Every Viet-Nam combat veteran knows that the M16 is a POS in combat. I've never used the M4 in combat but it looks like an "accessorized" M16. Maybe it has been fashion designers that have made the decisions regarding our combat weapons.

Not all of us ! As a 4th Div grunt I carried a lot of different weapons on different missions, including shotguns , M3 grease guns, M79 thumpers, M60s, XM21's, CAR 15's and supressed AR's and the more experience I gathered the more I came to appreciate the standard M16.
