M16 is one of the most known firearms in the history of all weapons as it has had countless appearances in the history of gaming, movies, TV shows, and more. Of course, Activision has added the famous M16 to the Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 Open Beta, and it is just one of many cool historically known weapons that you can unlock in CoD MW2.

If you want to obtain the M16, you need to level up the guns in the “tree” that precedes the M16. When you head out to your loadout, you should select the M4, and then, under it, you will see the “Gunsmith” option. Then, at the top of the screen, you will see the “Progression” card which you should open.
You will immediately notice that getting the M16 is related to the progression of the M4 and the .556 Icarus, and yes, this is correct. You will need to level up the M4 until the .556 Icarus is unlocked for you. Then, you need to level up the .556 Icarus until you unlock the M16 (levels are displayed in the game and they are subject to change, this is beta after all).
