The M16 series mines are of the bounding, fragmenting type, and are employed primarily in mixed mine fields to protect antitank mines against enemy breeching parties. They can be used by themselves in the preparation of ambushes or in the nuisance mining of areas likely to be occupied by enemy troops.

The M16 is a "Bouncing Betty" type mine that bounds almost 4 feet (1.2 m) into the air on activation. Metal fragments disperse over 360 degrees at a range of up to 100 ft (30 m). Its casing is an olive green cylinder. The M16 consists of three parts: a mine fuze; propelling charge to lift the mine; and a projectile contained in a cast-iron casing.
