Assuming the films takes place in 1968, the year the film was produced in, only the United States Army used the the M-16. The standard United States Marine Corps rifle was the M-14. The M-16 was not accepted into service with the USMC until 1983. Correction: One, the M16A1 was officially adopted by the USMC in 1969. Spec ops may have been using it before this date. The USMC also used versions of this weapon throughout the fleet before the official adoption as it had started being adopted in 1964 before the A1 variant. The problems with the weapon were widely corrected by this time. The approximate three pounds difference in weight is noticeable when carrying these weapons around. The M16A2 was adopted in the mid eighties.
