Your Definition

The modernized, updated version of the AR15 platform, currently in use by the [United States] Army and [Marine Corps]. While in less numbers than the M16A2, and generally only used by frontline units, it is arguably [better than] its predecessor. The M16A4 features a picatinny rail, a railed fore grip, detachable sights, and a 1:7' rifling, rather than the 1:12' and 1:9' rifling  previous models had, which equates to better power and accuracy. The M16A4 is, [essentially], an M16A3, but with a safe/semi/3-round burst selector switch, rather than a safe/semi/fully-automatic switch.

Standard magazine capacity is 30-rounds of M855 or Mk. 262 5.56x45mm ball ammunition. It is gas-operated, with a rotating bolt. It is air-cooled, with an external, detachable magazine, peep hole sights, a forward assist, and a charging handle mounted on top of the receiver, behind the picatinny/carrying rail.

Reliability in the M16A4 is solid; one is capable of firing upwards of 1,[000] standard, ball rounds through a decently maintained rifle, with STANAG magazines, without a single jam or malfunction. While disputably not as good as the AK platform, it is a far cry from the M16(A0), and is a step up from the M16A2.
