M4A1 cco VS M4A3 cco

[Wabid Wabit 34]

I know the guns are suppose to be identical besides the flashlight and camo but why is it so much easier to find then the M4A1 cco? My opinion only I seem to find it more accurate for head-shots on Zeds, also seems to me the distance has better accuracy also, I set up shop in a big white barn with both guns for fun and at distance I was getting better head-shots with M4A3 - Anyone have an opinion? or find same results as I? The DZDB Map thingy has it as a better chance of find then the M4A1 cco which I find correct but I think it should be opposite. You get the pretty color and a Deathlight all in one. Either way I love it and found it to be one of my Favs.

Thanks for reading my blabber mouth :)

I think the M4A3 has a vertical handle on the front, doesn't that make it more accurate?

Not sure, but I think it says so on the wiki.

Hmmm, that's strange, (IRL) vertical fore grips don't necessarily make a gun easier to shoot... it's personal preference and depends on the situation. I'm gonna look at the configs and check this out.

Personally prefer the M4A3 CCO as you can use it to blind enemy targets with Night Vision on.

[JackPotDayz 26]

However the specs seem to be the same, with both guns using the same rounds, theres no noticeable difference

The flashlight on the CCO isn't functional.

I'll take either gun, but would prefer the M4A3 for dat camo.

About the accuracy, I just checked the configs - false (unless I'm missing something :lol: quite possible, me being me).

-M16: dispersion = 0.0001 (0.00175 in full auto)

M4A1: dispersion = 0.00175, same for full auto

M4A3: dispersion = 0.00175, same for full auto

The M4A3 doesn't handle faster (dexterity) than the M4A1 either.

I seem to have it working every time I play though. Really nice when playing while dark, and without the NVG. Also bound the light key to my mouse, wich makes it way more easy to handle. Not really preferable running around with the lights on all the time.

[Wabid Wabit 34]

Sorry to confuse everyone, I based the difference off sitting in a barn and pegging Zeds with Head shots, not from Military specs, or Wiki's - The M4A3 had less drop shooting distance then the M4A1, Things that may have effected my decision could have been, Wind blowing faster or harder, Zed was shorter then the other, Zed may have walked in a dip in the field (LOL) But over all I had better head shots with the M4A3 without over or under aiming, aldo in Game I would rather have the M4A3 then the M4A1 (Unless it was the SD) Just a personal preference....

Thanks for the feedback all

Wind blowing faster or harder

There is no wind in dayz/arma 2 (default) to my knowledge, although only recently someone was working on a wind system for dayz.

[Mos1ey 6301]

I've only ever found M4A3 CCOs and M4A1 CCO SDs. I didn't realise both variants were available in DayZ, lol. xD
