Custom KYDEX® Holsters for the M-16

The M-16, an iconic American rifle, has served as the standard infantry weapon for the U.S. military for decades. Its lightweight design, select-fire capability, and high-velocity 5.56mm cartridge make it a formidable weapon on the battlefield. The M-16’s adoption marked a shift towards smaller-caliber, high-velocity ammunition, offering soldiers improved accuracy and increased ammunition capacity. Though its early iterations faced some reliability issues, subsequent improvements and modifications have solidified its reputation as a dependable and effective firearm. The M-16’s legacy continues to influence modern rifle designs, and it remains a symbol of American military power and innovation.
