I also love marines, but i have a question why Royal marines use m4a1 carbine with such a small barrel.

[@l3gionmusic814]

It's the Colt C8 Canada I believe and is currently being used by parts of the Royal Marines with the intention of becoming the primary weapon for all Royal Marines as far as I know.

[@GuyWilson706]

I suspect that they are changing around a lot of their load outs based on the operating theatres of the Royal Marine are currently having to fight in. nowadays they are perhaps serving in their more traditional role which has been Naval and Amphibious, having a regular barrel length proves cumbersome for their current fighting dynamics so CQB and raiding vessels as such using Shorties are more effective with mobility when acquiring a target and fighting in those conditions. nevertheless they do use variants such as free floating barrels and RIS systems such as mk18s as an example. i’m merely speculating on whether they are multi adaptive with their load outs.
