and it has a collapsible butt stock which is really nice...makes it alot easier to carry.
I carried an M4 w/ CCO and M240B (which is more or less an upgrade of the M60)

Sorry to say but you are missing the M203 grenade launcher attachment, the Mark 19 auto grenade launcher, the AT4 anti-tank rocket, Javelin Missile launcher, oh and then there is the whole list of grenades. But that is just to name a few.

Well where they at bro? ..that's why I posted this thread...so y'all can add to it...hell, I been out of the game for 20+ years now, so... And I was a hell of a grenadier Sam... I put a 40mm - 203 grenade through the side window of a 155 self preopelled at 250 yrds... down at Sill on the artillery range. and I know the M4 comes with optional 203 ( which I DID state above if ya wann go look... ) just figured somebody else could post a pic if they wanted to...ya know how we like to show off our "tools" ..LMAO! CAUTION HERE GUYS: Only post what you can find around the web.... we dont need to be educating hadji. ...for obvious reasons, I dont want to see pictures of classified weapons or tools here. Not only will it be deleted on sight, I WILL REPORT YOU. 74th USAFAD (Clearance: Inactive) [Agent:1]
