The M4 Carbine is one of the most popular weapons of all time.
Whether you are a gamer or you are a gun fan, the M4 is one of the most preferred guns of choice. The M4 and its various versions are used extensively in various armed forces around the world.
The M4 is a truly amazing gun and quite powerful as well. The gun uses 5.56 mm x 45 mm (NATO) ammo and is an assault weapon that can compete with the likes of an AK-47. M4 variations come with semi-auto and auto options, thus, giving the user a lot of control over the environment and shooting experience. Whether it is real life or inside a game, M4 carbines are master weapons capable of bringing down hell on one’s opponents. The first M4 was designed by the United States army when the M16 rifle (M16A2) could not bring the desired results in the Vietnam War. The M16 rifle was not great for close quarters and it also lacked accuracy, thus, urging the US government to build a modified variation of the M16. Colt, the weapon technology company, helped the U.S. Army Armament Munitions Chemical Command to build a carbine version of the M16A2. Eventually, what we know as the M4 was devised with time.
The M4 Carbine is lighter and shorter than the M16 series, being more easier to carry and reducing the recoil as well. The love for the M4 came due to the ‘no comprise’ mindset behind the design of this absolutely light-weight but powerful gun. The gun had incredible accuracy and maximum stability but did not compromise on ballistics and range. The advanced gear system also allowed faster reload and state-of-the-art auto-firing capabilities. An M4 tattoo is a great tattoo to have for people who love guns and want to show their love for this beauty of a weapon. M4s are very reliable and highly suitable for continuous operation while their predecessors broke down in the middle of a fight or during an ongoing battle. The AK series was made to be lasting and were easy to fix, thus the M4 series came as a boon to all the US troops who were overpowered by Russian AKs. The M4 series is also known for their quiet operation even though they have a powerful motor running, and their long-lasting stability. This is why, to this day, when people think of getting a rifle tattoo, gun tattoo or weapon tattoo, the M4 is one of the most popular choices. The M416 is the most popular variant of the M4 and is currently commissioned for use by the U.S. Army, U.S. Marines and even the U.S. Navy. Similarly, the use of stock M4s and custom M4s are seen throughout the globe by various important countries.
