? Will be zeroed to 100m like all other Carbines I'd imagine and be accurate to 300-500m

same as a normal assault rifle, basically the closest we can get it to what it is in r/l.
the M4
A1 (not the M4) is the carbine with the shorer barrel.

zeroed to 100m in bf2 means it will start to bullet drop after 100m ?

Rhino, they are both Carbines of the M16. Difference is M4A1 has Full auto, whereas M4 has S-1-3
Going down:
M16A1 (S-1-A)
M16A2 (S-1-3)
M4 (S-1-3)
M16A4 (S-1-3
Gazz- It means it will hit the exact aim point at 100m. Bullets travel in a parabolic trajectory and the position they are "zeroed" at is the distance in which the bullet is at the same height as the end of the barrel.

what is the name given to the M4 with a long barrel then? I am pretty sure that is a M4, and in that pic there thats a M4A1.

The M4 with a long barrel IS the m16a4 rhino.

No, M4 and M4A1 have the same barrel length. The M733 or M4 CQB have a shorter barrel.

lol yeah. In the pic the M4 shown is indeed a M4 (Not M4A1). As said, the larger version of the M4 is the M16A2/A4

I dont mean to sound rude but i hope there are more than a couple of humvees. That would be cool to see almost a whole team in humvees rolling around(as that would be the only way to get around besides walking).
BTW This map looks real nice. I love the buildings.

Iron speaks truth.
Other night on TG's EJOD. Got 44-1 KD in an APC with INF support.
Dont forget that this wernt no insurgency, this was the conventional MEC, with their MBTs, HATs, APCs, TOWs, LATs, AAAs mines etc.
The trick was simple. Let an INF squad go first and just shadow them, sometimes busting the 'Pwnzer Paust-Blitzkrieg' flanking maneuver every now and then.
Back to the matter at hand...
I say US army(Hooha!).....WITH an USMC night map version(OohRah!)!
A few street lamps, moonlight and the odd fire..sounds like a date

Mong, if you hadn't murdered the Hooah and Oorah that would've been a great post

let us be nice one time, and admit, that the idea of a day/night version with army and usmc is really nice, also i would rather like a dawn version, since im not a fan of night maps

YES TO MONGO's Idea!
Yea,AH-6 "LittleBirds" would be beautiful on this map.One with Miniguns,and one With Miniguns+Hyrdas.Then a few Black Hawks?The M2 Bradley in USI should be an icon for other mods.They made their own model,they got the 7.62 co-axil machinegun on it enabled,and the TOW missle pods.If this is for Marines,they should get following:
USMC
EVERYTHING THEY HAD IN BASRAH EXCEPT:
A-10's
2x Cobras
Instead they should get to replace those:
2x AH-6 "LitteBird" (1 with 2 miniguns,1 with hydras+miniguns)
No Jets.
Now If the U.S. ARMY gets this map,which I hope they do,they should get this:
EVERYTHING USMC HAVE IN BASRAH BUT WITH A FEW REPLACMENTS!
LAV-25=Stryker/M2 Bradley (don't know PR U.S. ARMY APC yet)
