M16

Summary
The M16 is a rapid-fire weapon that can shelve out high damage in a few seconds. It is useful at both long and medium ranges, as the bullets don't spread out that much. However, it is a bit less useful up close, as the bullets will mainly hit the body, inflicting less damage than when you'd shoot at the head. Along with the AK-47 and FN-Scar, it is a more powerful version of the Mac-10 and Uzi. Due to it's relatively low price compared to other Tier II weapons, it is a great way for players who are somewhat far into the game to rack up points and possibly survive matches more easily.

Background Story
Multiple weapon arms dealers began manufacturing this weapon en masse along with other weapons like the Auto Shotgun and AK-47 to the desperate Survivors in need of some good firearms. With its high damage output as well as the fact that it is a rapid-fire weapon, the M16 proved to be one of the most effective firearms in the battlefield. This weapon can turn a zombie horde into smithereens within a matter of seconds.

Strangely enough, some weirdo Survivor keeps pretending he's someone named "Bill" and calls this weapon the "Bill-Rifle".

Tips

 * This weapon can take out most hefty zombies in a couple of shots.
 * As this weapon is a rifle, it is pretty effective at long ranges.
 * Use this weapon to shoot at zombies that are coming after you.
 * It is not recommended to use this weapon for up-close combat, as most of your shots will hit the body of the zombie, thus inflicting lower damage on it.
 * This weapon has a relatively high clip size, being 50. Thus, you won't have to worry about making your shots count.
 * If you decide to use this weapon on a Tank, make sure you aim mainly for the head as you'll inflict the most damage there.

Trivia

 * The model of the M16 is based off the M16A2.
 * The M16 is also known as the Assault Rifle by some and more affectionately as the "Bill-Rifle" by Shisor.
 * The M16 is the cheapest Tier II weapon in the game, costing only 13,000 Points.
 * That's still pretty expensive for beginners, but still cheap when compared to the other Tier II weapons.
