Information
The Maverick M4A1 Carbine, often referred to as the M4, is an assault rifle featured in the Counter-Strike series, exclusive to the Counter-Terrorists. The counterpart for the Terrorists is the CV-47.
In Counter-Strike: Global Offensive, it was replaced by the M4A4 but had a successor added in the Arms Deal update as the M4A1-S, taking up the same slot as its replacement.
Overview
The M4A1 is a moderately powerful CT assault rifle with a middle-of-the-road price tag at $3100, between the AUG’s $3500 and the FAMAS’s $2250. It is a very versatile weapon that can be mastered for nearly every situation, making it one of the most popular weapons in the Counter-Strike series.
The M4A1 deals fairly high damage per shot, though not as much as the AK-47 and is unable to instantly kill an armored enemy with a headshot unlike the AK. In contrast however, its recoil is incredibly controllable, and its inaccuracy is very low, giving it more effective range compared to the AK.
Being an assault rifle, its rate of fire is high, higher than the AK-47, making it excellent at close to medium range. It is also lighter than most assault rifles.
The M4A1 is able to be equipped with a silencer, reducing the weapon’s noise level. The silencer is not attached when receiving the weapon, and can be manually attached (and detached) by pressing the secondary fire key. In GoldSrc games, the silencer increases damage but also increases damage falloff and reduces accuracy. In Source, the silencer doesn’t increase damage and only increases damage falloff.
Bots in Source will randomly attach the silencer, making them quite unpredictable on their approach with the weapon in question.
Weapons-Counter-Strike-M4A1
- The M4A1 is often the best general-purpose weapon for CTs in buy rounds due to its high effectiveness and cheapness.
- Due to the low recoil and good rate of fire, the M4A1 can be a deadly weapon against enemy players at close-range. Basically, users can continuously fire this rifle if they are accustomed to the recoil.
- Eliminating targets is normally easy; just be sure to score headshots and keep firing to finish off assailants.
- Aim for the chest and spray bullets when encountering an enemy assailant at medium range. This strategy may allow you to score a headshot. Alternatively, fire in bursts and aim for the head.
- Recoil has slightly increased in Source. Fire in bursts to maintain accuracy.
- Unlike the CV-47, this rifle is not made to engage enemy players at long range, although it is possible to successfully hit an opponent in the head.
- For long ranged combat, using a silencer may not be preferable unless enemy is not aware of your position. Firing in short bursts is recommended and avoid engaging snipers unless in close proximity.
- In the GoldSrc games, equipping the silencer increased the M4A1’s damage, at the cost of increased damage falloff and lower accuracy, relegating the rifle to close-range combat.
- If you plan to use the silencer, be sure to attach it before entering combat, preferably during freeze time.
- Because of the long length of the silencer, exercise caution when hiding near a corner as the long silencer may poke out of the corner, exposing the player. Point the weapon towards the inside of the corner.
- The M4A1 was to appear in Counter-Strike: Global Offensive as evidenced by Alpha screenshots. It was replaced by the M4A4 during the Beta.
