Which option is NOT a feature of the M4?

• A. Magazine fed
• B. Gas operated
• C. Water cooling
• D. Semi automatic

Answer: (C)

The M4 is magazine-fed, gas-operated, and semi-automatic. It is not water-cooled. Water cooling would require a water jacket or a cooling system around the barrel, which the M4 does not have; heat is managed mainly by air cooling and the barrel’s design. The magazine-fed aspect means it uses detachable box magazines, the gas-operated system drives the action to cycle rounds, and semi-automatic means one shot per trigger pull in standard configurations.
