That's not an M4 but a SIG-552 and I've not heard anything about the SFs being disappointed by the M4- they ordered more just a few years back. Anyway the M4 is not the standard-issue assualt rifle of the PARA (SF)- that's the TAR-21, but the M4 is used by certain operators in certain mission profiles.

I didn't think so either but look closely, this is clearly not the M4 and looks like a SIG-552/3. The gas ejection holes are circular,,lso this rifle doesn't have the front iron sights present on the M4. Lastly the barrel looks fvery similar to the SIGs'.:
