Best m4?

[DMAN007]

I want to get an M4a1 and was wondering what everyone thought was the best brand. I was thinging either a KWA or G&G

[azsarge]

Classic Army.

The G&G M4s that another member had looked great but were pieces of shit.

I would stake my Echo 1 could go toe to toe with a classic, and for the price, thats the better rifle.
G&G may make a fine M14 but AZsarge is right, they can't make an M4 thats up to par.
KWA G36 is extremely nice, and I would assume the M4 would have the same reliability, even if it wobbles a bit.
I like the CA metal body and pseudo- trades, but I haven't had the best of luck with CA, and judging by the function I have seen, there M4's, un-upgraded, are average, though still better then a TM.
The new TM SOPMOD has me highly interested, but, unless I get my hands on one, I would advise you to steer clear of TM, you can get a better bang for your buck elsewhere.
Just my findings based on experiences I have had and have seen.

Ca m15a4
Mine has lasts me 3 years and it took a m120 stock
No problems yet

My CA CQBR has lasted me about 4-5 years atleast (i've had it so long I cant remember) and is still going strong. it's my backup rifle just in case because I know it will always work.

I vote for a Classic Army X Series M4.

Ill go ahead and say it for Xavier, ICS.

Turbo3k motor, 2 peice gearbox, reasonable prices.

While I still had mine I loved it, but was impulsive and sold it, and now its new owner loves it lol.

Theres really alot to say about ICS but Ill leave that to Xavier Mace.

I was thinking about CA but i've heard they only take CA aftermarket parts. and does anyone know how the new VFC E series m4's perform?  i've been seeing them around

I was thinking about CA but i've heard they only take CA aftermarket parts.

Like what?

[DMAN007]

I'm not sure but whenever i see those comparison charts between brands classic army always says not TM compatible or something along those lines...

For most guns I'd go with a Marui, but not when comes to an AR variant.  I'd go with Classic Army.  They're the only brand that has good functionality, good reliability, quality externals, and decent price tag ALL AT ONCE.  (Keep in mind, sportline series are NOT the same guns at all.)  After that I'd go G&P, but they're expensive.  Funny... the new CA X series designs are pretty much exactly like a G&P.  I don't recommend G&G or KWA; every time I've gotten one for repair it's been a headache.  ICS would be nice if they were more reliable.  Because of their unique design, I think they're cool, but I consider them more a 'project gun.'

Thanks for the info everyone, I didn't expect this to get as much attention as it did,
I'll look into getting either a CA or a G&P

I just got a 09 CA M15 and i must say it is amazing.. I only got to shoot it at night so im not sure how it shoots accuracy wise but i am going to figure out after school. I shoots very fast even with a 8.4 volt. pretty much everything is metal, the markings really add realism to the gun and the bolt makes a very cool click sound when it is released from the bolt catch. I got it for around 260 at gearbox (super cheap for what it is). also there is no wobble in the gun except the stock but that is almost expected, no wobble in the magwell with the CA Hi-cap mags not sure what it wil do with other mags tho.

CONS
After the bolt is released from the bolt catch it slams forward with such force that it has a tendency to nudge back a little bit therefore leaving a gap where particulate can get into the hop up (the gap is probably 3-4mm wide) so not that big of a deal.
Also would be nice if the charging handle had a spring (feels lame to just puch it back into place) But if you let it go realy fast the spring from the bolt will slam it forward and lock it into place.

I'm not sure why everyone is dissing G&G. I have their R4 Commando and it's amazing.
