The 16-year-old was arrested on suspicion of attempted murder after the violence earlier this week.
Locals reported fighting and a gun being fired at a car on Reedswood Lane in Birchills, Walsall, at around 11.50pm on Wednesday.
The four injured men were taken to hospital, though one was subsequently discharged, arrested and taken into custody. The other three remained in hospital on Friday, with police saying none were in a life-threatening condition.
On Saturday, a spokesperson for West Midlands Police said: "The teenager remains in custody for questioning.
"Our enquiries are continuing and anyone with information is asked to contact us."
A car was left under a tarpaulin on Thursday morning, alongside two smaller forensic tents. Officers recovered a gun and a machete from the scene.
A 26-year-old man has also been arrested on suspicion of wounding. He's since been placed on bail.
The force has also activated its Major Incident Public Portal for people to upload images or video that can help detectives understand what happened.
