1. THE ADDON
------------

This addon provides 14 variants of the famous Colt M4 assault rifle. Some special forces and special operations forces in Italy adopted this weapon for its versatility and reliability. The IX° Regiment used Steyr AUG before the M4 but they decided to replace it since the 96% of the AUGs (designed for european combat theatres) jammed in desertic operations. 
There are two main categories in which the M4s have been divided: the normal M4s and those with M203 attached. Furthermore, there are four types of different aiming devices: ironsight, Acog 4x, Aimpoint and Eotech Holo 550D. Every combination of rifle/aiming device comes with and without silencer and every weapon (but M4 SOPMOD and M4/M203 SOPMOD) use AN/PEQ-2 illuminator (visible laser dot cursor).

All the rifles use magazines from the PRPH AMMOMAGS addon:

prph_30x556mm_SA_mag      (bullets)
prph_30x556mm_SA_sub_mag  (bullets for silenced versions)
prph_20x40mm_GL_mag       (grenades)
prph_2x40mm_flareW  - white
prph_2x40mm_flareG  - green
prph_2x40mm_flareY  - yellow
prph_2x40mm_flareR  - red


M4 NAMING RULES: as you can easily see, the classnames of the rifles follow a repeating scheme. In order to remember easily these classes in the editor you just have to now how this pattern works:

Every rifle classname starts with the prph_M4_ prefix, then comes the type of the barrel (normal or with M203 attached), the firt two characters of the aiming device and, optionally, the S character if the weapon is silenced.

Barrel --> N = normal
           GL = grenade launcher

Aiming device --> AC = Acog                     
			AI = Aimpoint
                  EO = Eotech Holo
                  IR = Iron sight

Silenced      --> S

So, for example, if you want to use an M4 with M203, ACOG and SILENCER you need to write:

prph_M4_GL_AC_S

It's quite easy, isn't it?
