Yeah. You're M4gery has a 16" barrel doesn't it?
If it had the 14.5" barrel the bayo ring would ride on the flash suppressor. |

Sorry about that.... yea, I meant for the 16" BBL fake M4..... Mine has an A2 supressor at the tip... looking for a bayonet that'll fit it correctly.

+1 That extra barrel, due to lengthening it ti 16'', causes your problem. No link, but some place offers modified bayonets that will fit 16'' barrels and even one that fits 11.5'' if im not mistaken. - BG |

Military rifles have either 20" or 14.5" barrels, and the distance between the front sight and the flash suppressor are the same on both, so that bayonets fit correctly. 16" barrels are not standard military issue, and really only exist due to NFA rules.
The PreBanArms lengthened bayonets are about the best bet for 16" barrels. But it's a lot to spend on something that you'll probably never really use. -Troy |

I agree.... $65 isn't worth it. The one at the gun show was $25... I could drop $25 on it for the novlety, but not $65.

There are also clamp on bayonet lugs that you can mount ahead of the front sight base so that the bayonet will fit correctly on the flash suppressor.
Can't remember if it was Bushmaster or DPMS that had them. Might get some funny looks from people though if they knew that you actually purposely put a bayonet lug on your rifle with the intent that at some point you will need a bayonet. Atleast you could mount the bayonet at cool angles like 12 o'clock or 3 o'clock then :) |
