Strategies
In close quarters, the M416 has better DPS than most other common primary-class automatic weapons. Nevertheless, it is still easily beaten by Shotguns and SMGs.

At longer ranges, the M416 partially makes up for its inaccuracy with its high muzzle velocity. It has a slightly higher DPS than the AK-47.

Trivia

 * Before the Sun out Guns out Update the M416 was called the HK416. This is also the case for the Glock 18C (Shortened to G18C).
 * Although it is now called the M416, it's internal ID is still "hk416"
 * The name M416 is also used in place of the HK416 in video game franchises such as Player Unknown's Battlegrounds and the Battlefield series. These changes were done due to copyright reasons (Heckler and Koch is the name of a real life German armament company).
 * The real-life HK416 was made by Heckler & Koch as an improved version of the M4A1. In fact, it was originally called the "HK M4" by Heckler & Koch, but the name was dropped due to a copyright dispute.
 * In real-life, the M416 is more accurate than its rival, the AK-47. However, this is not reflected in-game, due to the M416 representing the HK416, having been changed due to copyright.

Countering

 * The M416 has a DPS higher than the AK-47 and has the highest fire rate of all the Assault Rifles and LMGs meaning that its similar to SMGs. To counter this weapon, make your opponent spread the bullets by moving around, while shooting at them. Keep in mind that it takes 10 bullets to kill a player since 9 bullets only do 99 damage, leaving your enemy with 1 health.
