http://www.colt22rimfire.com/index.php?page=videos Here is a link to Colt's video for field stripping and cleaning. This is a good thing to watch, because the written instructions provided with the rifle does not mention that you HAVE to unscrew the compensator 2 turns before trying to remove the rear receiver pin. Next time I clean mine I will take pics and post - as I take it down a bit further. TM

Thanks, and thanks Steel 609. TM

I have had my M4 for about 3 weeks. Put a scope on it right away - 6x32 Leapers MilDot. This is without a doubt the most fun gun I have shot. Handles well, after the first 20 - 30 rounds, no stoppages except with one brand of ammo. (Remington) I have two 30 round mags, both function flawlessly, and are easy to load. I was disappointed with the "Official" Colt cleaning procedure - the use of spray cleaner has never been my favorite, but Colt insists that anything beyond removing 1 pin would violate the warranty. But overall, I really like the gun!

Howdy - I have a Colt M-4 with a Leapers 6x32 Mil dot scope. All shooting was @ 50 yds, bench rest. Started with Federal 36 grain plated HP's intermittently available @ WalMart in 375 & 550 round value packs. It works very well, no stoppages and excellent accuracy @ 50 yds. Best so far. Remington 22 Cyclone cycled OK, but shot to the right and would not group. Win Super X plated HP was OK, but had a few fliers. Win Wildcat cycled OK, but the target looked more like a shotgun target than a rifle target. Remington Golden Bullet value pack was a problem - a few jams & not so good on the accuracy. Golden Eagle Target - (made in Mexico) - was very accurate, shot 2 inches lower than the Federal. Just received 2000 rounds of BVAC - have not yet tried it - have read positive and negative reviews of it. Will post back with a review. Techmike
