The
M4 carbine is a family of firearms tracing its lineage back to earlier
carbine versions of the M16, all based on the original AR-15 designed
by Eugene Stoner and made by ArmaLite. It is a shorter and lighter
version of the M16A2 assault rifle, with 80% parts commonality. The M4
has selective fire options including semi-automatic and three-round
burst (like the M16A2), while the M4A1 has a "full auto" option instead
of three-round burst.
The M4 and its variants fire 5.56x45mm NATO ammunition (or .223
Remington ammunition) and are gas-operated, air-cooled, magazine-fed,
selective fire firearms with a multi-position telescoping stock.
Original M4 models had a flat-ended telescoping stock, but newer models
are now equipped with a redesigned telescoping stock that is slightly
larger with curvature at the end. The M4 is similar to much earlier
compact M16 versions, such as the 1960s-era XM177 family. Some of those
visual designs are obvious in both weapons, however most of the
similarities are not very noticeable.
As with many carbines, the M4 is handy and more convenient to carry
than a full-length rifle. The price is slightly inferior ballistic
performance compared to the full-size M16, with its nearly 6" (15 cm)
longer barrel. This becomes most apparent at ranges of 300 yards and
beyond. Statistically, however, most small-arms engagements occur
within 100 yards. This means that the M4 is very much an adequate
weapon for the majority of troops. The marginal sacrifice in terminal
ballistics and range, in exchange for greatly improved handling
characteristics, is usually thought to be a worthwhile compromise.
While the M4's maneuverability makes it a candidate for non-infantry
troops (vehicle crews, clerks and staff officers), it also makes it
ideal for close quarters battle (CQB). The M4 was developed and
produced for the United States government by Colt Firearms, which had
an exclusive contract to produce the M4 family of weapons through 2009;
however, a number of other manufacturers offer M4-like firearms. The
M4A1, along with the M16A4, have mostly replaced the M16A2; the U.S.
Air Force, for example, plans to transition completely to the M4. The
M4 is also the standard rifle for U.S. Air Force Security Forces
members whether at home station or deployed abroad. They maintain a
yearly qualification on it.
The United States Marine Corps has ordered its officers (up to the rank
of lieutenant colonel) and Staff Non-commissioned officers to carry the
M4A1 carbine instead of the M9 handgun. This is in keeping with the
Marine Corps motto, "Every Marine is a rifleman." United States Navy
corpsmen will also be issued M4A1s instead of the M9.
KA-GBB-01
The
replica has been made of metal and a durable type of plastics - ABS.
The receiver, outer barrel, RIS rails, iron sights and all minor
elements, like the trigger or magazine catch, have ben made of metal.
The buttstock, foregrip and the pistol grip have been made of ABS.
The
size and technical design are very similar to the original. Just like
in the real gun, a system enabling for quick dismantling and folding of
the iron sights has been introduced.
Set includes:
- KA-GBB-01 - Real-Cap magazine
- Buffer set for stock tube

Velocity [FPS]
It is the spped of bb, while its leaving the innerbarrel of replica. This speed is measured in FPS (Feet Per Second).
1 FPS = 0,3 m/s
1 J = 99 m/s
1 J = 326,7 FPS
:
450 - 480
Propultion
Replicas have spring, electric or gas propultion. Spring models need to
reload after each shot (pull back the lock) to enter the ball into the
chamber. At the same time it pulls spring back, to be able to
give a shot. Electric replicas depends on the battery,
whereby the engine drives the whole gearbox, and a gas models, push
the BB by gas, which loads in magazine (in these replicas ther is
not spring).
:
Gas propulsion
Type of fire:
Single, auto
Made of:
ABS + metal
Lenght [mm]
The
length of the replca is measured between the two most distant points of
each other. Different models have several of these values, because of
its design allows to increase or decrease it length (eg. folding stock or
extended flash hider).
:
770 - 854
Innerbarrel length [mm]:
368
Weight [g]
This is a value that includes the weight of the replica, magazine and
other accessories that are include in set without a battery, charger,
cleaning rod, etc., etc.
:
2744
Magazine type:
Real-Cap magazine
Magazine capacity [pcs]:
30
Hop-Up
Hop-Uup system is used for overclocking bb during the shot (putting
it in rotation), through which, it extends its flight
path. Acting laws of physics make that bb lift up,
while the gravitational force take it down. Appropriate
adjustment of Hop-Up, will compensate for these two factors, which
result in long and straight flight for longer distance and be greater focus shot (to improve accuracy).
:
Yes, regulated
Blow Back
Blow back is a simulation system of the cocking lever - it imitates the
work of it as the equivalent sharp. This system raises the realism and
adds a lot more experience during shooting.
Power of all presented replicas is less than 2 [J]. You cannot buy a replica in our shop if you are under 18. Do not shoot at other persons, birds or animals.
