And, while the M2 carbine offered a high rate of fire, it was under-powered and ultimately outclassed by the AK-47. A replacement was needed: a medium between the traditional preference for high-powered rifles such as the M14, and the lightweight firepower of the M2 Carbine. As a result, the Army was forced to reconsider a 1957 request by General Willard G. Wyman, commander of the U.S. Continental Army Command (CONARC) to develop a .223-inch caliber (5.56 mm) select-fire rifle weighing 6 lb (2.7 kg) when loaded with a 20-round magazine. The 5.56 mm round had to penetrate a standard U.S. helmet at 500 yards (460 meters) and retain a velocity over the speed of sound while matching or exceeding the wounding ability of the .30 Carbine cartridge. This request ultimately resulted in the development of a scaled-down version of the Armalite AR-10, named the ArmaLite AR-15. The AR-15 was first revealed by Eugene Stoner at Fort Benning in May 1957. The AR-15 used .22-caliber bullets, which destabilized when they hit a human body, as opposed to the .30 round, which typically passed through in a straight line. The smaller caliber meant that it could be controlled in autofire due to the reduced bolt thrust and free recoil impulse. Being almost one-third the weight of the .30 meant that the soldier could sustain fire for longer with the same load. Due to design innovations, the AR-15 could fire 600 to 700 rounds a minute with an extremely low jamming rate. Parts were stamped out, not hand-machined, so they could be mass-produced, and the stock was plastic to reduce weight. In 1958, the Army's Combat Developments Experimentation Command ran experiments with small squads in combat situations using the M14, AR-15, and another rifle designed by Winchester. The resulting study recommended adopting a lightweight rifle like the AR-15. In response, the Army declared that all rifles and machine guns should use the same ammunition, and ordered full production of the M-14. However, advocates for the AR-15 gained the attention of Air Force Chief of Staff General Curtis LeMay. After testing the AR-15 with the ammunition manufactured by Remington that Armalite and Colt recommended, the Air Force declared that the AR-15 was its 'standard model' and ordered 8,500 rifles and 8.5 million rounds. Advocates for the AR-15 in the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency acquired 1,000 Air Force AR-15s and shipped them to be tested by the Army of the Republic of Vietnam (ARVN). The South Vietnam soldiers issued glowing reports of the weapon's reliability, recording zero broken parts while firing 80,000 rounds in one stage of testing, and requiring only two replacement parts for the 1,000 weapons over the entire course of testing. The report of the experiment recommended that the U.S. provide the AR-15 as the standard rifle of the ARVN, but Admiral Harry Felt, then Commander in Chief of Pacific Forces, rejected the recommendations on the advice of the U.S. Army. Throughout 1962 and 1963, the U.S. military extensively tested the AR-15. Positive evaluations emphasized its lightness, "lethality", and reliability. However, the Army Materiel Command criticized its inaccuracy at longer ranges and lack of penetrating power at higher ranges. In early 1963, the U.S. Special Forces asked and was given permission, to make the AR-15 its standard weapon. Other users included Army Airborne units in Vietnam and some units affiliated with the Central Intelligence Agency. As more units adopted the AR-15, Secretary of the Army Cyrus Vance ordered an investigation into why the weapon had been rejected by the Army. The resulting report found that Army Materiel Command had rigged the previous tests, selecting tests that would favor the M14 and choosing match grade M14s to compete against AR-15s out of the box. At this point, the bureaucratic battle lines were well-defined, with the Army ordnance agencies opposed to the AR-15 and the Air Force and civilian leadership of the Defense Department in favor. For those idiots who do not get the joke, the joke is: "As an American I know fucking everything about guns".
My grandfather (served during the Vietnam war) told me that the M16's were called "jamming Jennies" due to how often the rifle would get jammed. He called it "An unreliable piece of trash. I'd rather have my M14 back."
The M16 rifle (officially designated Rifle, Caliber 5.56 mm, M16) is a family of military rifles adapted from the ArmaLite AR-15 rifle for the United States military.

