While the AR 16 never was adopted as a service rifle by any nation, its main claim to fame was that, in scaled down form, it served as the basis for the more widely known 5.56mm AR 18 , itself an influence on later designs. Despite the similarity in nomenclature, and while it is an ArmaLite design like the AR 15 M16 Rifle M16 , it is a very different weapon. Eugene Stoner designed the AR 16 after the AR 15 s direct gas impingement action was sold to Colt s Manufacturing Company . Stoner designed a more conventional weapon, using a more conventional short stroke gas piston in place of the direct impingement system of the AR 15. The design was eventually used in the 5.56mm Armalite AR 18 , but the AR 16 was only manufactured in prototype form and was never put into production.
