New TM M4 Model

DoctorDeath · December 14th, 2005, 19:47

I saw the new M4 on the tokyo marui website. Can't tell much about it cause I can't read Japanese, but it looks like they have re-inforced the rear tabs. Also appears to have a one piece barrel and different style stock. Hopefully the barrel wobble will be gone. Anyone know what the internals will be and if the performance will be any better than the current M4? Anyone know any english sites that have some info?

Redwolf had some info up...

EDIT + Info

"One of the most popular AEGs of all time from Marui, the M4A1 sports a EG1000 motor and detachable handle/upper receiver. For this new type, Marui has installed a one-piece aluminium outer barrel and new stylish stock. Metal parts include barrel assembly, fully adjustable front/rear sights, magazine, trigger. Bolt cover flips open when you pull charging handle back just like the real steel! The detachable carrying handle reveals a weaver rail mount that can take a hi-scope mount that allows you to peer over the front sight. Metal flash hider screws off to reveal counter-clockwise 14mm thread for attachment of silencer (not included)."

Seems the FPS is the same.

WGC has them too.

Basically + Tabs.

I thought it was full metal!?

I don't think TM can legally make full metal airsoft guns in Japan.

Hoorah. Another Colt variant. In plastic.

I'm awaiting the inevitable fall from grace that TM will suffer, which hopefully will awaken them to the fact that their reliable internals will only carry them so far.

tm makes the best aeg's bar none. it was time for their m4 (which happens to be the standard in aeg's and probably for a reason) for a revision and i'm glad to see that they've resolved just about every major issue with the gun.
i'm surprised noone mentioned the revised hopup

. also these changes arent new, they were present in the s-system. so yeah the changes are: one piece barrel, new tabs (nicer body), new stock and improved (wont come loose as easily) hopup much like the laylax strike chamber.

long live tm.
i hope you ingrates realize that they actually designed just about every aeg out there, not to mention some great hop and gbb systems that other makers copied. the only exceptions i can think of right now would be the star (uses tm style gears and internals - mechbox shell) the top guns and the systema ptw's.

Don't forget ICS' M4A1!

Still the same mechbox, just cut in half. Hopup similar to G3, and crappier.

Are you talking about the TM or ICS?

I'm not sure if the one piece barrel as advertised is correct. I'm hearing from several airsoft stores that it is STILL a two piece configuration, but what they did was that they put on a tight rubber sleeve to cover both portions of the barrel. Some sort of "reinforcement" to prevent barrel wobble.

Can anyone verify this?

Good advice.

no one can deny that TM makes excellent guns.
Gryphon, you seem to like bashing everything thats not a CA, but seeing as how biased your oppinio is, its hard to take you seriously.
Pratically every AEG by every other maker is a copy of TM. The fact that TM hasnt gone with FMU armalites isnt a big deal, their guns are stiff affordable and every other gun they make is still excellent.

Agreed, CA and ICS have made some nice products as of late, but thats just recently. And its still anyones guess if its gonne work or not.

TM will always survive because they always come up with something new. others can come up with copies of TM guns, but TM comes out with revolutionary guns like the M14.

I was talking about the ICS, I was replying to the message directly above mine.

I believe TM's M4s used to have a 3-piece barrel design... 2-piece is a step up. I don't think the new M4s have been out long enough to really rule out the possibility of barrel wobble, but common consensus is that they're more stable now.

Way to be a thread necro, by the way =P
