full_context: Document 1: SA80: The SA80 is a British family of 5.56 × 45mm NATO small arms, all of which are selective fire, gas - operated assault rifle s. The L85 rifle variant of the SA80 family has been the standard issue service rifle of the British Armed Forces since 1987, replacing the L1A1 variant of the FN FAL. The first prototypes were created in 1976, with production ending in 1994. The A1 variant was significantly upgraded in the early 2000s by Heckler & Koch as the SA80A2 and remains in service as of 2017. In mid-2016 a prototype A3 variant was showcased which further improved on the weapon and is reportedly being considered to extend the out of service date beyond 2025.
Document 2: SAR 21: The SAR 21 ("Singapore Assault Rifle - 21st Century") is a bullpup assault rifle designed and manufactured in Singapore. First revealed and subsequently adopted by the Singapore Armed Forces (SAF) in 1999, it was designed and developed over a four-year period and was intended to replace the locally license-built M16S1 by the Ministry of Defence (MINDEF), Singapore Army and the Chartered Industries of Singapore (CIS, now ST Kinetics). Many of its design features are directly intended to counter the weaknesses of the M16S1 as encountered operationally by some infantrymen.
Document 3: AR-15 style rifle: In 1956, ArmaLite designed a lightweight assault rifle for military use and designated it the ArmaLite Rifle - 15, or AR - 15. Due to financial problems, and limitations in terms of manpower and production capacity, ArmaLite sold the design and the AR - 15 trademark along with the ArmaLite AR - 10 to Colt's Manufacturing Company in 1959. In 1964, Colt began selling its own version with an improved semi-automatic design known as the Colt AR - 15. After Colt's patents expired in 1977, an active marketplace emerged for other manufacturers to produce and sell their own semi-automatic AR - 15 style rifles. Some versions of the AR - 15 were classified as ``assault weapons ''and banned under the Federal Assault Weapons Ban.
Document 4: Jimmy Montgomerie: Born in Scotland, Montgomerie was playing in Montreal by 1915 when he was part of the Montreal All Star team which lost to the Toronto All Stars during their annual inter-city clash.

During that war, he served as a lieutenant and won the Military Medal and the Military Cross with bar. After the war, he returned to Canada. In 1922, he played for Montreal’s Grenadier Guards when they won the Quebec Cup. In 1924, Montgomerie moved south to join the New Bedford Whalers of the American Soccer League.

Document 6: ArmaLite AR-10: The final Artillerie Inrichtingen design is known as the "Portuguese" model AR-10. This final version incorporated all that had been learned to date about the AR-10, including infantry service rifle and field test reports. In addition to a heavier barrel with chrome-lined chamber, optional bipod, and the removable plastic/metal handguards of the Transitional model, the Portuguese variant had wider bolt lugs, a stronger extractor, a new simplified three-position gas regulator, and a cocking handle featuring a forward bolt assist. It is believed that approximately 4,000-5,000 Portuguese variants were produced; nearly all of them were sold to the Portuguese National Defense Ministry by the Brussels-based arms dealer SIDEM International in 1960. The AR-10 was officially adopted by the Portuguese paratrooper battalions ("Caçadores páraquedistas"), and the rifle saw considerable combat service in Portugal's counter-insurgency campaigns in Angola and Mozambique.
Document 7: ArmaLite AR-15: The ArmaLite AR - 15 was a select - fire, air - cooled, gas - operated, magazine - fed assault rifle manufactured in the United States between 1959 and 1964. Designed by American gun manufacturer ArmaLite in 1956, it was based on its AR - 10 rifle. The ArmaLite AR - 15 was designed to be a lightweight assault rifle and to fire a new high - velocity, lightweight, small - caliber cartridge to allow the infantrymen to carry more ammunition.
Document 8: Ak 5: The first versions of the Ak 5 family were made by the Swedish company FFV Ordnance AB (now part of Saab Bofors Dynamics) under license from FN, with deliveries starting in 1986. This version of the Ak 5 is still in the inventory of the Swedish Armed Forces, but is no longer issued to soldiers, having been replaced by the Ak 5C and Ak 5D. This version uses fixed iron sights, and the Swedish Armed Forces have estimated that the maximum practical distance is 400 meters, but it can be used at longer ranges. This brings it in line with the M16, using the Swedish Armed Forces definition of maximum practical distance.