The rifle is designated XM7.[21]
There are some mild inaccuracies here. For a lot of reasons, initially the M-16 rifle was pretty unpopular with the US soldiers ordered to turn in their (admittedly 6 years older) M-14 rifles. Initially both the M-16 and the M-14 used 20 round magazines so there was no fire-power advantage. The M-16 was initially issued without any cleaning kits or oil and the first cartridges issued with the M-16 had, as a cost saving measure, been loaded with old gun powder types left over from WW2 and not well suited to the smaller bore diameter of the M-16. The combination of no easy way to clean or lubricate the rifle and the wrong powder type being used (leaving an acidic, hydroscopic, residue inside the barrel and gun action) soon resulted in carbon build up, bore corrosion, and many resulting jams and misfires during combat. With open sights the M-16 was combat effective to about 300 yards while the open sighted M-14 was considered combat effective to about 450 yards. Yes, the M-16 bullet was faster, but that did not mean it was more effective at dropping an opponent. If nothing else the .30 caliber bullet of the M-14 made a bigger hole in an opponent than did the smaller .22 diameter M-16 bullet. A larger hole meant a greater chance of damaging a vital organ or nerve cluster while also often insuring more blood loss. The statement of greater lethality at longer ranges for an M-16 bullet is simply not true. Because the M-14 bullet was almost 3 times as heavy, it retained greater inertia and delivered more kinetic energy on the target at longer ranges.than a bullet from the M-16 ever could. There is a reason the M-21 sniper rifle remained in service until the end of the Vietnam conflict. Likewise the small light weight bullet of the M-16 did not penetrate jungle foliage as easily as the heavier bullet of the M-14 did. Many US Army units initially resisted accepting the M-16 for as long as they dared. Several commanders had to be threatened with court martial until the acquiesced and swapped their M-14s for the newer bug filled M-16s. In the early part of the conflict the Viet Cong used whatever weapon they could find. Many used WW2 weapons of various origins, and of course weapons captured from French units and SKS carbines. There were also multiple incidents of attacks on US forces with home made firearms. AK-47s were far more common amongst the North Vietnamese Regular Army than they were amongst the Viet Cong, at least until the Tet Offensive. Only after the Tet Offensive was the AK-47 the most common enemy weapon encountered. By the late 1960s most of the teething problems of the M-16 had been solved. Cleaning kits and oil were issued. The ammunition propellant was changed to one more suitable for that gun's design. Early 30 round magazines were beginning to enter the supply pipeline. There were two main reasons the M-16 had remained in service that long. The gun was much cheaper to make than was the M-14, and the lighter weight of the gun and the weaker recoiling ammunition made it less punishing to allied ARVN troops who were dependent upon American supplied weaponry. Meanwhile production of the M-16 continued and soon the M-14s in Europe and later CONUS began to turn in their M-14s for the cheaper, lighter M-16. My own Army reserve unit still had M-14s and only 1 M16 (for 'show and tell' familiarization) in our inventory in 1973 when I moved on. I sold my civilian M-14 (MiA NM) back in 2016 but it remains one of the best battle rifles ever made. Many M-14s are still in use in different units. That said, I also own a Colt M4 and an AK variant and I would describe any comparison between them as a comparison of apples and oranges. Two different approaches to the same outcome.
She is holding the m16 in an AK stance. You can tell by the way that her right elbow is pointed out and far from the gun whereas the m16 stance the elbow is often lower and closer to the shooter.
1:35 -- the NVA used a mix of AK-47 and SKS, eventually phasing out the SKS as PRC production of the Kalashnikov ramped up. The VM and VC primarily used the SKS, and a lot of these were brought back as war trophies until Hanoi sent the VC to be demolished in the Tet Offensive (thus eliminating their one potential political rival). 2:20 -- actually, the 7.62 is more accurate and lethal at long range than the 5.56. The 5.56 loses energy rapidly because of the lower mass.
True, they opted for the 5.56 because of ammo volume and the close quarters fighting of the jungle. Both weapons are phenomenal, and great at different jobs. If Europe had been our battle field in WW3 I do believe they would have stayed with the M-14. I prefer the .308, and am thinking about getting an AR-10 soon, because of range and accuracy.
@@filippocorti6760 In "Progressive" politics, ranging from simple Socialism to full Communism, ANY other group is a rival for political power, especially if they are armed and combat-active. The Viet Cong (and their Viet Minh forerunners) were irregular forces who had been fighting the Japanese and later the French, before there WAS a North Viet Nam, while the NVA was a regular military arm of the North. During the Tet Offensive, Hanoi pushed the VC into the front of attacks against strong points in the Republic. VC losses were so high that the Viet Cong effectively ceased to exist as a fighting force. Rumor has it that a large number of former VC (especially leadership) came to the United States after the Fall, evading liquidation of themselves and their families.
@@SoloPilot6 I wonder if Vietnam's leadership would have liquidated them or just disarmed them and brought them into the fold. I feel skeptical the leadership would have killed them all without giving them a chance.

