The VFC Colt M16A2 V3 GBBR gas rifle is a realistic gas-powered airsoft rifle that accurately replicates the iconic Colt M16A2 model. Manufactured by VFC, this replica closely matches the real M16A2 in weight, feel, and recoil, delivering an authentic experience.
The development of the M16A2 began in the late 1970s at the request of the United States Marine Corps. They needed an assault rifle that was more reliable and durable than the M16A1 used during the Vietnam War. The M16A2 was adopted in 1983 and featured significant improvements, such as a stronger barrel, adjustable sights, and a three-round burst mode instead of full-auto fire. The rifle quickly became the standard for the U.S. military and saw extensive use during the Cold War and the Gulf War.
The M16A2 served as the basis for later M16 variants, such as the M16A3 and M16A4.
