suppressor. The flash suppressor also serves as a grenade launcher and bayonet mount.

Position secured by means of a spring loaded locking mechanism.
The Bolt carrier, which locks and unlocks the bolt, travels in the upper part of the receiver

The fire selector lever, when on safe position, positively blocks the trigger and covers
the slot in the cover in which the cocking lever travels, thus preventing the cocking of
the weapon and dirt from entering the mechanism.
