“ A full-auto assault rifle, used by U.S. spec ops. - In-Game Description”
The M4A1 can be recovered from a locked weapons box in Flor De Oro, around a La Unidad-controlled sawmill. The weapon is versatile as due to it's balanced performance and large modification pool. Some mid-level sicarios also carry M4A1s which have a standard issue barrel, a mounted red dot sight and a 20-round magazine. Rather bafflingly, despite having an adjustable stock it is not possible to extend the M4A1's stock and so it always remains in the fully retracted position, in addition to being ridiculously oversized.
A unique version, dubbed the "M4A1 Tactical" is given to the player after defeating Carl Bookhart, a former US Ranger turned cartel drill instructor. It has a brown paint job, Aimpoint CompM4 sight, vertical grip, and can only be fired on semi-auto despite its fire selector switch. When encountered however, Bookhart does not use this weapon and instead opts to use the standard M4s used by all other cartel riflemen. A second unique variant, the "M4A1 Commando", comes from the Special Forces (Ghost Pack), and has an Aimpoint CompM4 sight like the Tactical, as well as a darker paint job, a wrapped handguard, and what seems to be a piece of a winter parka on the stock to serve as an improvised cheekpad.
