Army: Rifles
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, pursuant to the Answer of 8 September to Question 71983 on Army: Rifles, what upgrades were made to the L129 rifle as part of the upgrade to A2 configuration.
Answered by Luke Pollard
Upgrades made include a new monolithic upper receiver with an M-LOK handguard that is more comfortable and allows the attachment of ancillaries. The butt stock has been replaced to allow users to adjust for their size and equipment. The new L129A2 rifles also include an improved safety catch, a new flash eliminator that enables the future fitment of signature reduction devices.
