There's an exception to every rule.

Actually the early M-16s were fine... they just weren't designed to be
used in a jungle, or any place else where there's dirt

Dirt wasn't the real problem. The Government/Military brass decided
to use up a bunch of powder they had laying around and after testing
were warned by Colt the rifle would have a high rate of jamming with
the powder the military chose to use.
Guess who won the argument? LOL
