Over there they are looking at the M4 as a fighting rifle not a lower quality plinker.

Yeah, except the vast majority of the posters on that board are a bunch of arrogant, condescending asshats. They love to hold up "objective standards" for M-4's. However, they hate on PSA because "they haven't been around long enough to be trusted" even though they meet the same standards as other "tier 1" brands. They also trash Spikes Tactical because of the logos,etc.

They have a complete inability to acknowledge that the vast majority of M-4 owners don't need or want a battle rifle, and love to tell anyone that doesn't own a BCM, Colt, DD, Noveske or LaRue that their rifle is crap, they've wasted money, and that they should pawn their no-good rifle off on someone else and get something that is "G2G" ASAP, or else.

There might be some good info on that sight, but having to wade through the arrogant attitudes of most of the posters doesn't make it worth finding.
