'''GTA Vice City (1986)''': Modeled after a Colt Model 733, incorrectly titled "M4" within the game (the M4 was not introduced until 1994). It appears to have a Crane Stock instead of the original retracting stock. Originally, an M16A2 was meant to be in the game but it was later replaced by the 733. It's model can still be found in the game's files and it can be seen in some cutscenes (more notably - one of the deal ambushers during the intro cutscene is wielding one). | '''GTA Vice City (1986)''': Modeled after a Colt Model 733, incorrectly titled "M4" within the game (the M4 was not introduced until 1994).

'''GTA San Andreas (1992)''': Reused Colt Model 733, again | '''GTA San Andreas (1992)''': Reused Colt Model 733, again titled "M4" in-game. This version has an unrealistic reload animation wherein [[Carl Johnson|CJ]] charges the weapon with his left hand — real M733s are charged with a rear-mounted handle. This rendition has a 50-round magazine, not possible with real-life M733s, although they can use various STANAG magazines. In the mission [[Stowaway]], a government agent is shown holding a camouflaged Colt M16A1; this, however, is never available to use in-game. | ||
'''GTA Liberty City Stories (1998)''': Reused Colt Model 733, once again titled "M4" in-game. Has a realistic rate of fire, unlike its GTA III counterpart, but, like the San Andreas rendition, the reload animation is inaccurate. | '''GTA Liberty City Stories (1998)''': Reused Colt Model 733, once again titled "M4" in-game, which is chronologically accurate. Has a realistic rate of fire, unlike its GTA III counterpart, but, like the San Andreas rendition, the reload animation is inaccurate. | ||
'''GTA III (2001)''': | '''GTA III (2001)''': Resembling the similar Armalite AR10, it is referred to as an M16. This version is a highly inaccurate and exaggerated weapon, with a 60-round magazine and an exceptionally high rate of fire. It is also missing the delta ring and is very boxy due to its low poly-count. | ||
'''GTA IV (2008)''': An M4A1, titled "Carbine Rifle" in-game. This version is accurate both in timeline and overall features, although it sports a rear drum sight and lacks a carry handle, giving it some resemblance to the similarly-designed Heckler and Koch HK416. It is the longest-ranged non-sniper weapon in the game. It has "Property of Liberty City Arms" stamped where the magazine release is normally found, probably a reference to the "Property of U.S. Govt" stamped on its real-life counterpart. The bottom of the magazine is also stamped with the words "Stop Chillin Start Killin" | '''GTA IV (2008)''': An M4A1, titled "Carbine Rifle" in-game.
