Description:
This M4A1 Carbine replica is a brilliant example of the legendary rifle that has been used for countless wars over the years. The rear cocking lever works just like the real gun, opening the breach upon cocking. The stock is an identical replica to the US military issue rifle.
Gun History
The M4 carbine (officially Carbine, Caliber 5.56 mm, M4) is a 5.56×45mm NATO, gas-operated,[b] magazine-fed carbine developed in the United States during the 1980s. It is a shortened version of the M16A2 assault rifle.
The M4 is extensively used by the United States Armed Forces, with decisions to largely replace the M16 rifle in United States Army (starting 2010) and United States Marine Corps (USMC) (starting 2016) combat units as the primary infantry weapon and service rifle. The M4 has been adopted by over 60 countries worldwide, and has been described as "one of the defining firearms of the 21st century".
The M4 and the M4A1 feed from 30-round STANAG magazines.[58] Other types of magazines with different capacities such as the 100 rounds Beta C-Mag are also available. In January 2017, a USMC unit deployed with suppressors mounted to every infantry M4 service weapon.
