The weapon was developed for motorized infantry, adopted for service with
the Soviet Army in 1949 and designated the AK-47. It was not provided with a
bayonet.
The C7A1 assault rifle is an improved version of the basic C7 combat rifle,
incorporating a low-mounted optical sight. The C7 rifle is a Canadian
adaptation of a U.S. firearm known as the M16A1E1. The C7A1 eliminates the
carrying handle of the C7 and substitutes an optical sight. The C7A1 assault
rifle is the personal weapon for most soldiers in Canada and outside the
country.

M16A2 5.56mm
Primary function: Infantry weapon
Manufacturer: Colt Manufacturing and Fabrique Nationale Manufacturing Inc.
Length: 39.63 inches 100.66 centimeters
Weight, with 30 round magazine: 8.79 pounds 3.99 kilograms
Bore diameter: 5.56mm .233 inches
Maximum effective range:
Area target: 2,624.8 feet 800 meters
Point target: 1,804.5 feet 550 meters
Muzzle velocity: 2,800 feet 853 meters per second
Rate of fire:
Cyclic: 800 rounds per minute
Sustained: 12-15 rounds per minute
Semiautomatic: 45 rounds per minute
Burst: 90 rounds per minute
Magazine capacity: 30 rounds
Unit Replacement Cost: $586
Features: The M16A2 5.56mm rifle is a lightweight, air-cooled, gas-operated,
magazine-fed, shoulder- or hip-fired weapon designed for either automatic
fire 3-round bursts or semiautomatic fire single shot through the use of
a selector lever. The weapon has a fully adjustable rear sight. The bottom
of the trigger guard opens to provide access to the trigger while wearing
winter mittens. The upper receiver/barrel assembly has a fully adjustable
rear sight and a compensator which helps keep the muzzle down during firing.
The steel bolt group and barrel extension are designed with locking lugs
which lock the bolt group to the barrel extension allowing the rifle to have
a lightweight aluminum receiver.
Background: The M16A2 rifle is a product improvement of the M16A1 rifle. The
improvements are:
* a heavier, stiffer barrel than the barrel of the M16A1
* a redesigned handguard, using two identical halves, with a round contour
which is sturdier and provides a better grip when holding the rifle
* a new buttstock and pistol grip made of a tougher injection moldable
plastic that provides much greater resistance to breakage
* an improved rear sight which can be easily adjusted for windage and range
* a modified upper receiver design to deflect ejected cartridges, and
preclude the possibility of the ejected cartridges hitting the face of a
left-handed firer
* a burst control device, that limits the number of rounds fired in the
automatic mode to three per trigger pull, which increases accuracy while
reducing ammunition expenditure
* a muzzle compensator, designed to reduce position disclosure and improve
controllability and accuracy in both burst and rapid semi-automatic fire
* a heavier barrel with a 1 in 7 twist to fire NATO standard SS 109 type
M855 ammunition which is also fired from the M249 Squad Automatic Weapon
SAW. This further increases the effective range and penetration of the
rifle cartridge. The M16A2 will also shoot the older M193 ammunition
designed for a 1 in 12 twist.
