About this audiobook

Misfire combines insider knowledge of U.S. Army weapons development with firsthand combat experience to tell the story of the M16—iconic as the American weapon of the Vietnam War and, indeed, as the U.S. military’s standard service rifle until only a few years ago despite its tragic failure.
