Weapons of the Shadow Wolves

The M-4 is the current long gun used the Shadow Wolves,
the weapon is a semi and 3 burst selection
.
The M-4 (Colt model 727) is the US armed force's latest assault rifle. It is tailored for use where light weight and quick action are required. The stock is colapsible for compact storage and operations and the M203 grenade launcher can also be fitted for increased firepower. A revised rear sight allows for better control of the weapon out to the maximum range of the ammunition.

A revised rear sight allows for better control of the weapon out to the maximum range of the ammunition.

   A shortened variant of the M16A2 rifle, the M4 rifle provides the individual soldier operating in close quarters the capability to engage targets at extended range with accurate, lethal fire. The M4 Carbine achieves over 80% commonality with the M16A2 Rifle

   The M-4 has interchangeable sighting systems, add-on vertical forward grips and even a detachable short version of the M-203 grenade launcher.

    The rifle itself is one full pound lighter than the M-16A2 and 10 inches shorter. The collapsible buttstock is designed to make it more adaptable to individual shooters, a benefit especially in tight-packed urban areas.

    Some features compared to a full length M16A2 rifle include:

  • Compact size
  • Shorter barrel
  • Collapsable butt-stock
  • Higher rate of fire
  • Selective full-automatic

   The compact GLOCK 19 is a reduced-size version of the GLOCK 17. The smaller size of the GLOCK 19 makes it an extremely attractive pistol to those searching for an effective concealed carry firearm.

The original GLOCK pistol, the 9x19 GLOCK 17, was the first firearm to feature the innovative Safe Action Safety System

    The GLOCK 26, often referred to as the "Baby GLOCK," has created a true and practical autopistol alternative to the standard five-shot snub-nose revolver.
