Yes, a year in the jungle or a year in the sandbox put a real premium on reliability under all environmental conditions. It also makes a difference if you are mounted or dismounted. I am not 100% certain a 7-3/4 pound M4 is better than a 6-1/2 pound M16A1 if the prime mover has to walk everywhere they go with everything on their back.

Bump fire mag dump on sunny day range toys, cheap is fine.
