The TM M4 S System.
 

Ive been thinking of getting one anyone like them ? whats wrong with them etc etc .

Sorry if there is already a thread but i didnt see one and the search is all whack.

love mine...the rail system really seems to solidify and solve the barrel wobble issue.

One of my teammates also has one...slipped in some mud and fell barrel first into the dirt this past spring. Nice hole in the ground where the barrel entered, probably went 3-4 inches below the surface. After cleaning the mud and inner barrel...absolutenly nothing wrong...no cracks, no bending, still shoots fine today.

I dare you to try that with a full sized A2 ;)

yeah Im waiting in a ICS M4 RIS i was suposed to get it last week but the guy still hasnt deliverd so im thinking of just sayin screw it and getting the TM M4 S system.

A friend and I each put down a deposit on S-Systems a couple weeks ago and resigned ourselves to wait for Star VLTOR modstocks for 1700Mah batteries to come in special order (check these out if you do get the S-System, the VLTOR or Crane modstocks by Star). Turns out the wrong stocks were shipped along with no batteries *cry* Looks like it might be another month 'til I get my first AEG. Since that time I think I've looked at every picture of it on the internet twice and it seems to get better each day, lol.

is it full metal out of the box?? is the SIR all metal??

The TM M4 S system is not full metal. The body is plastic like all other TM guns. In fact, the SIR system is not even full metal.

oh yah...damn....oh well then

there is no metal body available as upgrade for S system.
if you really like SIR, get a basic M4, buy ICS or Samurai SIR and 1 piece barrel (if your budget is large enough, get the metal body too)

Damn i cant imagine a M4s fmu, even a stock m4s is heavy

I love mine!

but many things are upgraded don't forget, like the tabs are reinforced to prevent breakage which is a bit more common in the M4 lineup.

I wonder why that is... perhaps manufacturers believe it's already sturdy enough? Granted, the M4S is quite sturdy, and I don't really see a need for a metal body... but it'd be nice to have that as an option.

it is uber sturdy.. but i thought you could swap out the body for a metal aftermarket one?!

anyway.. phalanix.. how is your first armalite ?

i'll prolly grab a g&p m4a1 and an SIR...looks like mad $$$$$$

You probably could.. but I'm not sure - perhaps some subtle differences between the body designs? Haven't really seen it being mentioned on the Net.

Well, this would be my second Armalite actually. First was a CA about 3 years back... that sucked like hell, didn't work out of the box. Nothing was right with that piece of crapalite. *lol* But I'm rather keen with this new M4-S, I've already changed the stock and handgrip on it. Now it's quite comfortable to hold - I'll be testing it out at our next TD, so you'll see it if you're coming. ;)

This'll be my new baby until the M14 comes in...

you can use Zeke M4 metal bodies on m4s.
I like mine. Just lil bit grumppy about the fake SIR that can't come off the body like the samurai or ICS. Also the barrel is not actually one peice, broken down infront of the delta ring. The gas tube is not one peice either.
Other than these, I like it.
