    At last check, five of the twelve volumes of the "Report of the M16 Rifle Review Panel" are available for free download through DTIC.

    Volume 1 - History of the M16 Weapon System
    Volume 6 - Appendix 5 - Procurement Production and Distribution History of the AR15-M16-M16A1 Weapon System
    Volume 7, Appendix 6 - Review and Analysis of M16 System Reliability
    Volume 8, Appendix 7 - M16 Surveys in the Republic of Vietnam
    Volume 11, Appendix 10 - The Army Small Arms Program

    The following are not currently available for download:

    Volume 2, Appendix 1 - Small Arms Test Policies and Procedures
    Volume 3, Appendix 2 - Audit Trail and Analysis of M16A1 Weapon and Ammunition System Tests
    Volume 4, Appendix 3 - Review and Analysis of M16 Rifle Training
    Volume 5, Appendix 4 - Ammunition Development Program
    Volume 9, Appendix 8 - Review and Analysis of the Army Organizational Structure and Management Practices
    Volume 10, Appendix 9 - Audit Trail of Chief of Staff, Army Actions and Decisions Concerning the M16
    Volume 12, Appendix 11 - M16 Product Improvement Modifications

    None of these twelve volumes appear to have been available at the time that "The Great Rifle Controversy", "The M16 Controversies", and "The Black Rifle" were written.
    Thanks for this information.
