Yes...I suppose. The current gen of WE's that I'm seeing. Most common around here with the half clear lowers.

When I was describing the "gen3" a while ago...it wasn't really a full gen release...more like a gen 2.5 where just the nozzle/chamber was changed over to standardize with the new "CO2" version that came out with the SCAR.

The lastest ones are called Gen 3. In addition to the nozzle/chamber, they are supposed to come with the black hopup rubber, different finish on the bolt (nice), the forward assist now has a retaining screw (so it doesn't pop off) and probably some other bits that I've forgotten.

The RIS setups on the CQBR's is very, very nice.

For my rifle (a gen 2), the M4A1 rifle came with a 14.5" outer barrel that could be unscrewed and changed to a 10.5" barrel. Threading on both lengths was CCW.

On the Gen3 CQBR...I thought that it was CW...just wasn't sure. (I've actually got one in the workshop, but someone asked me a question and I couldn't remember off hand).
