Bullets being fired along with the casings were used for a better illustration of different caliber rounds... Thanks for pointing out that the casing is ejected after firing! 😉

0:00 that is one of the worst rendered M16 I've ever seen! 0:50 Gewehr 43 posing as M2 carbine 1:15 AR-10 magazine is on backwards 2:51 Bullet fired with a casing attached 3:06 (continues throughout the entire video) Out-of-period AR-15 variant with optics rails and adjustable stock, also mag wrong way 3:08 That's a pistol round, also shell casing still attached 3:16 *sigh* Does anyone at Infographics know how firearms work?! 3:42 upper and lower receiver and grip shown as being manufactured together 5:17 FINALLY a proper AR-16/M16 graphic. Too bad the ejection port is on the wrong side 5:33 5:41 9:28 Modern soldiers posing as 60's soldiers 6:23 Is he cycling the M14 after each shot like a bolt-action rifle?! 6:41 Russian GP-25 grenade launcher on the M16 with a bayonet attached under it 7:46 a whole bunch of different guns in a pile and only one of them is an M16 and even that is a later design A2 8:00 (goes on throughout the video) M4A1 posing as M16 8:18 That's not an M16A1 9:45 Those are both M4:s One is just slightly better drawn than the other

"Ditching weapon for Ak47" welcome to Counter-Strike

2:53 "A special rifle designed to shoot both the bullet AND the casing"

6:26 sad how California made that poor soldier convert his m14 to bolt action

Did anyone catch the fact he said the jungles of South America when he should of said jungles of Southeast Asia

Infographics: let's make a video about the M16 Comments: i'm about to end this man's whole career.

I love how the animator thinks the m14 is a bolt action XD

2:51 thats not how guns work my friends.

Bullets fired with the Shells 😂 this is what i thought when i was 7 years old

Fun Fact: “AR” stands for “ARmalite” (or “Augmented Reality”), not “Assault Rifle”. Also, bullets leaving the barrel don’t look like that...

2:51 "Plus, we fire the whole bullet. That's 65% more bullet, per bullet." - Cave Johnson

3:19 no one holds/aims a gun like that. Sitting on the shoulder like it’s a panzerschreck

M16 is stamped? AR-15 is fully automatic? Casings flying out the barrel? Tons of misinformation.

Infographics: We fire the WHOLE bullet. Thats 15% more bullet per bullet!

1:28 I feel bad for that mag well

I remember shooting my M4 in basic over and over again. It taught me to trust my rifle, you be surprised how reliable it is, the only times it has jammed was due to collective amounts of wet sand getting stuffed up in the chamber due to hours of training day after day in the field, and even yet is fairly easy to clean , usually the problem lies at the star chamber (rip for double feeding rounds). Even as reliable as the M4 is I wish it were a bit more debri resistant, after getting into prone position multiple times and low crawling the M4 jams frequently due to the harsh sand getting stuffed up in it slowly.

"5.56 rounds" shows 45acp pistol rounds

3:40 A lot of people missed this. Nearly all components of an AR are milled. Definitely NOT stamped.

Cave Johnson: We fire the WHOLE bullet. That's 65% more bullet, per bullet.

4:40 is it just me the firing sound sounds like clicking old iPhone’s home button🤣🤣

Puts GP-25 AK grenade launcher on AR-15 that's actually an M16, then puts a bayonet on the grenade launcher whyyy

Colt: For the M16 to work properly, use this clean burning gunpowder. U.S: Naa we got a surplus of M1 Garand gunpowder.

10:23 “The M16 is slowly being phased out across the US Military in favor of the M4.” *proceeds to swap M4 for CAR-15*

9:43 those m16's look like M4A2 CARBINE'S

Does the animator know anything about guns?

So many errors in this video 🤦🏽‍♂️. needs to be reuploaded

2:53 " eating banana with its cover " LOL

0:10 "Oh! I remember committing war crimes with this! It's been so long..."

Did they just say m2 carbines for long ranges?! That’s not exactly what carbines are made for 🤣.

This video has so much misinformation.

I fired the M 16 A2 while I was in from 2000 -2005 it really was a great rifle accurate up to 500 meters on open sites and as long as you maintained it it would never jam. And I find it funny people that say the 7.62 is a harder hitting caliber than the 5.56 any video you see on the 2 rounds hitting ballistec gel shows that the 5.56 causes much more internal damage with its velocity

3:20 mans has stock over his shoulder 😂

This is wrong. The army got M16s not the AR-15s. The AR-15 is a civilian based weapon of the M16 that and has never been used in the any military combat. Not the same thing

After doing 13 years in the Army, I found the M-16A1 & A2 models very reliable. I started off with the A1 in 1985 when I went to basic training, OSUT, MOS 19D10. The A1 never gave me problems while on field problems. I first got the A2 at my second duty station in Korea (ROK). We were moved up to relieve the infantry for a couple of days so they could get some rest. We had to qualify with the A2 before we went on patrol, I was very impressed with the new round for the A2 over that for the A1, a little bit more kick but very accurate.

I like how the round appears to still be in the casing at 2:51.

Every one gangsta t'ill someone adds a launcher to their m16

I haven’t seen so much misinformation since I watched the infographic show Oh wait

4:04 "Could be produced nearly anywhere." Right. Like, at a nuclear power plant or water treatment plant, if we are to believe the graphics.

We use to get excited when we’d get an M4 checked out to us. Mostly for the collapsable buttstock slightly more comfortable essentially the same weapon as the M16A1

Ahhh Modern Warfare days. Red dot was all you needed tbh.