As a Vietnamese and a gun nerd, I find it both interesting and hilarious. Ey, this used to kill our people, still, the gun was pretty rad though. There's a sense of wisdom and maturity behind it. We acknowledge that this was a huge part of our history. And instead of hating it, we learn from it to be stronger. And also the gun was pretty rad too. 😂

Oh boy was my sqaud leader mad that night. Lol😢😢😂😂😂 but we found it lucky! Never let that happen again! Jeeeez
I remember when I was a kid in the mid 1960s seeing the nightly report of the Vietnam War. So many killed on both sides. Hasbro came out with G.I. JOE, a military doll for boys. You could get different outfits and weapons. I guess to prepare us for war. IF war was only used for defense, wed have no wars. Someone always has to pick a fight.
I remember those reports, too. some quantity of men killled in fighting for a hill somewhere. I had a general understanding of what it meant, but as a kid, didn't realy understand the horrible waste of human life.
My father served Vietnam War as a member of the 7th Division(white horse) of the Korean Army. At first, he took the m1 and m1 carbine, but after a while, he replaced it with the m16. First of all, it was good because it was light, but the problem was that it was weak in durability.
The Philippines sent a contingent to the Vietnam War. 9 Filipinos died in it. Why casualties were low was because the Filipinos were mostly there for civic action and humanitarian missions.
2 things I gotta praised about this video: 1)The translation of“Vietnam War”to“chiến tranh chống Mỹ”. I know that’s just international vs our way of calling this war,but some Vietnamese(not me)doesn’t like calling it like that,because it sounds like this is civil war to them,which of course is not. I wouldn’t blame you(or whoever do this)if you just translate that directly to“chiến tranh Việt Nam”,but whoever do this translation(whether you,or RUclips,or whoever else)deserve my respect. 2)This video was in Vietnamese. I don’t know if this was dubbed(using AI or other person),or you trully know Vietnamese(which I think you did after looking your mouth),but the fact that this video was in Vietnamese deserve another respect. Although it seems that you use different ladies for your different videos,but oh well.
Trong chiến tranh Việt Nam khẩu súng này thường hay bị kẹt đạn do không phù hợp với khí hậu Việt Nam, thứ 2 là nó có nhiều chi tiết nhỏ rất khó khăn trong việc bảo dưỡng trong điều kiện tác chiến giữa rừng sâu. Không tiện dụng như AK47
Here in Vietnam,guns(real,Airsoft,gel blasters,Nerf,toys,…)is not allowed. I kind of understand that we can and should ban real weapons,especially after the attack on Đắk Lắk(which can be considered terrorism),but other guns(like Airsoft,gel blasters…)shouldn’t be banned. Sure,the best arguments I can hear is that bad guys can use it for commiting crimes,or violence agitation,but for me those aren’t the reasons why we should do that.

Beautiful firearm, but seeing this woman speak the language and hold the gun that took so many of her ancestors lives is sad to me. Really well done video
Cringe
It's to make money wars a grift
You forget the south Vietnamese also used these against the north, the war may have started on false pretense but the reason the south fought was to preserve their freedom in the midst of a communist takeover. As a proud Vietnamese American I owe it to my grandparents who fought on the side of the US for my life here and I couldn’t be prouder.
logic in war👏
@@Jellycat_art not sure how many vietnamese died in the US Civil War, but I feel it wasn't our place to insert ourself as America in the Vietnamese civil war. As much as I dislike communism, I don't think that is why we were really there... as other comments touched on, lots of money is made at war. Sadly military industrial complex is a real and strong corporate interest in the USA

I'm Malaysian 🇲🇾 & I really respect the Vietnamese 🇻🇳 .
Not because of their ideology, but because of their great teamwork & fighting spirit 👍🏻 .
Incredible will power.
I mean there was a Vietnam on both sides so there's not much to apologize

