Give 'em an M16, those things will fire regardless of how wet you get

A lot of young guys died in Vietnam because M16's would NOT fire when
dirty or wet!

That was true back then, but all that got fixed, the current model can be
totally immersed until thoroughly soaked, picked up out of the water and the
barrel drained, and it will fire. Dirt is another issue, though the current
versions handle it better than those of the Viet Nam era.
