The Armalite AR-15 (also known as the Colt M16) was an American gas direct action selective fire assault rifle derived from the Armalite AR-10 and designed by Eugene Stoner in response to requirements from the Infantry Board at Fort Benning for a lightweight selective fire assault rifle which could penetrate body armour or a steel helmet at 500 yards with accuracy at least as good as that of the M1 Carbine at 500 yards.
