In the manga story later on, US spec ops appeared in the story with M4s with Eotechs attached. The M4s put the story after 1994 when the M4A1 was introduced into US service and now you say that EOtechs were first made in 96, so the story I guess is about 1996 then.
You're over-thinking this. I think it's much more likely that the writers/animators simply didn't know when either the M4 or the Holosight was introduced, and it's such a minor detail, anyway, that I doubt they'd care.
