The M-16 is a staple weapon in the Syphon Filter series in general. It is one of the more favored guns among the CBDC, Black Baton and The Agency, often found on the field wielded by many soldiers. Overall it is a dependable weapon with a great magazine size that means it can take down multiple soldiers before running out. The ammo is also plentiful and easy to find due to many opponents using the same weapon.
Description
This weapon is lightweight, accurate, and has very low recoil. The preeminent assault rifle in the world, it was developed by the US Army in 1965, and has since become a mainstay for armed forces, police, and personal defense enthusiasts.
-Description from Syphon Filter
This is a greatly improved model over its predecessor, although it still has a high failure rate when used in extreme environmental conditions. It is controllable and accurate during semi auto fire and has been the main infantry weapon of the US and other countries for several decades. Comparisons are often made between the M16 and the Russian AK-47. While the AK has better stopping power and functions reliably in extreme environments, it cannot stand up to the M16's precision accuracy at long ranges.
-Description from Syphon Filter: The Omega Strain
Syphon Filter
The M-16 is used by CBDC personnel who defend Georgia Street during Black Baton's assault. Gabe Logan can find and use such a weapon in said conflict.
Syphon Filter 2
The M-16 is used by Agency Spooks during the search for the data discs and USAF personnel when Lian escapes from MacKenzie Air Force Base. It is also seen in the hands of US GI's in the second investigation of PHARCOM; it can also be used in the New York Slums.
Syphon Filter 3
This weapon can be used during the Costa Rican Incident, during Lian's investigation of Rhoemer's activities, when Gabe escorts his convoy into Afghanistan, during Lian's rescue of Elsa Weissenger, the assassination of Silvers and the Paradise Ridge event.
Syphon Filter: The Omega Strain
The M-16 can be unlocked and used in The Omega Strain.
The first version, the M16A1, fires in an automatic and single-shot fashion. The user's finger speed will determine the firing rate.
The second version, the M16A2, fires in 3-round bursts making it more effective at long range than close quarters.
A modified version, the M-16 K, is used by Andre Proust and a Jane Doe during the ALA attack on Carthage. The weapon can also be acquired when recovering Imani Grey's remains.
Syphon Filter: Dark Mirror
The M-16 can again be unlocked and used in Dark Mirror, but it now fires 3-round bursts that make it more effective at long-range combat than close quarters.
Syphon Filter: Logan's Shadow
The M-16 can only be seen being used in Logan's Shadow; Gabe himself is unable to fire the weapon. Its users include Trinidad and Maggie Powers, who seem to use the M-16 K that was seen in The Omega Strain.
Advantages
- Lightweight
- Accurate (unlike the AK-47)
- Linear and little recoil
- Useful in a variety of combat engagements
Limitations
- Cannot stand up to extreme environments
- Inferior to specialist weapons in terms of effective distances
- Less damage than the AK-47
Trivia

- During the Gulf War, several US soldiers traded out their M-16's for enemy AK-47's due to the latter's feature of not jamming from sand. It was also very intimidating for the enemy to hear their own weapon being fired at themselves, and furthermore, ammunition was in great supply.
- The only game in which it cannot be used is Logan's Shadow, where it can be seen but cannot be picked up.
- It is so far the only weapon that has a grenade launcher attached to it in Logan's Shadow.
- Although its sound is that of a suppressed weapon, the M16A1 in The Omega Strain does not have this attachment.
