"A German creation, the 416 Assault rifle was built as a solution to the M4/M16 outdated weapon systems. The modifications guard against malfunctions and prolongs the life of parts."

— In-game description.

The M416 is a weapon featured in Battlefield: Bad Company 2, appearing exclusively in multiplayer.

Multiplayer[]

The M416 is the sixth assault rifle issued to the Assault kit, requiring 35,000 points to unlock. It has a 30-round magazine with a grenade launcher, and can be further modified with a Red Dot Sight or 4X Rifle Scope. It boasts all-around effectiveness, but is still outclassed by SMGs and shotguns at close quarters and semi-automatic rifles at longer ranges.

Compared to its close counterpart, the STG.77 AUG, the M416 is slightly superior in recoil control, reload time and minimum damage. It is equal in maximum damage per second and slightly inferior to the AUG in hip fire spread. The weapon's good and balanced stats give it an easy learning curve and excellent versatility making it a popular assault rifle.

While the iron sights are clear and open, it may be advisable to equip a Red Dot Sight or a 4X Scope on the M416 as the bullet trajectory actually travels higher than the end of the front post sight.

Trivia[]

  • When the M416's grenade launcher is fired, the player model does not have his finger on the trigger of the M203 in both third and first-person. This is the same with the M16.
  • The reloading animation in Battlefield: Bad Company 2 is the same as the M4A1 in the multiplayer of Medal of Honor (2010), which was also developed by DICE.
