PREFACE
This guide is intended to provide information on the
identification, physical characteristics, operation and functioning,
user maintenance, accessories, and ammunition of free world small
arms. No attempt has been made to provide instruction for
complete maintenance and repair.
This fourth edition differs from the August 1973 edition
(ST-HB-07-163-74) in that it adds information on weapons not
covered in earlier editions, and adds additional weapons used by
second-line units, militia, and police.* This guide does not provide
information on US small arms or small arms of Communist origin.
The latter weapons are covered in DST-1110H-394-76, Small Arms
Identification and Operation Guide-Eurasian Communist
Countries,
This guide covers, in order, pistols, submachineguns, rifles, and
machineguns. Individual sections provide information on specific
weapon models: general information, technical data, operation of
the weapon, disassembly and assembly, and functioning of the
mechanism and accessories normally used with the basic weapon.
The disassembly and assembly procedures described are limited to
those operations required by the user to maintain the weapon
properly. Detailed or complete disassembly should not be
undertaken because of the danger of lost or broken parts, which
would render the weapon unuseable. Major parts (such as bolts
and trigger mechanisms) should not be interchanged between
weapons; these parts are usually numbered to specific weapons,
and their use in other weapons could cause malfunctions.
*Pages requiring no changes are reprinted and therefore bear the previous short title and
date, Amended and new pages bear the current short title and date.
iiiDST-1110H-163-76-CHG 1 5 September 1980
Unless otherwise specified, the weapons covered
herein should be cleaned and lubricated with the
same materials and techniques used for standard US
small arms. Special care should be taken to remove
the firing residue from the components of the gas
mechanism of gas-operated arms.
Many military weapons have "V"-notch rear sights and
post front sights. The correct sight picture with
this type of sight is identical with that used for
the US Pistol, Caliber 45 M1911Al. The front sight
is centered in the notch with the top of the front
sight level with the top of the rear sight. This
sight picture is held at the point where it is
desired that the bullet strike. To zero a weapon's
sights, move them so that the relative motion of the
rear sight is in the same direction as it is desired
to move the strike of the bullet. Practical range,
as used in this publication, is defined by FSTC as
that range at which the average trained rifleman can
be expected to hit a man-sized target with approxi-
mately 50% of his shots.
Constructive criticisms, comments, or suggested
changes are encouraged and should be forwarded to
the Defense Intelligence Agency, Washington,
DC 20301 (ATTN: DT).
