Had heard all kind of bad stories about M16, especially in the early Vietnam problem, my own experience was my favorite M1 Garand and later in combat my 9mm Uzi, that was not the US army of course.
When my son ]US army medic[ came back in one piece from Iraq, he told me wonders about his M16, and the way it saved lives.
Currently I am serving in the Texas military forces, we were giving the chance to participate in a shooting competition with M9 ]Beretta FS92[ and/or M16 ]AR15[ conforming to very strict limitations, everything had to be US military standard, or close, AR15 for us ]Texas State Guard[, M16 for members of the Texas National Guard, FS92 for us M9 for TXNG etc.
I was recommended my DPMS AR15 by Cheaper then Dirt and bought one, I have been amazed by it''s reliability and accuracy, so far I have shot about 4000 rounds, from 100 to 800 yards without a single miss feed, and my grouping with standard ]commercial[ ammo has been tighter then my ]custom[ M1 Garand at same distances.
This is one amazing rifle, and Panther arms, produces one heck of a gun.
