Ok so I know that they are basicly the same gun aside from the fact that they have differant length barrels. my question is how much more accurate should I expect a M16 to be over an M4 carbine?

M4 is more convenient for me, m16 is just a bit too long.

key for range is having an efficient seal and having an excellent working hop up...if an MP5 that shoots 430 FPS with this....it will shoot as far as a 430 FPS M16 that also has an efficient seal and excellent hop...

the M16 IF IF you do the rite upgrades to it will have more range than a M4 but if you do the M4 mod with the silencer you can insert a longer barrel :) its what every one prefers i guess ;) range and accuracy usually comes with a good hop unit and a good TB barrel

man snoopy you took my words ;)

why not?

Well, I suppose you could start throwing the BB's out of your magazine. But who would call that hit?

there are no rules about having to and not having to call hit from BBs thrown...

well in my vsr its a proven fact tested by me that the accuracy is better with a longer barrel............. it also depends what diameter the inner barrel has, and who makes it...... thats from my experiance though some people might have different opinions and facts about this type of subject.....

anyone know where there might be a guide on barrel length and its effects on accuracy? I understand the the max range may not me effected but If I can turn a 4' spread at max range into a 2' spread that would help.

I resorted in getting .25's instead of a longer barrel and using .20's.

from what I have been reading the barrel length dosn't make all that much differance and the hop up and fps consistancy are more important than an extra 80mm of barrel.

so snoopy am i stating it wrong when i said "range and accuracy usually comes with a good hop unit and a good TB barrel " and what i meant by a good Hop Unit is air seal also just forgot to state it.... i never said that two equaly upgraded guns in most aeg's will be about the same in accuracy and range.

its an incomplete argument...

know what you mean :) its all good
