A semi-auto Bushmaster Dissipator barrel which uses a similar short-barrel, standard length hand-guard concept to the CAR-15 Carbine. The Model 605A CAR-15 Carbine was a shortened version for situations where longer weapons could be unwieldy, such as aboard vehicles or helicopters. It was an improved version of the AR-15 SBR (Colt Model 605 ...
The Colt MARS (mini-assault rifle system) was an experimental, scaled-down variant of the M16 rifle tested by Colt as a personal defense weapon (PDW) around 1997. [2] It was chambered for the experimental 5.56×30mm MARS cartridge which is a shortened 5.56×45mm NATO round.
It appears that this round can drastically improve the performance of any AR-15 weapon chambered to .223/5.56 mm. Superior accuracy, wounding capacity, stopping power and range have made this the preferred round of many special forces operators, and highly desirable as a replacement for the older, Belgian-designed 5.56×45mm SS109/M855 NATO round.
The Armada is a select-fire rifle composed of two receivers (upper and lower) manufactured in forged aluminum, uses a 22 in (560 mm) barrel with a 1:9 right-hand twist (able to stabilize both M193 "Ball" and SS109/M855 variants of the 5.56mm cartridge), Norinco CQ-style plastic parts (grip, stock, handguard), flip-up rear sight adjustable for ...
The rifle is available with four barrel lengths and can be easily converted from a standard rifle (with a 16.5 inch barrel) into a carbine (with a 14.5 inch barrel), into a compact rifle (with a 10.5 inch barrel), or into a designated marksman rifle (with an 18-inch barrel) without any tools. Barrel lengths of the two calibres are exactly the same.
While modern firearms are generally referred to by the name of the cartridge the gun is chambered for, they are still categorized together based on bore diameter. [citation needed] For example, a firearm might be described as a "30 caliber rifle", which could accommodate any of a wide range of cartridges using a roughly 0.30 inches (7.6 mm) projectile; or as a "22 rimfire", referring to any ...
All SIG516 models except the Marksman are equipped with 16-inch (406 mm) barrels shrouded by a free-floating M1913 Picatinny rail, as well as flip-up iron sights made by SIG Sauer. [4] The 5.56×45mm NATO SIG516 models accept STANAG box magazines. These magazines are constructed in 5-, 10-, 20-, and 30-round variants.
