Description
Double Bell M4 AEG (Full Metal CNC – Tan – 080S)
The Double Bell M4 080S is a full metal electric airsoft rifle (AEG) in tan, with CNC-machined construction according to its listing. It follows the familiar M4 carbine layout used by armed forces around the world, which makes it one of the most practical and versatile platforms in airsoft.
Double Bell, also sold under the D|Boys name, is a Chinese manufacturer known for full metal AEGs at accessible prices, and its AR-pattern rifles have earned a reputation as dependable, upgrade-friendly platforms. This tan M4 suits newcomers looking for a solid first rifle, and experienced players who want a metal-bodied carbine to use as it is or as the basis for upgrades. The tan finish is the main difference from the black 080 version.
Build and materials
The rifle is listed as full metal with CNC-machined parts. A metal body gives a rigid, solid feel with very little flex or creak, and stands up well to the knocks of regular skirmishing, from leaning into barricades to crawling through woodland. Please check the product photos for the exact handguard, stock, sights and rails on this version, as the listing does not describe them in detail.
The M4 platform
The M4 is the most widely copied rifle in airsoft, and that brings real advantages. Controls fall naturally to hand, magazines, slings, optics and grips are easy to find, and parts and upgrades are widely available. The carbine length is a good all-round choice: short enough to move through buildings and woodland easily, but long enough for steady aimed shots across open ground.
Setting it up
Fit a red dot or holographic sight to the top rail for fast target acquisition, and a sling so you can carry the rifle comfortably all day. Set the hop-up with the BB weight you intend to use: 0.25g BBs are a popular starting point for AEGs, and adjusting the hop until BBs fly flat and straight makes the most of the rifle’s range. Have the rifle chronographed at your site before play.

Compatibility
Double Bell M4 rifles are designed around the AR platform, and most standard M4/M16 AEG magazines from major brands should fit, but test a new brand before relying on it in a game. Standard 20mm optics and accessories suit the rails. Check the battery space and connector type in the photos or ask us before buying a battery, and consider a MOSFET if you plan to run a LiPo.
Care and maintenance
Disconnect and remove the battery after every game, and never store the rifle with the battery plugged in. Charge batteries with a suitable charger, never leave them charging unattended, and store LiPo batteries at storage charge somewhere cool and dry.
Use good quality seamless 6mm BBs, as poor or damaged BBs are the main cause of jams and hop-up wear. Clean the inner barrel regularly with a cleaning rod and a soft cloth, wipe the outside down after wet or muddy games, and keep the rifle somewhere dry between games.
Who is it for?
Players who want a full metal M4 at an accessible price, whether as a first serious rifle or as a dependable base for upgrades, and anyone building a desert or tan-themed loadout.
Please note: Battery, charger and BBs are not listed as included, so please ask us if you need them. Always wear suitable eye and face protection when using airsoft replicas, and check your site’s rules and power limits before play.
