Type 46 assault rifle

The Type 46 assault rifle, is a select-fire assault rifle that was used by the Mirialan Commonwealth during the Unification War.
== Overview ==
The Type 46 assault rifle is an air-cooled, gas-operated, magazine-fed weapon chambered for the 8.25x41mm round. The Type 46 is a traditional design that, at a glance, strongly resembles the Russian AKM. The rifle's iron sights allow for effective shooting at medium range. Standard magazines have a capacity of 30 rounds.
== History ==
The Type 46 was originally designed by Commonwealth Army Sublieutenant Mihasu Korori. After being wounded in action against UIR forces during the Battle of Tanshu, and bearing witness to the Union forces' massacre of her wounded comrades that followed, she began work on designs for weapons that would bridge the gap between the Type 39 semi-automatic rifle and Type 40 submachine gun, recognizing the need for increased infantry-level firepower.
