Auto Credit Based on Pilotmario's M4A2 ICS

The M4 Carbine is an American 5.56mm NATO carbine, derived from the M16A2 assault rifle. A descendant of the short-barreled CAR-15 carbines from Vietnam, the M4 is the current standard-issue rifle for the US Army and Marine Corps, as well as various US-aligned militaries. A light and modular weapon, the M4 is a favorite among special forces units around the world. Originally made by Colt, it is now made by over a dozen other manufacturers such as Bushmaster Arms and FN Herstal.

    @Coolfungame I was referring to a video game.

    The FN SCAR, AR-15, and AK platforms in real life are all good. They hit hard, shoot straight, and are quite lethal in their own right.

    I wouldn't want to get shot at by any firearm, and those are atop the list I don't want to get shot at with.

    @Killguymonster I presume what you are talking about is the M416 from PUBG.

    The M416 in PUBG is a renamed HK 416 to avoid potential copyright issues; HK is a registered trademark by Heckler and Koch, and using it without proper permission is easy grounds for a lawsuit. The HK 416 itself is an improved M4 Carbine in order to make it more suitable for use with special forces.

    As a matter of fact, it was originally named the HK M4 during development, but changed the name to avoid a copyright suit by Colt, which owned the M4 trademark. While Colt lost the lawsuit from Bushmaster regarding the trademark, I presume that HK felt it would be easier to change a name than to pay lawyers for a court case.
