A new, just-out-of-the-box M16A2 will turn in 1 MOA (5-inch groups at 500 yards). Well that is a good sign. We still had the old M16A1 (still had the triangular forestock) and had not yet received the new A2s. It was mid 80's and the M16A1s were getting rather worn. I'd like to think that the A2's were made better - hopefully they didn't rattle as much.

They didn't rattle much. Unfortunately, the takedown pins were put in so tightly that you needed a punch and a big mallet to field-strip them for the first six months...
