The 5.56 mm AR-M8F is a highly effective automatic weapon designed for the antipersonnel role at range of 500m. The system operates on propellant gasses diverted through a vent in the barrel.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 weapon is fed from a 30-round arcuated staggered magazine, manufactured from glass fiber reinforced polycaproamide.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.
