What's the difference between the M4A1 CCO And the M4A3 CCO?

Recommended Posts

So me and some other people raided NW Airfield and I Found a M4A3 CCO and an M4A1 CCO so I Was just wondering what's the difference? Is the M4A3 CCO Powerfull? ALso, what's up with Mountain Dew, why does everybody want it? It's just a drink

Foregrip?

Also, the Ammo used is the same, no difference in power.

Sure the A3 model should only have burst, but doesn't ingame. (not 100% sure on this).

I think m4a1 cco has no flashlight, but I'm not sure.

Mountain dew is super rare it seems. I've only found it twice in like 3 or so weeks. I put it in a tent but the tent disappeared because the owner (Not me, my friend) died.

M4A1 CCO = red dot scope and semi or full auto fire

M4A3 CCO = red dot scope, semi, burst or full auto fire, camo skin, foregrip, flashlight.

i have had m4a3 cco like 3 million times and never ever has it had burst for me, and in real life, the m16a3 has burst, m4 was created because troops needed a cqb weapon that can create a wall of lead.

Ive had both at one point and the main difference is the fire settings

M4A1 CCO has semi or full auto + Red dot sight

M4A3 CCO has semi or 3 round burst only + Red dot and flashlight

Camo is standard on the A3 and standard black is the A1.

The Dayz wiki shows it correctly for the M4A1 but someone should change it for the A3 as the fire selection isnt listed.

Nahh the only difference is the A3 has a rail under the carry handle and the A2's handle isn't removable

Wiki states that the M4A1 has semi-burst while the M4A3 goes to fully automatic. This isn't correct ingame.

Far as I'm aware M4A3 doesn't have burst. I'll check again when I log in but, derp.

The M4A1 actually has a flashlight on it, but it doesn't work. :/

I feel that the A3 stabilises itself faster than the A1 due possibly to the fore grip.

it could just be me but I think so anyway

The M4a3 does NOT have burst fire. It goes between Semi and Full. The flashlight is a great tool, the button to activate it is "L".

Ive seen that, i think you need to equip a flashlight in ur side arm slot, SioN my fellow bandit had the same weapon & it was actually missing the flashlight it was just a hollow shell waiting for the addition.

Bug maybe?

M4A1 is manufactured by a few companies, mostly Colt and Remington.

A2 and A3 variants are produced by Bushmaster. The differences between the models are pretty small (stock, rails, etc.).

In Arma II, the M4A3 CCO and M4A1 CCO both have red dot sights, but the M4A3 has a foregrip, a flashlight, and a camo pattern. I am pretty certain that both the A1 and A3 only have semi and full auto. While it's possible for M4s to have burst, I don't think they do in Arma II.

M4A3 only has semi and full firing modes. I use it 99% of the time I play DayZ.
