In a way the M16 is a machine gun, but it can also do three round burst and semi automatic. civilians are not allowed to have automatic m16s unless you have an automatic weapons permit, but you can have a semi automatic M16. (an AR-15 is almost like an M16 and much cheaper if you're looking to buy one.)

Depends on what you mean by automatic guns, and the law where you live. You did not tell us where that is, so there is no way we can answer. Where I live you CAN legally own fully automatic firearms (machine guns) but they are horribly expensive. An M16 rifle that may be owned by a private citizen is between $12,000 and $16,000.

What is best the M16 or M4?
Both guns are very excellent guns, but it just depends on the situation. If your in confined spaces, the m4 would be better due to its compactness; but if your outside, the m16 would be better due to its accuracy. Overall, I think the m16 is better, but that's just my opinion. Besides, there are better guns than the m16 series such as the m468 with its heavier round, and the scar with its interchangability between the 556 round and the 762 round.

Why are machine guns important?
Because, machine guns have a high rate of fire you can shoot multiple times without reloading, more ammunition, so you don't have to reload often. and some have very good range, for ex: the M16 has a range of up to 350-500 yards, as dose the AR-15. Machine guns also have good power too. So, to have a high rate of fire, good power, and range, is why they are important.