Shooting an M16A1 off of a covered M1 helmet is just too badass looking. Loved the flower in the helmet band too, good stuff!
It would be really awesome if she fire that rifle naked
She absolutely nailed it, and she’s gorgeous.
And HOT! 😱😍
I would sure love to nail her
Glad the video is back up! It’s outstanding!
Rip to all the ppl that lost their lives in the Vietnamese war God bless there souls
Had the opportunity to fire and assemble an M16A1 during ROTC training in the Philippines. So far one of the lightest yet most accurate rifles I ever held. M14s were mostly used for parade duty. I remember when I first fired it the smoke smelled like a mix of burnt meat and olive oil; not the best smell but worth the training.
Our M16s are made by Elisco. M14s are still in use by the CAFGU.
@@Gillan1220 Speaking of which the one that I assembled was an actual Colt M16A1 but I encountered the Elisco M16s also when we were distributed the weapons.
@@josemariaemmanueltorres9206 Damn, that's awesome. Especially with the Colt markings.
@@Gillan1220 Yep if I'm not mistaken a lot of the M16A1 Colts that are here in the Philippines have been mostly relegated as inert demonstration tools for field stripping. Since many of them have been prone to jamming due to being worn out over the years. Some of them are donated to ROTC units within various colleges or universities here in the country. While not demilitarized some have been placed with a scotch tape placed on the rifle butt with inscriptions saying "For Demo purposes only or Huwag iputok".
I’m Australian, my grandad fought in the Vietnam war, he died from pancreatic cancer from agent orange when I was just a baby, I have a photo of him holding me as a baby and a photo of him in his dress uniform with his medals, I have his patched on a display case and I have his original Aku bra ANZAC slouch hat, yes it’s the sexy hat with the fold, it would be awesome if you made a vid with the SLR to honour him 👍

2 of main reasons why the M16 was considered less reliable than the AK-47 when it first hit the scene was due to bean counters in Washington. Using old, bad powder in the initial batch’s of 5.56, and not the powder that was used when the rifle was initially tested, caused all sorts of failures. 2nd, troops were told the rifle was “self-cleaning” and were not issued cleaning kits. Obviously, this is not true. Once these issues were sorted out in the XM16E1 became the M16A1, it was a highly reliable weapon , just as much and maybe even more so than the AK.
Серия автоматов АК надежда и проста из за своей конструкции. Его можно разобрать и собрать за 17 секунд, а бывали такие люди в армии, что и за 13 секунд разбирали. У М16 более сложная конструкция.
@@akulad1689M16 is more user friendly for beginners.The recoil and accuracy is just perfect.
@@vincemaranzano4197 what do you mean by "user friendly"?
@@dentercognitarna7602 For some people,the M16's recoil is more manageable for newbie gun users (probably due to their smaller caliber)
AKs got a lot of kick.Not to mention,aiming through notch sights is arguably way harder than with aperture/peephole sights.
@@vincemaranzano4197 i fired from AK-74 and i need to say that this weapon is easy to aim and operate, despite if you only just take this piece of metal in your hands. 5,45 have not so much difference in impulse in response to 5,56.

