A Black Ops Legend has reawoken and has risen like Smaug - back for vengeance. The M16 is a beast with near-mythical powers when wielded by the right player. Akin to King Arthur and Excalibur, the M16 can make players into a Knight of The Round Table, as it possesses deadly accuracy and power. 

Looming in the Tactical Rifle section, the M16 may run under some players' radars, but do not sleep on this weapon. We have compiled the best M16 class & attachments in Call Of DutyBlack Ops Cold War.

BEST M16 CLASS FOR MULTIPLAYER

With a powerful three-round burst, on Multiplayer, you may want to increase the fire rate and movement speed. If the burst connects with the chest or head you’ll likely be getting kills with every feather of your trigger. 

  • Barrel - 15.9” Strike Team
  • Muzzle - Silencer
  • Underbarrel - SFOD Speedgrip
  • Ammo - Jungle-Style Mag
  • Handle - Serpent Wrap

The barrel will increase the fire rate of each burst, which is pivotal in multiplayer in case your first shot is not on target. It will make the M16 much more forgiving and with added speed from the serpent wrap and speed grip you’ll be able to hold down multiple lanes with this weapon. Players may opt to equip an optic on this weapon at the expense of the silencer, but if you find the iron sights pleasurable then you’ll have the most success. These are the best M16 class & attachments for Black Ops Cold War.

BEST M16 CLASS FOR WARZONE

With Warzone not launching until December 10 on Black Ops Cold War, Fireteam: Dirty Bomb will be key for practice. Here the M16 will truly excel, as it can shred armour at ridiculous range. Adding more range and decreasing recoil, the M16 will likely tear up in Verdansk. 

  • Barrel - 20.5” Match Grade
  • Muzzle - Silencer
  • Underbarrel - Field Agent Foregrip
  • Ammo - SALVO 54 Round Fast Mag
  • Stock - Tactical Stock

The longer barrel will increase range whilst still adding a better rate of fire, which is complemented by the tactical stock adding aiming stability. Foregrip is mandatory again, maintaining accuracy too. With 54 bullets you will have a whopping 18 bursts, and the silencer will keep each shot off of the radar. With this blend, you’ll have the best M16 class & attachments in Black Ops Cold War to prepare for Warzone.
