The very fact that the M4A1 can be bought for a day is the reason why the M4A1 is better for GP-only people.

The M416 for 1 week is what, 5000+ GP? The M4A1 is only 4000ish, I think... That's a big difference for casual players, since 1 game is about 300-400 GP for them. This is why I think the M4A1 is more preferred for GP-only people.

That's just me, tho. I understand your stance, I can see why you think the M4 leads to the M416 series.
