While it has a similar capability to the standard F88 Austeyr, its simple gas-powered action tends not to jam in water and the modular design is more suited to clearance diving operations. The M4 comes with a range of attachments such as the Elcan Wildcat scope, PEQ-2 laser pointer and Surefire weapon light.
