The weapon is a shorter and lighter version of the M16A2 assault rifle, achieving 80% parts commonality with the M16A2. The M4 has selective fire options including semi-automatic and three-round burst (like the M16A2), while the M4A1 has a "full auto" option in place of the three-round burst. The M4A1 is sometimes also found with a he ...

| | | | M4 Carbine - Headline text: Encyclopedia II - M4 Carbine - History and variants Except for the very first delivery order, all U.S. military issue M4 and M4A1 possess a flat-top NATO M1913-specification rail on top of the receiver (for attachment of optical sights and other aiming devices — Trijicon TA11 and TA31 ACOGs and Aimpoint M68 CCOs being the favorite choices), and a detachable rail-mounted carrying handle. The current government standards are the Colt Model 920 (M4) and 921 (M4A1). The major difference between these models is that the M4 has the "S-1-3" (safe/semi-automatic/3-round burst) fire modes, while the M4A1 has a "S-1-F ...

| | | | M4 Carbine - Headline text: Encyclopedia II - M4 Carbine - American civilian ownership Sales of M4 by Colt are restricted to military and law enforcement. Only under special circumstances can a civilian own an M4 Carbine.

The rate of fire (even for burst-firing models) would classify it as a machine gun. While many machine guns can be legally owned with a proper tax stamp from the BATF, the Gun Owner's Protection Act of 1986 barred the transfer to civilians of machine g ...
