| From the Bushmaster
Armpistol Manual - The Bushmaster weapons system was based on the function
and operating principles of the patented IMP aircrew survival weapon designed
at the United States Air Force Armament Laboratory at Eglin Air Force Base.
Subsequent design changes integrated the battle proven characteristics of
the U. S. military M16 and the unexcelled gas system of the Russian military
AK-47; thus attaining the simplicity and functionability of the current
Bushmaster production. By consistently and methodically applying these principles, it has been possible to make a high percentage of all individual parts in the various weapons comprising the Bushmaster system identical and thus interchangeable both among our various models and with the Colt M16. The overall concept of the U. S. M16 and Soviet AK-47 have been in military use for many years and both countries continue to produce these proven designs in large quantities. Along with these concepts, the utilization of all practicable new developments in the field of weapons technology, improved materials and the empl.bymenVs of the most advanced machine tools and special equipment insures that the shooter has at his disposal a weapon of .. sophisticated design and technology. |
