The M16 rifle was one of the most advanced infantry weapons of its time.
Yet in Vietnam, it became a symbol of systemic failure rather than innovation.
This episode examines how design assumptions, ammunition changes, and military doctrine combined to undermine the M16’s reliability during the Vietnam War.
Rather than blaming the weapon or the soldier, War Gear Archives documents how institutional decisions shaped battlefield outcomes.
Through archival evidence and technical analysis, this video explores how small design compromises led to lethal consequences—and how those lessons reshaped modern small-arms development.
War Gear Archives studies military equipment as material culture.
Each object reflects doctrine, logistics, and the realities of war.
