Book Description
The purpose of this test was to determine if production-line samples of M16 rifles would comply with performance specifications; to detect any design, manufacturing, or inspection deficiencies; and to determine the accuracy and the ability of the rifle to function when subjected to automatic-fire roles and under various adverse conditions. The test was conducted between 26 May and 14 September 1964.

The Gun
Author: C. J. Chivers
Publisher: Simon and Schuster
ISBN: 0743271734
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 496
Book Description
The author, a New York Times reporter, traces the invention and mass distribution of the AK-47 assault rifle, and its effects on war. He traces the invention of the assault rifle, following the miniaturization of rapid-fire arms from the American Civil War, through World War I and Vietnam, to present-day Afghanistan, where Kalashnikovs and their knockoffs number as many as 100 million, one for every seventy persons on earth. It is the weapon of state repression, as well as revolution, civil war, genocide, drug wars, and religious wars; and it is the arms of terrorists, guerrillas, boy soldiers, and thugs. From its inception to its use by more than fifty national armies around the world, to its role in modern-day Afghanistan, he discusses how the deadly weapon has helped alter world history.

Book Description
This test consisted of the firing of cartridges crimped to 100 pound average bullet pull (normal representative production value), 35 pound average bullet pull (minimum specification requirement) and uncrimped cartridges, all reassembled without propellant from each of two 5.56mm, ball, M193 cartridge lots (LC12507 and TW18310) in each of three M16A1 Rifles with varying records of rounds fired.

Investigation of 5.56mm, Cartridge Lot LC-12387 in Standard 5.56mm, M16A1 Rifles

Languages : en
Pages : 28
Book Description
This report is concerned with a limited investigation of the 5.56mm cartridge, lot LC-12387, fired from M16A1 rifles using the standard flash suppressor, FSN-1005-933-8089. Two 5000-round confirmatory tests were fired in M16A1 rifles at Frankford Arsenal using ammunition lot LC-12387. These tests have indicated the adequacy of this ammunition when fired in standard rifles with standard flash suppressors. There was no significant accumulation of cartridge residue in the bolt-carrier group of either of the test rifles. Residue accumulation in the gas tube appeared normal as indicated by air flow readings and weight measurements. Review of test data contained in U.S. Army Human Engineering Laboratories (USAHEL) Letter Report No. 88 has indicated that the use of noise suppressing muzzle attachments can seriously affect gas tube life in the M16A1 rifles.

Book Description
A test was conducted with 7.62mm and 5.56mm, G-3 Assault Rifles to evaluate and compare the kinematics, reliability, safety features, physical characteristics, recoil impulse, rates of fire, projectile velocities, muzzle motion and accuracy of the weapons. No serious problems were detected during the tests and the reliability of the weapons was comparable.
