| The
design construction of the CIS 40 is kept
simple with six main assemblies in modular
form : feed cover assembly, trigger mechanism
and rear sight assembly, barrell assembly,
receiver assembly, bolt and backplate assembly
and the detachable chute assembly. This
make the CIS 40 a more user friendly weapon
that allows for lesser maintenance and a
significant reduction of spare inventory.
The CIS 40 has various mounting options
for different tactical applications, the
CIS 40 can be mounted on a M3 standard tripod,
a light weigh tripod, a lock/fire mount
(for logistic/utility vehicles, lighr strike
vehicles or naval craft), a softmount (for
enhancing the controllability and accuracy
with its recoil reduction capabilities),
a ringmount or on a integrated remote control
weapon station for mounting on AFVs or APCs.
Three sight systems are available : a reflex
sight, the Fire Control System for a enhanced
system accuracy or a thermal sight. |
