Yep around 75%.
All of the internals in the lower are virtually the same, the recoil spring is obviously of less strength but it's still the same size and length, the bolt carrier is again the same size/dimensions and functions in a similar way - but obviously doesn't chamber a round.
The upper and lower receivers are manufactured by VLTOR specifically as a PTW (Professional Training Weapon) within the legal realms of Airsoft. The barrel and chamber (hop-up) is the major difference, you can't retrofit this with a real counterpart.
The buffer tube on this is commercial sized, the butt-stock, pistol grip and BAD lever are all genuine Magpul, as is the Daniel Defense rail.
If you take a look at my website: www.tactial-training-solutions.net and follow the weapons skills link, there's a detailed series of photographs of the rifle, you will note that it's mechanical operation in terms of physical use is identical to that of a real M4.
I've shot this regularly at 620 feet per second, the optics are all fully functional and accurate, I use this for polishing my own CQB marksmanship given that I'm not legally permitted to own and operate such a (real) weapon in the UK and, the actual amount of time I get to spend on military ranges is only about four times a year so, having this means I can apply all of the techniques and skills normally associated with live fire environments on a far more regular basis.
Plus I get to make a little cash on the side teaching a little of that stuff to Walter Mitty airsoft types :-)
