==Development & Service History==
==Design Details==
The MA5D effectively combines the best of all three other MA5 variants: the versatility of the MA5, the raw stopping power of the MA5B, and the accuracy and controllability of the MA5C. It sports a longer barrel than both the MA5 and MA5B, with a one-in-nine barrel twist. The end of the barrel is threaded to allow for attachment of suppressors and muzzle brakes, with a flash suppressor equipped on the stock version of the weapon. The MA5D possesses a rate of fire of roughly 600 rounds per minute, higher than the MA5, but less than the MA5B and MA5C, but with a greater muzzle velocity and thus greater muzzle energy than all other MA5 variants. It is slightly more accurate than the MA5C, with an approximate accuracy of 2.3 minute of arc, making it capable of, under controlled conditions, shooting roughly two and a quarter inch groups at 100 yards.
