Description
Description — Carbine
The Carbine program supports the National Defense Strategy (NDS) of "Build a More Lethal Force" through enhancement of Joint Lethality in contested environments by minimizing and eliminating erosion of close combat capability relative to peer competitors in complex terrain. This funding line is used to procure M4A1 Carbines for the Army and 30 round Enhanced Performance Magazine (EPM). The M4A1 Carbines are 5.56mm, gas operated, air-cooled weapons designed for lightness, speed, mobility and firepower. The M4A1 Carbine is a more compact weapon than the M16 rifle series since it uses a shorter barrel and collapsible stock. When compared to the M4 Carbine, the M4A1 Carbine has a (safe/semi-automatic/full automatic) trigger group, with a heavier barrel thickness to support increased sustained rates of fire, and an ambidextrous fire control selector. The M4A1 Carbine also includes a back-up iron sight and the adapter rail system to attach accessories and components.
