Principle of function Gas operated automatic rifle
The 7.62 mm AR-M1 belongs to the firearms whose action is based on the principle of conveying a part of the powder gases through a special port in the wall of the stationary barrel and their influence onto the bolt carrier.
The barrel chamber is closed by turn of the bolt and engaging the firing stops in the receiver.
The receiver is made from hot die forged solid blank followed by milling operations.
The barrel and chamber are chromium plated.
The weapon is fed from a 30-round arcuated staggered magazine, manufactured from glass fiber reinforced polycaproamide.
The handguards, the butt and the pistol grip are made from fiber glass reinforced polycaproamide.
The sigh consists of sectors marked for shooting at a distance of up to 800 m.
The hammer-trigger mechanism has a hammer, which is activated by firing spring. This mechanism has a safety device-safety for setting from single to automatic fire mode as well as contrariwise. The safety simultaneously serves as well as a safety level preventing the accidental shoots. It is located on the right hand side of the receiver and is formed as a long pivoted lever. When set in the utmost upper position the trigger is blocked. In this position the safety serves two other functions:
– prevents contaminating of the receiver through the bolt carrier handle slot in the receiver cover;
– prevents from reloading the barrel chamber.
The Assault Rifle design allows the attachment of 40x46mm ARSENAL UBGL-M6, UBGL-M8 and 40mm ARSENAL UBGL or GP-25, GP-30 Underbarrel Grenade Launchers, and firing with them.
