Burst maximum effective rate of fire?!?!? never heard of that, but there is sustained, rapid and cyclic Maximum effective range is 550m WTF is all these ranges in the thousands? Maybe they mean maximum range??? some of the wording is F'd up it also says to check the chamber after immidiate action, unless I'm totally lost, you only check the chamber during REMEDIAL action hence the "O" for observe in sports. tap rack bang is immediate action. |

Scored a 24, can't believe I remember the military knowledge stuff. Course, it has only been 5 years since I got out. This had me a bit vexxed given the mulitple choice answers provided: What is the maximum effective range of the M16A2 rifle? I think it should read: What is the maximum The M24 Sniper System isn't even effective at the range choices given  What is used to clean the gas relief ports on the bolt carrier of an M16A2 rifle? Maybe on some other plane of existence a chamber brush can fit through the relief ports, but not in this one. Only one that I missed. |
Good points on both. Yep that is the same one I missed. I think the test writer got their terms mixed up (on several occasions). |
I hate tests
A M16A2 with Semi-Full capability is designated M16A3. Scored 23. |
Army thing, been around 20 years or so. If you didn't serve in really cold climates the only way you would have heard of it was to read the -10 (It's mentioned in the 'special climate considerations' section of the lube/maitenace chapter). Edited to Add LAW - Lubricating oil, Arctic Weapons. It is mentioned on page 28 of the -10 and page 78 (LAW is also mentioned in the notes at the begining of the -10 but it doesn't explain it till p28). |
- but i want one eventually -- i better read up
NOTE: If your rifle malfunctions, remember S-P-O-R-T-S. This key word will help you remember these actions in sequence: Slap, Pull, Observe, Release, Tap, Shoot. a. Slap upward on the magazine to make sure it is properly seated. b. Pull the charging handle all the way back. c. Observe the ejection of the case or cartridge. Look into the chamber and check for obstructions. d. Release the charging handle to feed a new round in the chamber. Do not ride the charging handle. e. Tap the forward assist. f. Shoot. If the rifle still does not fire, inspect it to determine the cause of the stoppage or malfunction and take appropriate remedial action. |

That is a civie M16A2, a military rifle in that configuration would be a M16A3 (and would not be Colt), and this is a "military" quiz. |
