No, the first series of M16 production were victims of ball powder residue jamming gas ports and poor chamber/bolt design tolerance. Rushed into production with zero field testing under combat conditions as one of McNamara's cost-cutting schemes, they killed a lot of Marines and grunts. Line troops were initially issued only 20-round mags for the M16, 30-rounders being reserved for special forces, who normally went for Swedish Ks, AK47s, or anything else they could get their hands on other than the POS first series M16.
