Archived [ARCHIVED THREAD] - Barrel twist rate on the M16A1 rifle?
Posted: 1/13/2006 8:01:27 AM EDT
What was the twist rate on the M16A1 rifle?  My buddy insists it was 1:12, but I want to check and find out.  Is there a link where I can read about the original specifications?

Thanks,

Dave

very early M16s were 1:14 but the M16A1 was 1:12