Two beautiful things in one video. This is heaven 😍😍
YEET, I got baited because of the thumbnail! 😂 But, yes, M16 is one of the pioneers for much modern firearms. This video have pretty much solid explanation, history contents, nice presentation, yet it's a simplistic one. I love it, man.
As an American, the M16 rifle (officially designated Rifle, Caliber 5.56 mm, M16) is a family of military rifles adapted from the ArmaLite AR-15 rifle for the United States military. The original M16 rifle was a 5.56×45mm automatic rifle with a 20-round magazine. In 1964, the M16 entered US military service and the following year was deployed for jungle warfare operations during the Vietnam War. In 1969, the M16A1 replaced the M14 rifle to become the US military's standard service rifle. The M16A1 incorporated numerous modifications including a bolt-assist, chrome-plated bore, protective reinforcement around the magazine release, and revised flash hider.
In 1983, the US Marine Corps adopted the M16A2 rifle, and the US Army adopted it in 1986. The M16A2 fires the improved 5.56×45mm (M855/SS109) cartridge and has a newer adjustable rear sight, case deflector, heavy barrel, improved handguard, pistol grip, and buttstock, as well as a semi-auto and three-round burst fire selector. Adopted in July 1997, the M16A4 is the fourth generation of the M16 series. It is equipped with a removable carrying handle and Picatinny rail for mounting optics and other ancillary devices.
The M16 has also been widely adopted by other armed forces around the world. Total worldwide production of M16s is approximately 8 million, making it the most-produced firearm of its 5.56 mm caliber. The US military has largely replaced the M16 in frontline combat units with a shorter and lighter version, the M4 carbine.
In April 2022, the U.S. Army selected the SIG MCX SPEAR as the winner of the Next Generation Squad Weapon Program to replace the M16/M4. The rifle is designated XM7.
In 1928, a U.S. Army 'Caliber Board' conducted firing tests at Aberdeen Proving Ground and recommended transitioning to smaller caliber rounds, mentioning, in particular .27 in (6.86 mm) caliber. Largely in deference to tradition, this recommendation was ignored and the Army referred to the .30 in (7.62 mm) caliber as "full-sized" for the next 35 years. After World War II, the United States military started looking for a single automatic rifle to replace the M1 Garand, M1/M2 Carbines, M1918 Browning Automatic Rifle, M3 "Grease Gun" and Thompson submachine gun. However, early experiments with select-fire versions of the M1 Garand proved disappointing. During the Korean War, the select-fire M2 carbine largely replaced the submachine gun in US service and became the most widely used carbine variant. However, combat experience suggested that the .30 Carbine round was underpowered. American weapons designers concluded that an intermediate round was necessary, and recommended a small-caliber, high-velocity cartridge.
However, senior American commanders, having faced fanatical enemies and experienced major logistical problems during World War II and the Korean War, insisted that a single, powerful .30 caliber cartridge be developed, that could not only be used by the new automatic rifle but by the new general-purpose machine gun (GPMG) in concurrent development. This culminated in the development of the 7.62×51 mm NATO cartridge.
The U.S. Army then began testing several rifles to replace the obsolete M1. Springfield Armory's T44E4 and heavier T44E5 were essentially updated versions of the M1 chambered for the new 7.62 mm round, while Fabrique Nationale submitted their FN FAL as the T48. ArmaLite entered the competition late, hurriedly submitting several AR-10 prototype rifles in the fall of 1956 to the U.S. Army's Springfield Armory for testing. The AR-10 featured an innovative straight-line barrel/stock design, forged aluminum alloy receivers, and with phenolic composite stocks. It had rugged elevated sights, an oversized aluminum flash suppressor and recoil compensator, and an adjustable gas system. The final prototype featured an upper and lower receiver with the now-familiar hinge and takedown pins, and the charging handle was on top of the receiver placed inside of the carry handle. For a 7.62 mm NATO rifle, the AR-10 was incredibly lightweight at only 6.85 lb (3.11 kg) empty. Initial comments by Springfield Armory test staff were favorable, and some testers commented that the AR-10 was the best lightweight automatic rifle ever tested by the Armory. In the end, the U.S. Army chose the T44, now named the M14 rifle, which was an improved M1 Garand with a 20-round magazine and automatic fire capability. The U.S. also adopted the M60 general-purpose machine gun (GPMG). Its NATO partners adopted the FN FAL and HK G3 rifles, as well as the FN MAG and Rheinmetall MG3 GPMGs.
