M4 Barrel extension?
 
2 Attachment(s)
Hey all,
I have a M4 with the short CQB style barrel like the first pic, but would like a longer barrel like the second pic. Do I have to switch out the entire barrel, or is there an adaptor? I have seen screw on extensions for M4's on Ebaybanned and the like and was wondering if those look any good?

Thx,
J

Depends CW or CCW, then you might need an adaptor for it.

i recommend to have one piece outer barrel because barrel extension is easy to install, but it does not have same strength as one piece barrel does.

it wobbles a lot. Check old TM M4 series (M4 RIS or older models)

Thundercustom (Local winnipeg machinist) makes excellent barrel extentions. They're about 5.5" long and match the OD of an M4 length barrel perfectly!

100% Canadian product too :)

Sorry for the ignorance, but what exactly does CW/CCW stand for? In case its not obvious, Im new to the world of Airsoft ; )

The term is used in more than just airsoft.

CC: Close wise
CCW: Counter clock wise

For myself I wouldnt bother with an extension, I would just purchase an entire new barrel. Simply because I believe a one piece would be more reliable than a two piece. An extension would be alright if you are not comfortable with the requied partial dissasembly of your AEG.
