red wolf as the WA M4

[attack-beaver]

Western Arms M4A1 CQB-R
The gun we've all been waiting for - the Western Arms M4 with blowback feature is finally here and it's better than we could've expected! Take it out of it's packaging and you'll be pleasantly surprised that it has a decent weight to it, despite not having a metal body. The main receiver is not any ordinary ABS plastic though, as it has been re-inforced with fibre-glass to make it much tougher.

What lies within the fibre-glass re-inforced body is what really makes this gun truly exciting, as in place of a gearbox, you will find that it has a blowback mechanism powered by HFC134a or even Top Gas, which is filled into the metal magazines. Once charged with gas, you're ready for action; there is actually a feature to make it convenient to dry fire (without BBs) if you would like to show off your blowback! Pull the cocking handle back, then you're ready to fire. A neat feature, which is just like the real thing, is that the selector lever can not be moved when the trigger is engaged, which is nice to see WA paid attention to the littlest of things.

One thing that WA are famous for (apart from 1911 replicas!) is their Magna blowback, which has a reputation for having a strong kick. Well, this M4 is no different. Even with HFC134a, your shoulder can feel the force of the blowback, with quite a loud noise too (the gun, not your shoulder). With Top Gas, the force is even stronger, but rest assured HFC134a can give you plenty of s*&ts and giggles. Using HFC134a, the performance is a nice 300fps and with Top Gas, 380fps is easily achieved. It works flawlessly in both semi and full-auto modes too.

Even though it is not a full metal gun, it is still a very solid gun and you will eventually learn to love it for what it is, although it has got nice aesthetic touches, with an RIS system and a detachable carrying handle that allows a scope to be mounted. The gun also features a 6 position crane stock and the body has authentic engravings for all those who like to see the real trademarks on there. Also, unlike AEGs, the hop up is not inside the main receiver and can be found within the RIS system atop the barrel.

It is a truly exciting gun. Even though it is not the first blowback automatic rifle or even gas blowback one, it is the quite possibly the best one we have seen so far and we are sure that we will see an array of modification parts for this gun to follow - metal body anyone?

It's 9 pages long. Sorry, but no.

I'll sum up. Terrible finish, plastic body, poor range, even worse accuracy.

The distance was 20m.
I use Aimpoint M2 with KAC canti mount.I shot one round per 3 second with rest position.

BB is SIIS 0.25g

The grouping of 20 shots was more than 300mm.
I found muzzle velocity went down so quickly even 30 rounds.
May be the weather is not warm enogh.

i wasn't expecting much being its a WA and at the price kinda low.

[aZn_triXta07]

I'm thinking of getting one anyway as a friend of mine will machine a metal body to make it fit.

Yeah it is priced fairly low - but it's cheaper than the alternative, the LA Studios M4A1 GBB costs about $2-3000US in Japan.

Thanks Mcguyver.I was doing search a and found this short vid of it firing.

Remember awhile back I was asking about modding receivers for M16 to GBB,this is what I had drawn up.The same dame design.

[slans]

I want one!

[Double Tapper]

I'm also thinking of getting one.Wonder what price up here will be?.

[Shirley]

I wonder how you can even get upgrades for this one.. :S
Looks pretty cool btw.

Hmm, how much of an improvement would you expect to see from switching to external regulated gas? It seems like it would be easier to acquire than an Escort, plus already having a working bolt catch, for less recoil and the option to use it with internal gas intact.

RedWolf is a dealer for Escort - they can get them you just have to ask and show them your monies

The Escort M4 is roughly anywhere from 570USD - 750USD depending on the kind you want.
