While the performance of most weapons in the arsenal is hindered by a lack of mobility, the low mobility of the M16 actually makes it incredibly steady when firing.

With moderate levels of recoil, it can be tricky to control which can prove problematic if you’re aiming for the head of an undead opponent.

M16 Cold War Zombies Attachments

This set of attachments is perfect for decimating the undead:

  • 16.3” Titanium (Barrel)
  • Infiltrator Grip (Underbarrel)
  • Salvo 54 RND Fast Mag (Magazine)
  • Serpent Wrap (Handle)
  • SAS Combat Stock (Stock)

With these attachments equipped, the M16 is arguably an essential weapon to begin the game with.

The choice of barrel increases the rate of fire while the additions of the combat stock and infiltrator grip offer slight increases in mobility which makes movement much easier.

Is The M16 Good In Cold War Zombies?

If you’re looking for a highly powerful rifle to slay the undead, I rate the M16 extremely highly.

The outright power surpasses any assault rifle and despite its relatively slow mobility, the M16 shreds through anything that moves for the opening ten rounds.

In my opinion, it’s one of the strongest weapons to be used, and with this set of attachments, very few weapons come close to matching the strength of this weapon in Zombies.
