![]() We can't really name it as a specific weapon (because all we can really say is it's some kind of AR-15 pattern) so I figured it was better to label it as they do, in quote marks, and then explain that it isn't what they say it is. Yeah, the problem with doing that here is you'd need about fifteen images of various gun bits. Sorry, I'm not trying to be mean or anything. 45, and a Makarov share the same ammo! I still think they just mixed the M16 and AR-15's names together, didn't you say a similar thing about the DSG-1 in Crysis. I remember some Amins said something along the lines of: (regarding video games) "On IMFDB we identify firearms based off their appearance, not what the developers/creators might call them", And I severely doubt the developers wanted to make it a AR-16 just because it use 7.62x51mm, I don't that ever crossed their minds. Looks like if you took that, made it so the bottom of it was flat almost the entire length with a steep diagonal step at the back, then added the holes from the actual AR-16 handguard to it (with one extra one). Oh and to add to the confusion, it also has a HK front sight. :\ - Mr. What exactly is "AR-18-like about it? Cus' it's differently not the handguards, look at this ] and look carefully at the above pic they look nothing alike. Regardless, I stand by the label: it's a quote-unquote AR-16, because we can't really put a specific name to it so we might as well stick to what they call it. Having "Armalite" in the name is curiously specific and suggests someone on the team was aware there actually was an AR-16, even if they didn't try to make the game gun look like it in the slightest. I'm kinda guessing they modeled the weapon first, then said "what's an AR-15-like rifle that shoots 7.62mm NATO" and picked the name that way.
