WHAT ARE THE FIRING WEIGHTS OF THE M16?: 7.78 LB
W/20 8.48
W/30 8.79
WHAT IS THE OVERALL LENGTH OF THE M16 WEAPON?: 39 (5/8) INCHES
COMPARE THE OPERATIONAL CHARACTERISTICS OF THE M16?: 1/7 BARREL FIFLING, 3100 MUZZLE VELOCITY, 700/900 ROUNDS PER MINUTE
WHAT IS MEANT BY "SUSTAINED" RATE OF FIRE?: THE RATE OF FIRE THAT A WEAPON CAN CONTINUE TO DELIVER FOR AN INDEFINITE PERIOD WITHOUT OVERHEATING
WHAT TYPES OF AMMUNITION ARE USED IN THE M16 AND M4 SERIES WEAPONS?: BALL, TRACER, BLANK, DUMMY, AND SRTA
DEFINE MAXIMUM RANGE, MAXIMUM EFFECTIVE RANGE OF THE M16?: MAXIMUM RANGE-THE LONGES DISTANCE A PROJECTILE WILL TRAVEL WHEN FIRED FROM A WEAPON HELD AT THE OPTIMUM ANGLE.
MAXIMUM EFFECTIVE RANGE- THE GREATEST DISTANCE AT WHICH A SOLDIER MAY BE EXPECTED TO DELIVER A TARGET HIT
MAXIMUM EFFECTIVE RATE OF FIRE- THE HIGHEST RATES OF FIRE THAT CAN BE MAINTAINED AND STILL ACHIEVE TARGET HITS
COMPARE THE MAX EFFECTIVE RATES OF FIRE OF THE M16 AND M4 SERIES WEAPONS.: M16A2
SEMIAUTOMATIC 45
BURST 90
AUTOMATIC 150-200(A3)
SUSTAINED 12-15
WHAT ARE THE MAXIMUM RANGES AND THE MAXIMUM EFFECTIVE RANGES OF THE M16 AND M4 SERIES WEAPONS?: M16A2
MAXIMUM RANGE 3600
MAXIMUM EFFECTIVE RANGE
POINTCO 550
AREA 800
WHEN FIRING M200 BLANKS FROM THE M16/M4 SERIES WEAPON, WHAT DEVICE MUST BE USED TO ENSURE THE PROPER FUNCTIONING OF THE WEAPON?: BLANK ADAPTER
BLANK AMMUNITION SHOULD NOT BE FIRED TOWARD PERSONNEL WITHIN ____ FEET OR LESS FROM THE MUZZLE, BECAUSE FRAGMENTS FROM THE CLOSURE WAD OR PARTICLES OF UNBURNED PROPELLANT MIGHT INFLICT INJURY WITHIN THAT RANGE.: 20
WHAT IS A "STOCK WELD"?: A STOCK WELD, OR CHEEK-TO-STOCK WELD, PROVIDES A NATURAL LINE OF SIGHT THROUGH THE CENTER OF THE REAR SIGHT APERTURE TO THE FRONT SIGHT POST AND ON THE TARGET.
WHAT ARE THE EIGHT STEPS IN THE CYCLE OF FUNCTIONING OF THTE M16 AND M4 SERIES WEAPONS?: FEEDING, CHAMBERING, LOCKING, FIRING, UNLOCKING, EXTRACTING, EJECTING, AND COCKING
WHAT IS MEANT BY THE "STOPPAGE" OF A WEAPON?: THE FAILURE OF AN AUTOMATIC OR SEMIAUTOMATIC FIREARM TO COMPLETE THE CYCLE OF OPERATION
WHAT IS MEANT BY "IMMEDIATE ACTION"?: QUICKLY APPLYING A POSSIBLE CORRECTION TO REDUCE A STOPPAGE WITHOUT PERFORMING TROUBLESHOOTING PROCEDURES TO DETERMINE THE ACTUAL CAUSE
WHAT WORD IS COMMONLY USED TO REMEMBER THE PROCEDURE FOR APPLYING IMMEDIATE ACTION?: SPORTS
SLAP UPWARD ON THE MAGAZINE
PULL THE CHARGING HANDLE TO THE REAR
OBSERVE THE CHAMBER
RELEASE THE CHARGING HANDLE
TAP THE FORWARD ASSIST
SQUEEZE THE TRIGGER
HOW MANY TIMES SHOULD IMMEDIATE ACTION BE APPLIED TO A WEAPON?: ONLY ONCE. IF THE WEAPON STILL FAILS TO FIRE, INSPECT IT TO DETERMINE THE CAUSE OF THE STOPPAGE OR MALFUNCTION AND TAKE APPROPRIATE REMEDIAL ACTION
WHAT IS MEANT BY "REMIDEAL ACTION"?: THE CONTINUING EFFORT TO DETERMINE THE CAUSE OF A STOPPAGE OR MALFUNCTION AND TO TRY TO CLEAR THE STOPPAGE ONCE IT HAS BEEN IDENTIFIED.
