Description
An electric Airsoft replica of one of the most widely used and iconic weapon platforms in use today, the legendary M4A1. The CM.506 M4 Combat Machine is built from with a tough but extremely lightweight polymer receiver, stock, buffer tube, handguard and sights, with an reliable alloy barrel and internals.
The front sight features a triangular design with sling adaptor in line with the real M4A1. It's high profile, allows you aim with ease as your head won't need to be as close to the rifle as with other sight layouts, letting you speedily pick off those longer range targets with ease. The removable rear sight can be adjusted for windage / elevation depending on the skirmish at hand or weather conditions.
Over the barrel, the CM.506 boasts a Quad Rail 20mm RIS / RAS handguard / rail system which accommodates a wide variety of attachments such as grips, torches, lasers and sights, again giving you a multitude of playstyle options as big as your imagination, as well as a full length top 20mm Rail for attaching larger sights and scopes at the rear of the rail. Moving forward if you ever interested in another handguard, the included handguard can always be removed and replaced with the guard of your choice.
Constructed from tough, dense polymer, the body of the rifle features a dummy bolt catch to replicate the real deal. The fire select is for right handed use and is easily switched between modes with the thumb, with the mag release on the right hand size of the gun easily accessed with the trigger finger.
The classic style STANAG magazine is a 300rnd high cap magazine, easily wound from the bottom of the mag to keep you shooting full auto for long periods of time.
By pulling back the bolt catch, the internal Hop-up unit is revealed, adjusted by turning the gear, giving you the option to set the BB spin, adjusting for windage, elevation and range.
The stock of the M4A1 can be adjusted at six locking points, allowing you to adjust the length of pull between 70cm - 80cm, for a more comfortable shoulder weld, depending on your size. The butt plate of the stock is made from rubber, providing a slip free surface when using the rifle.
This rifle is rear wired, meaning the battery connector is accessed by simply pull the adjuster tab on the stock down and sliding the stock off to reveal the buffer tube, and Tamiya connector. A wider range of batteries can be used, such as crane stock batteries in the stock itself or Li-Po which fit down the buffer tube. We recommend 8.4v NiMh Crane Stock Battery or 7.4V 1300mAh 15C LiPo Stick Battery
The tightbore barrel is a sweet addition in that it allows for greater accuracy and range, giving you the ability to really reach out and touch the enemy at a longer range than they might expect!
This is the perfect starter AEG for those wanting to get into skirmishing and start playing. With it's tough lightweight design, it's a great choice for those run and gun speedy players, looking for something that will perform in both a CQB and larger scale environments. The CM.506 comes with everything you need right out of the box, allowing you to get stuck and start taking objectives and downing opponents.
With a huge array of potential improvements thanks to the 20mm quad rail system, you can customise to your heart's content going forward. A cheap and easy way to start playing, the CM.506 has something for every new player.

Recommended Battery
For the CM.506, we recommend a 7.4v LiPo with Tamiya connector in stick or crane stock configuration.
Special Instructions
Please note, the buffer tube sling plate on the CM.506 is constructed from polymer and we do not recommend using it as it may not be up to the task of supporting the weight of the AEG, especially with a single-point sling. We recommend using the sling slots on the stock and pairing them with the front sling point on the front sight/gas block to mount a two-point sling.

Joule Charts
Special Instructions
These table can be used as a reference to see if the BB weight you are using will be over acceptable Joulage limits at some Airsoft Sites in the UK. To check if the weight can be used chrono your weapon using the BB you intend to use, and then compare it to the chart.
FPS, Power and Joule Limits can vary from site to site, so please get in touch with where you're going to play with in advance to avoid disappointment.
Suggested limits are based on Joulage Limit rules used Halo Mill: Proving Grounds, with a 350fps limit for Automatic Replicas, 400fps for Semi-Automatic Replicas, and 500fps for Bolt Action Replicas.
Tap the tabs below to open the relevant chart for your replica.
This table should be used for reference, and cannot be used to check one weight against another, as the weight of the BB affects the power.
In order to check if the BB can be used with your replica chronograph using the weight you wish to use and then compare it against the table.
Every time you change weights you will need to re-chrono and check against the table. This is not a conversion chart between weights.
Suggested limits are based on Joulage Limit rules used Halo Mill: Proving Grounds, and is the equivalent of 350fps, using 0.20g BB resulting in an upper limit of 1.14j.
