M4
The M4 is essentially a shortened, lightened M16 that shares a high percentage of parts with the M16, with the added benefit of a longer barrel length than the CAR-15. The M4’s 14.5-inch barrel is shorter than the M16’s 20 inch barrel, and comes at a slight cost in long-range performance, though being nearly 5 inches longer than the CAR-15, offers superior performance on a still quite light and compact platform.
and it was the AR-15 before that, a weapon recognised through the ages at all stages of its evolution!
