From the bands early beginning in 1981 as a local cover band playing metal standards from Maiden, Priest, and Def Leppard M-16 quickly built a reputation in the area. Every time one would scan the local papers and magazines M-16 would be playing somewhere and sure to sellout the place. By 1988 the band released their only album to date 'Locked and Loaded' a solid piece of hook filled melodic hard rock. By the following year the M-16 would disband. Almost two decades later the band would reform to go out and the circuit again to play for those who hold fond memories of a time that just simply rocked. For fan of; Dokken, Bon Jovi, Icon, White Sister, Helix, Keel. Limited to 500.
