I have to disagree. The M-16 is a "Main Battle Rifle" and is not an "Assault Rifle". I bet most anti-gunners only see the black color. The US military does not carry a listing for "Assault Rifle". They can assault an enemy with anything from the 5.56 mm/M-16 caliber thru the thermo nuclear bomb. They are all offensive weapons. Some are pretty good defensive weapons too.
