M16

Description

The M16 is one of the few carbines in Arena Breakout: Infinite that can actually be found in raids. The weapon uses 5.56×45 mm rounds and is highly effective at medium and long distances, but it has an important limitation — it lacks a fully automatic firing mode.

Instead, the M16 offers a semi-auto mode and 3-round burst firing. This is why most players prefer to fire single shots ("tapping"), which allows for better recoil control and ammunition conservation. The 3-round burst can be useful in close combat but is used noticeably less often.

In terms of cost, the M16 is in the mid-price segment and does not require expensive assembly. However, the absence of automatic fire makes the carbine less versatile compared to classic assault rifles of the same caliber.
