M16A2/A4 vs AR-15 – How Do They Compare and What's the Difference?

Too many things wrong with facts to leave it unattended. Main is nonsense about converting AR-15 to fire in full auto without extensive knowledge, equipment and parts is near impossible.

The m4a4 is mostly similar to both but it has a rail for attachments and all that

Not having a forward assist is very unusual for an AR. Have any of you ever actually looked at one? Who writes this trash?

Isn't 550 meters between 400 and 600 meters? Who writes this trash?

One is used by the army, and one is used by the quiet kid

This video is wildly inaccurate and is detrimental to anybody watching it for the purpose of gaining knowledge on firearms. We are all dumber for having watched this.

The only difference is the m4/m16 is select fire (auto/semi) and the AR-15 is just semi auto.

I play pubg and the m16a4 is not better than the m4
The m4 is the best gun in the game

I need to find a video of AR-15 shooting a .50 cal Browning. Never knew these existed.

9:33 that is just blatantly wrong, there is no “hole in a sear” ar 15 have no full auto sear, the hole you are talking about goes in the lower and it has not been closed or “left over” it is simply not ever drilled or machined into the lower by the manufacturer, because even dimpling your lower where the third hole in an m4 would be is considered illegal even if you just drill a hole and don’t do anything else, please inform yourself and stop spreading misinformation making people think that ars can be readily converted into machine guns, you would need to do a lot more than just drilling a hole and a few other modifications.

In the truest nature, ironically the American 2nd amendment really only protects the ownership of "military style" firearms for civilians.

Next video on the kalashnikov?¿? :3

Imagine getting a .50 BMG AR

This is just…..ugh …🙄 at least understand what you're talking about if youre gonna go through all this work to make a video.

As a gunsmith and collector, my brain hurts from the sheer number of mistakes. It started off really well. For the first 9 minutes, the mistakes are manageable, they're there, but they aren't consequential. But the more he went, the more wrong he got. I physically cannot handle the frustration. Did they even talk to someone who knew anything about guns? Go to a gunstore and ask!?! Or ask even an average AR15 owner.

Be careful with specifications regarding what a particular model of an AR-15 is chambered in. US Military uses 5.56x45mm NATO, which is visually identical to the .223 Remington. It would be wise to refer to the safety and owner's manual before you load the rifle, as some civilian AR-15 models are NOT meant to chamber 5.56mm NATO, as it has a higher chamber pressure than a .223 Rem. A rifle that's chambered in 5.56 can safely fire a .223, but a rifle chambered in .223 is not meant to fire 5.56. All things considered, it is unlikely that anything bad will happen, however safety is always paramount, and no one likes premature wear on an expensive piece of equipment.

Ummm where to start on the errors in this.

Gonna save everyone time. The difference is, Full Auto bolt carrier (for some), full auto sear, and third select position.

And its 5.56×45 NOT .223 Rem.
I like most in comment section could keep going but no.

PS your thumbnail photos are of the M4 not the M-16.

M16A2
“Shows an M4”

He also said the AR15 can change the round up 2 a 50 bmg 🤦🏽‍♂️ watttt

They would come out with this bs at the height of the bs surrounding our AR15s

Yo I was in the army for years and nvr knew what the forward assist did 😂

He tried

I had no idea you could get AR-15s chambered in .50 BMG (you cant)

is that a C7A1 i see? at 3:39

The difference is that it’s different

😂😂😂😂😂😂

“The AR-15 is not full auto”
People with SOTs: The future is now old man!

Did you say 50 BMG? That is wrong. But you can use 50 beowolf/express

not bad he messed up on some but he got most right

Wow…. just… wow….. Surprised that they didn't say John Browning invented the AR platform…….

This is what you get when you learn about guns on Wikipedia. Love how the .22 is bigger than the 9mm and look nothing like them at 11:26. Also the civilian fires .223. The military fires 5.56 nato. Not .223. Military is full auto and civilians are semi auto restricted.

Whoever made this video is very confused.

Who’s going to tell him that the m16 is the ar15?

AR15s can't shoot. 50 BMG it can shoot a .50 Beowulf if modified. The story of the forward assist is also off, Stoner thought they were dumb and only added it due to military requirements.

Everyone knows that's AR stands for ASSAULT RIFLE
15 STANDS FOR THE 15 COLONIES
THATS RIGHT! IT WASNT 13 WAKE UP! THE OTHER 2 WERE UNDERGROUND SOCIETIES OF QUAKERS THAT NOW ARE THE UNSEEN HAND THE TRUE 1%

AR 10,

Did I do it right?

Quick answer
Ar-15 is made for civilians and it's only semi automatic, that's it

The spent gasses push the bullet out of the extractor? Then why does my bolt have an EJECTOR? And am I making tiny explosions every time I pull the charging handle then?

let's see who has some knowledge the whats safer a m240b with the bolt locked to the rear or m240b with the bolt forward. Ammo on the feed tray and safety is off.

11:20 A .50 BMG? Did they get this info from Sheila Jackson Lee?