Never knew m14s were bolt action... 🤔

This video talks about the evolution of the M16 AR-15 pattern of rifles yet I never once heard "Eugene Stoner", "James Sullivan", "Direct Impingement/Inward Piston", "Multi-Lug Johnson style rotating bolt", and didn't even mention the dust cover over the ejection port. And not to mention that most pictures of the M16 in this video are basically M4s or CAR-15s that came later on.

3:03 ah yes the entire round, casing and all was fired out of the gun.

Infographics, you usually do a much better job than this guys. Too many errors

From a soldier who uses the m16 regularly, if cleaned properly it's very reliable.

6:26 A few mistakes: M14 rifles are NOT bolt action A much more common misconception (tho not shown in vid, more in games) M14 rifles are only Semi automatic NO that is wrong as it can fire full auto but is harder to control

The surprised pikachu soldier face in the thumbnail never gets old XD

3:09 ummm.... any person who has even the slightest knowledge of guns, knows how wrong this is...

Infographics Show? More like Misinfographics Show.

8:00 me every time i have a nerf war i get the handicapped gun. Lol

6:23 why is no one talking about the M14 being used as bolt action?

It'd be more controllable if the people in your animation actually shouldered the rifles

1:40 Batman: “WHERE IS THE TRIGGER?!”

2:51 bru the shell of the bullet is supposed to come out of the shell ejection not the barrel just the tip of the bullet comes out the barrel the rest comes out of the slide

I thought this was about my Model M16 cordless nail gun.

To any non gun people here, The AR-15 of today which is mostly seen in civilian hands isn't select fire like what the military has. also, it's not an Assault Rifle under military terms.

“As lethally accurate as the m2 carbine” oh infographics how I love you, brought to you by people who have never shot guns

6:16 that guy doesn’t know how to use a stock, does he?

I can’t even begin to count the amount of errors in this video.

This is the most innacurate weapons video ever made

M2 carbine accurate at long ranges? pah!

5:16 puts up a image if an M16 w/ the label AR-15 over head. The army was issued the M16 if I'm not mistaken by the title of your video. The AR-15 is a civilian variant of the M16. This channel is truly the Wikipedia of youtube.

6:56 aka forward assist

Bruh...... 1: Shell casings stay with the rifle and only the bullet flies down range 2: AR-15/M-16 receivers are machined out of aluminum, not stamped

this gun is so iconic, almost on par with the ak almost

Thanks for the video! Although there were some inaccuracies as others have pointed out, I did enjoy it.

Air Force Security Police. Was issued an M16 (no forward assist) for the first time in 1982. Never felt the lack of a forward assist; never had a malfunction. Shot Expert Marksman every single time, to include the very first time in basic training. Loved the weapon. Own several semiautomatic only AR15s.

Subs are for the Japanese dude who continue to fight WWII for thirty years. Just so you know..

The Ar-15 is a civilian versions of the M16. The M16 also jamed very often.

I feel like I’ve learned more history on the infographics show than my actual history class

The very first weapon I ever fired was my late father's AR-15, which was patterned after the M16A2 minus the 3-round burst mode. He not only taught me how to shoot it, but how to clean and maintain it as well. I got to where I could hit within an inch of a dead-center bulls-eye at 100 yards on an outdoor range.

Lol the bullet isn’t fired while still in the casing. The casing is ejected😂

My uncle served in Vietnam he took his m-16 apart an sent it home an when he returned state side , he put it back together! He said it was an is his bestfriend for life . Thanks infographics

My daily-carry M-16 back in the 80s was a first gen 3-prong with no forward assist. It had all new internals. It worked extremely well. I never had a misfire at the range.

You forgot to mention the M16A2 which had a burst firing style and was believed to have saved ammo reserves used by soldiers

"Accurate at long ranges like the M2 carbine" because the M2 and M1 carbines were made to be precision long range weapons and not a replacement for the 1911 for some troops.

The AR-15 was never put in service

8:20 Isn t that m4?

6:43 Did he just attach a bayonet to a grenade launcher?

I think the Info graphics Show should be a real TV show hosted live in all countries. It really helps you to learn you things in a cartoony, fun way. Love the videos. Keep it up everyone!

*I come to think about “Siphon Filter”, every time I see M16*

Now the M4 has a younger brother too. The HK416. The M14 has 2 younger brothers, the AC-556 Mini 14 and the MK14 EBR.

Gotta love the bullet firing in the shell.

For some reason the subtitles are inaccurate And they are telling a story of a japanese man

Whoever did the illustrations in the video may have had an extra chromosome.

To say that the M16 jams would be a understatement. My M16A1 jammed too many times.

It’s more of like M16A4. (The Burst Edition) And M4A1. (The automatic version.)

the fbi might be questioning your search history lol

2:50 That's not how it works! That's not how any of this works!

AR stands for Always Rock-n-roll. XD

I feel like many veterans here would probably remember holding an M16 with the old-school "triangle" shaped handguard. These were most common back in the Vietnam War.

"Jungles of South America"?

10% of comments: wow AR-15 legendary 90%: BULLETS DONT FIRE LIKE THAT I WILL SUE YOU

Idk why but the stock being above the shoulder irritates me.

2:50 I bet the animator knows about gun pretty well.

M16a1 first full automatic weapon Iv fired. But I have more experience with m14 and the m4

I loved my M-16A2 I had in basic/ait but I loved my M4 I had in Iraq more

Love the m16 and its caliber! Cant imagine it being replaced by any rifle

According to Forgotten Weapons the forward assist didn’t actually have anything to do with its reliability or perceived reliability. He said the Army leadership wanted it because the M1 and M14 both had something for the soldier to push on, and it might be comforting for them to have. That’s supported by what I found on Wikipedia and some other sources. It’s funny how many designs and procedures persist just because ‘that’s the way it was before’ or ‘that’s how we’ve always done it’