WHAT IS CONSIDERED A MALFUNCTION?: A PROCEDURAL OR MECHANICAL FAILURE OF THE RIFLE, MAGAZINE, OR AMMUNITION
WHAT ARE TEH PRIMARY CATEGORIES OF MALFUNCTIONS?: 1. FAILURE TO FEED, CHAMBER, OR LOCK
2. FAILURE TO FIRE CARTRIDGE
3. FAILURE TO EXRACT
4. FAILURE TO EJECT
WHAT ARE THE FOUR BASIC FUNDAMENTALS OF RIFLE MARKSMANSHIP?: STEADY POSITION, AIMING, BREATH CONTROL, AND TRIGGER SQUEEZE
WHAT ARE THE TWO BASIC FIRING POSITIONS?: FOXHOLE SUPPORTED AND PRONE UNSUPPORTED
WHAT IS THE LARGER APERTURE USED FOR? UNMARKED?: FOR ENGAGING MOVING TARGETS AND FOR ENGAGING TARGETS IN LIMITED VISIBILITY; FOR NORMAL FIRING SITUATIONS, ZEROING, AND WITH THE ELEVATION KNOB FOR TARGET DISTANCES UP TO 800 METERS (600 MEETERS FOR M16A4 AND M4)
DESCRIBE THE PROPER PROCEDURE FOR MECHANICALLY ZEROING THE M16 RIFLE: 1. ADJUST THE FRONT SIGHT POST UP AND DOWN
2. ADJUST THE ELEVATION KNOB COUNTERCLOCKWISE
3. POSITION THE APERTURES SO THE UNMARKED APERTURE IS UP AND THE 0-200 METER APERTURE IS DOWN.
4.ROTATE WINDAGE KNOB TO ALIGN THE INDEX MARK ON THE 0-200 METER APERTURE WITH THE LONG CENTER INDEX LINE ON THE REAR SIGHT ASSEMBLY.
EXPLAIN HOW TO PLACE THE INITIAL SIGHT SETTING ON THE M16A2/A3 RIFLE WHEN BATTLESIGHT ZEROING USING TARGETS AT 25 METERS/: THE ADJUSTMENTS ARE THE SAME AS FOR MECHANICAL ZERO, EXCEPT THAT YOU TURN THE ELEVATON KNOB ONE CLICK CLOCKWISE (ONE CLICK PAST THE 8/3 MARK)
WHAT IS MEANT BY A "NATURAL POINT OF AIM"?: THE NATURAL POINT OF AIM IS A BODY-RIFLE-TARGET ALIGNMENT THAT REQUIRES MINIMAL MUSCULAR SUPPORT AND EFFORT. aS THE RIFLE FIRES, MUSCLES TEND TO RELAX, CAUSING THE FRONT SIGHT TO MOVE TOWARD THE POINT OF AIM TO THE CENTER OF THE TARGET EXPOSURE AREA.
WHAT ARE THE STANDARDS FOR ZEROING AN M16 AND M4 SERIES WEAPONS?: USING 18 ROUNDS OR LESS, FIRE FIVE OUT OF SIX ROUNDS IN TWO CONSECUTIVE SHOT GROUPS WITHIN A 4 CM CIRCLE.
WHAT ARE THE QUALIFICATION STANDARDS FOR A RECORD FIRE 25 METER TARGETS: EXPERT 38-40
SHARPSHOOTER 32-38
MARKSMAN 26-32
UNQUALIFIED 25-BELOW
PROPER MAINTENANCE OF THE M16 AND M4 SERIES WEAPONS INCLUDES WHAT FIVE STEMS?: CLEAR, DISASSEMBLE, INSPECT, CLEAN & LUBRICATE, ASSEMBLE
WHAT DOES "CLP" SAND FOR AND HOW DOES IT WORK?: CLEANER, LUBRICANT, PRESERVATIVE
THE FIRST CONSIDERATION WHEN HANDLING ANY WEAPON IS TO DO WHAT?: CLEAR IT!
