    I have the Classic Army M15A4 Tactical Carbine and it's a great AEG. Feylya can also testify to that after borrowing it for the day at the HRTA birthday event.

    It's just a stock M15A tactical carbine. I'm keeping it plain (externally) for a more Vietnam era look although I do intend to do some internal tinkering and replacing.

    There's alot of difference between the two.

    It's nearly a completely different gun.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,125 ✭✭✭amaughan


    which is better and is the sportsline a bad gun

    As someone who uses a sportsline - and I can speak for 2 or 3 others who have the same - it's a great AEG. For the money; it's superb. No problems whatsoever [touches head, in absence of wood].

    Good buy imo.:)

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,295 ✭✭✭SniperSight


    I'm getting an 8.4V battery included(and another one seperately incase the included one is below par). If I think it needs more I'll probably just get a 9.6v crane battery.
    Aswell as that, I have a 4x32 ACOG Scope ready for it, and I am going to buy a Troy Style Silencer for it. May see what it looks like without the front sight.
    Maybe later then I'll get a metal RIS/RAS kit or get screw in RIS rails for the standard barrrel case.
    My Sig(If you can see it, is how I plan it to look).


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,125 ✭✭✭amaughan


    no i cant see anything sounds good tho send us a pix of it tomo i diein to see it haha

    just got the kwa m4 2 weeks ago. i reckon it has to be one of the best aeg's i have seen. its a solid all metal gun that is lipo ready and can take up tp 11 V battery without any upgrades. bought mine for 270 in mia, worth evey penny.
    now if only kwa will release an m14 :)

    Got my M15A4 Sportsline today, (Thanks much to Tony from eirsoft).
    You asked, so heres my thoughts on it with pics included.
    I am more than happy with it.
    Its nice and weighty but centered nicely. Very sturdy, the only shaking I can find is in the retractable stock, ands on every M4.
    100_0246.jpg
    The quality of the finish is quiet impressive, although its ABS(receiver), its not especially obvious even when you run your fingers over it. The trademarks are all there and it even comes with a unique serial number.:cool:

    The metal exterior parts are: The Hi-Cap Magazine, Trigger, Delta Ring, Barrel, Flash Hider, Charging Handle, Bolt Relese(Dummy), Stock Tube, Safety switch, Front Sling Swivel, Mag release, Dust Cover, Body Pins, Carry handle mounting screws, Rear Sights(including adjustment dials). The Front Sight appears to be metal, I honestly cant tell so I'll say it is.(If its ABS its the best looking and feeling abs I've seen!).
    These metal parts appear to have a deliberate battleworn look to them, (every other Sportline I've seen is the same).
    The ABS body parts (Receiver, Stock, Barrel Casing, Rail) are all nicely finished and are comfortable to the touch, no flaws or jagged seems.
    100_0248.jpg
    The safety lever works perfectly, snaps into position with no wobble.
    The Mag-Release works nice, smoothly and deliberately ie. the button is just stiff enough that the mags wont slide out if you push up against something, but come out with relative ease at the users touch.
    The charging handle oberates smoothly, and has a working safety feature to ensure it isnt pulled back if lets say snaggeg by a bush. The dust dover opens to reveal the hop-unit.
    100_0265.jpg
    The detachable carry handle reveals the 20mm standard rail for various sights. The sights on the handle itself are fully adjustable, and like most M4/M16 rifles there are two to choose from, a pin-hole for accurate shooting and a standard size aperture for automatic/general use.
    100_0254.jpg
    100_0271.jpg
    The magazine feeds well and there is no play, it stays firmly in place.
    The flash hider is removable and when removed displays a 14mm thread for silencers.

    The barrel casing splits in two through the use of the Delta ring, to reveal ample space for your batterie. Theres loads of room for a 9.6V Crane battery, but apparently you'll require bushing upgrades to deal with the extra oommpphh!!
    100_0266.jpg
    I'm am not an expert or even amatuer in internals so unfortunately I cant give much details there.

    However I do know the barrel is nice and tight and DOES give very good grouping.
    100_0268.jpg
    Unfortunately my camera battery ran out before I could do some groupings test.:(
    The ROF with an 8.4 1500mAh (which I bought seperately(not the one in the pi))is very impressive. The sound is quiet good too, possibly because of the ABS mody not holding in sound like a metal body would. From experience with my brothers rifle, I'd say its about 310~320(again this is roughly, defo not much less if it is less.)

    This rifle is goo for customization(spelling?) Theres the RIS on top of the reciever, the threaded barrel tip. Other then that you could install a full RIS system and use a PEQ box for battery storage(the wiring is long enough to allow that). If you dont want the front sight to interfere with your scope/red-dot then you can remove the whole sight.
    100_0244.jpg

    So there it is, all in all I'd say this is an exceptional gun for the price. In fact IMO even if the price was higher it'd still be a very, very good gun.
    Hope this was helpful.:):):):)



    (To Mods, I posted this review because the OP asked about the M15A4, and me to share what info I could when I recieved mine. If you feel this should be in the reviews thread feel free to move it there, thanks.)