The first confrontations between the AK-47 and the M14 came in the early part of the Vietnam War. Battlefield reports indicated that the M14 was uncontrollable in full-auto and that soldiers could not carry enough ammunition to maintain fire superiority over the AK-47. And, while the M2 carbine offered a high rate of fire, it was under-powered and ultimately outclassed by the AK-47. A replacement was needed: a medium between the traditional preference for high-powered rifles such as the M14, and the lightweight firepower of the M2 Carbine.
As a result, the Army was forced to reconsider a 1957 request by General Willard G. Wyman, commander of the U.S. Continental Army Command (CONARC) to develop a .223-inch caliber (5.56 mm) select-fire rifle weighing 6 lb (2.7 kg) when loaded with a 20-round magazine. The 5.56 mm round had to penetrate a standard U.S. helmet at 500 yards (460 meters) and retain a velocity over the speed of sound while matching or exceeding the wounding ability of the .30 Carbine cartridge.
This request ultimately resulted in the development of a scaled-down version of the Armalite AR-10, named the ArmaLite AR-15. The AR-15 was first revealed by Eugene Stoner at Fort Benning in May 1957. The AR-15 used .22-caliber bullets, which destabilized when they hit a human body, as opposed to the .30 round, which typically passed through in a straight line. The smaller caliber meant that it could be controlled in autofire due to the reduced bolt thrust and free recoil impulse. Being almost one-third the weight of the .30 meant that the soldier could sustain fire for longer with the same load. Due to design innovations, the AR-15 could fire 600 to 700 rounds a minute with an extremely low jamming rate. Parts were stamped out, not hand-machined, so they could be mass-produced, and the stock was plastic to reduce weight.
In 1958, the Army's Combat Developments Experimentation Command ran experiments with small squads in combat situations using the M14, AR-15, and another rifle designed by Winchester. The resulting study recommended adopting a lightweight rifle like the AR-15. In response, the Army declared that all rifles and machine guns should use the same ammunition, and ordered full production of the M-14. However, advocates for the AR-15 gained the attention of Air Force Chief of Staff General Curtis LeMay. After testing the AR-15 with the ammunition manufactured by Remington that Armalite and Colt recommended, the Air Force declared that the AR-15 was its 'standard model' and ordered 8,500 rifles and 8.5 million rounds. Advocates for the AR-15 in the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency acquired 1,000 Air Force AR-15s and shipped them to be tested by the Army of the Republic of Vietnam (ARVN). The South Vietnam soldiers issued glowing reports of the weapon's reliability, recording zero broken parts while firing 80,000 rounds in one stage of testing, and requiring only two replacement parts for the 1,000 weapons over the entire course of testing. The report of the experiment recommended that the U.S. provide the AR-15 as the standard rifle of the ARVN, but Admiral Harry Felt, then Commander in Chief of Pacific Forces, rejected the recommendations on the advice of the U.S. Army.
Throughout 1962 and 1963, the U.S. military extensively tested the AR-15. Positive evaluations emphasized its lightness, "lethality", and reliability. However, the Army Materiel Command criticized its inaccuracy at longer ranges and lack of penetrating power at higher ranges. In early 1963, the U.S. Special Forces asked and was given permission, to make the AR-15 its standard weapon. Other users included Army Airborne units in Vietnam and some units affiliated with the Central Intelligence Agency. As more units adopted the AR-15, Secretary of the Army Cyrus Vance ordered an investigation into why the weapon had been rejected by the Army. The resulting report found that Army Materiel Command had rigged the previous tests, selecting tests that would favor the M14 and choosing match grade M14s to compete against AR-15s out of the box. At this point, the bureaucratic battle lines were well-defined, with the Army ordnance agencies opposed to the AR-15 and the Air Force and civilian leadership of the Defense Department in favor.
For those idiots who do not get the joke, the joke is: "As an American I know fucking everything about guns".
My grandfather (served during the Vietnam war) told me that the M16's were called "jamming Jennies" due to how often the rifle would get jammed. He called it "An unreliable piece of trash. I'd rather have my M14 back."
🤣 m16, sterling , m14 and LMG is kinda popular in my region though.
Lastest is M4A1 with grenade launcher is on high demand 🤣
I want one, and I'm not one about the gun.

