In 5.56x45, the CM901 and M16 are an even match. In 7.62x39 and 7.62x51, the CM901 is considerably more powerful.

What are the benifts for the rifle?

if you mean as opposed to a musket the rifling inside the barrel causes the bullet to spin which makes much more powerful and accurate. as opposed to a pistol, smg, lmg, or sniper rifle, an assault rifle is usually about 6-8 pounds which makes it easier to maneuver than an lmg or sniper, but more powerful than a pistol or smg


Difference between a carbine and a assault rifle?

An assault rifle is a rifle that has more than 22'' inches of barrel and has selective firing rate, while the carbine rifle has a less 22'' inches barrel and semi automatic. ^^ Wrong.. An assault rifle is any select fire rifle that is chambered for an intermediate cartridge... Barrel length has nothing to do with it. The M16 has a 20" barrel length and is considered an assault rifle. The AK47 has a 16" barrel and is considered an assault rifle... Carbines that are select fire and chambered in an intermediate cartridge are still considered assault rifles.


Is a rifle the most powerfullest gun ever?

First, it is rifle, not riffle. Second, no, or we would shoot tanks with a rifle. Cannon are more powerful. Finally, depends on the rifle. I have a .22 rifle and a .44 magnum pistol. The pistol is far more powerful than the rifle. I also have a .22 pistol, and a 30-06 rifle. The rifle is far more powerful than the pistol (in THAT example).


What is the most effective assault rifle?

"Kalashnikov AK-47 AKM Assault Rifle" Is the most effective assault rifle yet invented, of course, there are many versions of this rifle, but it is powerful, cheap, deadly, and pretty much accurate on an assault-range. ^^^ Wrong.... wrong on so many levels. The AK47 and AKM are two different rifles. The AKM is an improved version. And its main weakness is that it fires that terrible 7.62 round... The AK74 is a completely superior gun. More accurate, better ballistics with the 5.45 round, less recoil, lighter etc.

Does the color of a rifle make it an assault rifle?

No. The function of it is what makes it an assault rifle. An assault rifle fires an intermediate cartridge and has a select fire option (either auto or burst). In the political sense, the determination of what made a so-called "civilian assault weapon" was determined by the BATF (now BATFE) based on the presence of two or more cosmetic features (such as bayonet lugs, pistol grips, and flash suppressors).


Is your sks an assault rifle?

Assault rifle is a legal term, and laws vary place to place. Under MOST of them, it is a centerfire semi-auto rifle larger than 22 caliber, with a removeable magazine that holds more than 10 rounds, and a pistol grip. The SKS does not have a pistol grip, and has a fixed 10 round magazine. Not an assault rifle.
