Does the trigger lock when the last round is fired in a m16?

The M16 series may be different today, but during the Vietnam War on the last round (from either a 20 or 30 round magazine) the bolt and dust cover stayed open on the final shot. All you had to do was slap another magazine into the well and snap the bolt release button which slammed the bolt closed...then give the forward bolt assist (located on the right side) a quick strike with the heel of your shooting hand to ensure the old jungle rifle was ready to fire.
