XM4

The is a 5.56x45mm SDC, air-cooled, gas-operated, direct impingement, magazine-fed, select fire carbine. It has a 14.5 in (370 mm) barrel and a telescoping stock; It is the original lighter and shorter variant of the MK16A2 assault rifle.
==Design==
The XM4 is a smaller version of the MK16A2 except for it's different modifications, incorporating an adjustable telescopic buttstock for easier use and concealment, a shortened 14.5" Barrel though it makes the 5.56mm SDC round approximately/at least 40% weaker and slower. Though it's not really a problem with good shot placement. Also, this carbine is extremely noticeable by sporting the same upper receiver.
As with many carbines, the XM4 is handy and more convenient to carry than a mid sized rifle or a full-length rifle. The price is highly inferior ballistic performance compared to the full-size MK16, with its 5.5" (14 cm) longer barrel. This becomes most apparent at ranges of 200-450 meters and beyond.