I just really liked that she maintained good trigger discipline.
This has to be the most incredible thing I have seen and heard in my entire life.
There are some mild inaccuracies here. For a lot of reasons, initially the M-16 rifle was pretty unpopular with the US soldiers ordered to turn in their (admittedly 6 years older) M-14 rifles. Initially both the M-16 and the M-14 used 20 round magazines so there was no fire-power advantage. The M-16 was initially issued without any cleaning kits or oil and the first cartridges issued with the M-16 had, as a cost saving measure, been loaded with old gun powder types left over from WW2 and not well suited to the smaller bore diameter of the M-16. The combination of no easy way to clean or lubricate the rifle and the wrong powder type being used (leaving an acidic, hydroscopic, residue inside the barrel and gun action) soon resulted in carbon build up, bore corrosion, and many resulting jams and misfires during combat. With open sights the M-16 was combat effective to about 300 yards while the open sighted M-14 was considered combat effective to about 450 yards. Yes, the M-16 bullet was faster, but that did not mean it was more effective at dropping an opponent. If nothing else the .30 caliber bullet of the M-14 made a bigger hole in an opponent than did the smaller .22 diameter M-16 bullet. A larger hole meant a greater chance of damaging a vital organ or nerve cluster while also often insuring more blood loss. The statement of greater lethality at longer ranges for an M-16 bullet is simply not true. Because the M-14 bullet was almost 3 times as heavy, it retained greater inertia and delivered more kinetic energy on the target at longer ranges.than a bullet from the M-16 ever could. There is a reason the M-21 sniper rifle remained in service until the end of the Vietnam conflict. Likewise the small light weight bullet of the M-16 did not penetrate jungle foliage as easily as the heavier bullet of the M-14 did. Many US Army units initially resisted accepting the M-16 for as long as they dared. Several commanders had to be threatened with court martial until the acquiesced and swapped their M-14s for the newer bug filled M-16s.
In the early part of the conflict the Viet Cong used whatever weapon they could find. Many used WW2 weapons of various origins, and of course weapons captured from French units and SKS carbines. There were also multiple incidents of attacks on US forces with home made firearms. AK-47s were far more common amongst the North Vietnamese Regular Army than they were amongst the Viet Cong, at least until the Tet Offensive. Only after the Tet Offensive was the AK-47 the most common enemy weapon encountered.
By the late 1960s most of the teething problems of the M-16 had been solved. Cleaning kits and oil were issued. The ammunition propellant was changed to one more suitable for that gun's design. Early 30 round magazines were beginning to enter the supply pipeline. There were two main reasons the M-16 had remained in service that long. The gun was much cheaper to make than was the M-14, and the lighter weight of the gun and the weaker recoiling ammunition made it less punishing to allied ARVN troops who were dependent upon American supplied weaponry. Meanwhile production of the M-16 continued and soon the M-14s in Europe and later CONUS began to turn in their M-14s for the cheaper, lighter M-16. My own Army reserve unit still had M-14s and only 1 M16 (for 'show and tell' familiarization) in our inventory in 1973 when I moved on.
I sold my civilian M-14 (MiA NM) back in 2016 but it remains one of the best battle rifles ever made. Many M-14s are still in use in different units. That said, I also own a Colt M4 and an AK variant and I would describe any comparison between them as a comparison of apples and oranges. Two different approaches to the same outcome.
I don’t think I’ve ever liked and subbed so fast.
That buffer spring noise at 2:35 brought back some memories.
She is holding the m16 in an AK stance. You can tell by the way that her right elbow is pointed out and far from the gun whereas the m16 stance the elbow is often lower and closer to the shooter.
It's because even Vietnamese girls get trained to use the ak in school in case of war. So that's why they are only used to holding the ak correctly.
Love the use of the battlefield Vietnam theme
in terms of speed and accuracy - M16 👍
in terms of firepower - AK47 👍
My grandfather was a soldier in the resistance war against America and now my grandfather has spent nearly 50 years since the war.
1:35 -- the NVA used a mix of AK-47 and SKS, eventually phasing out the SKS as PRC production of the Kalashnikov ramped up. The VM and VC primarily used the SKS, and a lot of these were brought back as war trophies until Hanoi sent the VC to be demolished in the Tet Offensive (thus eliminating their one potential political rival). 2:20 -- actually, the 7.62 is more accurate and lethal at long range than the 5.56. The 5.56 loses energy rapidly because of the lower mass.
True, they opted for the 5.56 because of ammo volume and the close quarters fighting of the jungle. Both weapons are phenomenal, and great at different jobs. If Europe had been our battle field in WW3 I do believe they would have stayed with the M-14. I prefer the .308, and am thinking about getting an AR-10 soon, because of range and accuracy.
I didn't know the VC was a political rival to the North.
@@filippocorti6760 In "Progressive" politics, ranging from simple Socialism to full Communism, ANY other group is a rival for political power, especially if they are armed and combat-active. The Viet Cong (and their Viet Minh forerunners) were irregular forces who had been fighting the Japanese and later the French, before there WAS a North Viet Nam, while the NVA was a regular military arm of the North.
During the Tet Offensive, Hanoi pushed the VC into the front of attacks against strong points in the Republic. VC losses were so high that the Viet Cong effectively ceased to exist as a fighting force.
Rumor has it that a large number of former VC (especially leadership) came to the United States after the Fall, evading liquidation of themselves and their families.
@@SoloPilot6 I wonder if Vietnam's leadership would have liquidated them or just disarmed them and brought them into the fold. I feel skeptical the leadership would have killed them all without giving them a chance.
@@filippocorti6760 "Giving a chance" isn't a common trait in "Progressive" totalitarian regimes.

