Inner Barrel Upgrade

WIll the prometheus 500-something mm inner barrel w/6.03mm tightbore fit a
CA M15A4?

The site (precision airsoft) says that its for m16/m4 but there was no barrel specifcally for the m15. I thought that the m15 and the m16 were kinda the same gun but im probably mistaken and i dont want to spend $60 on the wrong barrel.

Also, are red dot scopes any good/worth it?

thanks

Barrel length for the M15A4 Carbine is 363mm, so you'll have an extended barrel out which you can cover with a silencer/surpressor. Only the M15A4 RIFLE has a 509mm barrel.

I have heard that having a longer barrel and a smaller tightbore results in better accuracy. Would it be bad to have a longer barrel that I have to cover with a silencer? Would it really make a difference?

I play mostly woodland, so now that I think about it a really long barrel may be annoying to hide in a bush, but then again it might not matter. Also, what is involved in installing a new inner barrel? I've never taken apart my mechbox. Is it just as simple as take of the old one and pop on the new one?

Before you do upgrades, any upgrades, I strongly suggest you go watch a local expert do them. Then you will know what is needed, why it's needed, and if it's needed. Asking on a forum in a different country will not help you achieve your goals.

There's a limit on what we can show you in writing.
