The M16A4 is a 3-round burst assault rifle in Counter-Strike Online, exclusive to the Counter-Terrorists. Its Terrorist counterpart is the AN-94.
Overview
The M16A4 is an assault rifle which only fires in 3-round burst. It has medium accuracy and does higher damage than the AN-94 due to its caliber being 5.56 NATO and its 3-round bursts shooting mode. It has very fast reload for its class.
In Taiwan/Hong Kong region, this weapon becomes a default weapon in all player's inventories after the Free Update. In other regions, they only removed the level restriction
Advantages
- Decent accuracy
- Cheap price
- Fast reload
- Free (Taiwan/Hong Kong region)
Disadvantages
- Heavy weight
- Not suitable for close-quarter combat due to its weight and low rate of fire

Tips
- Always try to aim for the head in close-quarter combat, otherwise you will get killed due to its burst-fire disadvantage.
- For middle-range combat, aim at the chest, the bullets might hit the enemies' head.
- For long-range combat, aim for the gut area.

Trivia
- The Colt logo can be clearly seen on the lower receiver while reloading.
- This rifle can still be presented to players below the designated level, and can be bought but cannot be used until the level restriction is met.
- Before the Free Update patch, this weapon used to have level restriction. The players must achieve the required level (depending on each region) or higher to purchase it. It is also one of the first weapons which has a level restriction, alongside AN-94.
- For Taiwan/Hong Kong region, this weapon now becomes default after the Free Update.
- Its drawing animation is based on the M4A1 in Condition Zero.