AK bắn lại XM7 của quân đội Mỹ không?
@@larryle8191xm7 chưa ra thực chiến nên không đánh giá được.
Trước mắt thì xm7 của mỹ dùng đạn mới 6,8x51mm lớn hơn đạn 5,56x45mm cũ và dài hơn đạn ak 7,62x39mm với 5,45x39mm nên thành ra xm7 mạnh hơn ak 47 và bắn xa hơn.Cấu tạo xm7 khá đơn giản so với m16 và m4 cũ dù vẫn hơi phúc tạp hơn dòng ak.Nhưng về giá thành thì dòng ak của nga rẻ hơn nhiều xm7,một phần là nga có sẵn tài nguyên để làm,phần khác là ak dùng thép dập giá rẻ còn xm7 dùng hợp kim đắt tiền nên giá cao(dù giá cao có thể là do giá thị trường dân sự nên trong quân đội sẽ rẻ hơn nhưng như thế thì mỹ nhà giàu cũng khó đỡ được lắm).

As a Vietnamese and a gun nerd, I find it both interesting and hilarious.
Ey, this used to kill our people, still, the gun was pretty rad though.

South Vietnamese ARVN? They also used the M16A1
The M16 A2...was my issue...but dang the AR15 is what I use as a Spec Merc! I love the A2 though...it's a sweet machine...hardly jams. I used it as a Ranger a lot even dropped it out of a blackhawk...we had glow sticks on ours while in sky on birds during training...so if that special moment happens..lack of sleep loose grip and falls out... we can find it. Oh boy was my sqaud leader mad that night. Lol😢😢😂😂😂 but we found it lucky! Never let that happen again! Jeeeez
I remember when I was a kid in the mid 1960s seeing the nightly report of the Vietnam War. So many killed on both sides. Hasbro came out with G.I. JOE, a military doll for boys. You could get different outfits and weapons. I guess to prepare us for war.
IF war was only used for defense, wed have no wars. Someone always has to pick a fight.
I remember those reports, too. some quantity of men killled in fighting for a hill somewhere. I had a general understanding of what it meant, but as a kid, didn't realy understand the horrible waste of human life.
All I can say is WOW very beautiful! And that is a pretty nice gun too.

Well well well, he brought the video back up
My father served Vietnam War as a member of the 7th Division(white horse) of the Korean Army. At first, he took the m1 and m1 carbine, but after a while, he replaced it with the m16. First of all, it was good because it was light, but the problem was that it was weak in durability.
I've never seen M1 Helmet straps BLUE.
The Philippines sent a contingent to the Vietnam War. 9 Filipinos died in it. Why casualties were low was because the Filipinos were mostly there for civic action and humanitarian missions.
2 things I gotta praised about this video:
1)The translation of“Vietnam War”to“chiến tranh chống Mỹ”.
I know that’s just international vs our way of calling this war,but some Vietnamese(not me)doesn’t like calling it like that,because it sounds like this is civil war to them,which of course is not.
I wouldn’t blame you(or whoever do this)if you just translate that directly to“chiến tranh Việt Nam”,but whoever do this translation(whether you,or RUclips,or whoever else)deserve my respect.
2)This video was in Vietnamese.
I don’t know if this was dubbed(using AI or other person),or you trully know Vietnamese(which I think you did after looking your mouth),but the fact that this video was in Vietnamese deserve another respect.
Although it seems that you use different ladies for your different videos,but oh well.

Trong chiến tranh Việt Nam khẩu súng này thường hay bị kẹt đạn do không phù hợp với khí hậu Việt Nam, thứ 2 là nó có nhiều chi tiết nhỏ rất khó khăn trong việc bảo dưỡng trong điều kiện tác chiến giữa rừng sâu. Không tiện dụng như AK47

The M14 kicked butt during the Vietnam War and destroyed the hell out of the VC.
Proud butt kicker of the Vietnam War.
This is great I didn't know Vietnam allowing citizens to own guns
They don't, aside from maybe hunting shotguns. She's an American.
@@kevinduong337 I dint realise she was until she spoke perfect American lol
Here in Vietnam,guns(real,Airsoft,gel blasters,Nerf,toys,…)is not allowed.
I kind of understand that we can and should ban real weapons,especially after the attack on Đắk Lắk(which can be considered terrorism),but other guns(like Airsoft,gel blasters…)shouldn’t be banned.
Sure,the best arguments I can hear is that bad guys can use it for commiting crimes,or violence agitation,but for me those aren’t the reasons why we should do that.
didnt expect her to use vietnamese but wow
You had my curiosity… now you have my attention.
And you took the background music from Battlefield Vietnam! A man of culture I see..

Im sorry but the Vietnamese language as well as SE Asian languages in general just sound so funny
I can assure you it will sound serious when you have an AK pointing at you.
Very informative video awesome and bringing the older M14 and new rifles in the video.
Please do a Vietnam-theme and cough at the end...that would make my day.
This was awesome!
