Return Adress: Fiona Banphrionsa of the Tribe of Cavan, Cathéide House, Office 65-C, Traverse, Farpoint Island, Free Lands of the Selkie.Monday, 26th of Septembre, 2016.
Dear Sirs and Ma'ams,
the wish of the Free Army for a new standard rifle to replace the Vz. 78 reached the shores of Farpoint Island and of Gabha Blacksmiths Limited, the company I represent.
For your consideration, I wish to offer you the Carbine, Automatic, Model 2008 Mark II or CAM 2008-II for short, a 5.56mm NATO bullup rifle useable as an assault rifle, carbine and many other roles. All information needed can be found in the appendix below.
If wished, we can organize a demonstration with the help of the SDF-Army.
I eagerly await your reply.
With kind regards,
Fiona Banphrionsa of the Tribe of Cavan
Representing Gabha Blacksmiths Ltd.The Carbine, Automatic, Model 2008 Mark II (CAM 2008-II, in the following called CAM 2008) is the newest weapon of the SDF, currently being introduced after a long phase of testing. Suitable and useable in basically every environment, the CAM 2008 is the ideal weapon for all carbine-related needs.Technical Data
Weight: 3.3 kg
Length:991 mm with stock extended,
Barrel length: 500 mm
791 mm with stock folded
Width: 56 mm
Cartridge: 5.56×45mm
Action: Gas-operated, rotating bolt
Rate of fire: 750 rounds/min cyclic
Muzzle velocity: 962 m/s
Feed system: 30-round detachable box magazine
Sights:Iron sights, Picatinny rail for
mounting aiming optics on receiver
Design
The CAM 2008 is a short-stroke gas-operated automatic weapon with a rotating bolt, ensuring both light weight and safety while operating, as well as precision when firing. Said precision can be enhanced by sights to be mounted instead of the simple iron sights. As such, the CAM 2008 can be used in many different roles then just as an assault rifle. Being capable of being fired in full auto, semi automatic and in three round burst, all by the switch of a thumb on the selectors on either side of the pistol grip, certainly helps, too.
One of the most remarkable features is the polygonal rifling used on the barrel, which makes the barrel thicker and more resistant to the stress of firing a bullet, allows for more of the combustion gases to stay behind the bullet and propel it forward as it travels forward, making the bullet go faster, reduces the buildup of bullet remains inside the barrel and therefore easier to maintain, or it makes the barrel, in short, better.
The CAM 2008 has an underslung rail beneath the barrel for mounting additional equipment like underslung grenade launchers.
Materials used include, but are not limited to, a carbon-fibre reinforced polymer for the receiver group (coming in black, dark green or any camouflage pattern wished by the customer) and a barrel of cold forged stainless steel, as is much of the internal mechanisms.
Export
In 2015, Gabha Blacksmiths began to offer the CAM 2008 for export, offering 100 rifles as package deals for 470,000 NSD per package.

RE: Price disclosure
One final question from the Free Army Procurement Division office, we would ask that you kindly disclose to us the effective firing range of your rifle, and if possible confirm that these estimated schematics of the rifle meet the actual design of the rifle in question. If you wish, your team may update the submission with this schematic.

We hope for a swift response, and remember that the due date for updating your submission is the 1st of October, 2016.
Regards,

Dear Sirs and Ma'ams,
the effective firing range of the CAM-2008-II in the hands of a trained and experiences soldiers in a combat situation is between 450 and 550 meters with lightweight day sights, one of the possible sights capable of being attached to the CAM-2008-II. That range can be extended to around 1,000 meters.
As for the schematics, I can confirm to you, that these are not the schematics of the CAM-2008-II.

I'd like to feature all of the designs considered so that I can make a comparison table or something. I'd be providing credit where it's due, of course. If that's ok with you.

A message from Gordan Ramses, Police Commisioner of Paradise-City
I have seen the results that the TAC56 put out and Im happy to see it go. A small fee of 300$ a gun will be expected and I thank you for cleaning out my armory. Hopefully it will be restocked with Falling Star arms and pristine foreign arms. I look forward to working close with your government in any future affairs that might surface.

Hello all who have participated in our 5.56mm Challenge, we have finally finished testing, have retired the Vz. 78, and have also produced our plans for ordering rifles.
Firstly, all design's performances and dossiers can be reviewed by your companies and governments at this page (graciously hosted by AccuTech Precision) here: (link shortend for convenience)
http://bit.ly/2e3UwE6
Secondly, we would like to congratulate AFB Justfield for hosting our competition, and to all of you who have developed and submitted functional 5.56mm rifle designs.
We won't go into specifics on each rifle here, but be happy in knowing that all your design's performances have exceeded the Vz. 78.
Now, onto our plan for ordering rifles.
We have decided to utilise five designs submitted for this competition, they all possess attributes they excel at, and we have decided to work our order around these advantages.
We will achieve this by buying a suitable amount of rifles for each role we think they work best in.The winner of the competition and the one chosen for standard issue and to be designated SSRa1 is the Crookfur Arms E7-5N.
We would like to order 45,000 rifles to be issued to all branches of the armed forces.
Next, we would like to order 150 AR Scorpion rifles to be issued to our newly formed Special Ops task force.

Finally, we would like to import all Rustuchio-Pappuchio TAC56 rifles without attachments to be issued to the Army Reserves.
Thank you, and we hope to hear back from every supplier as soon as possible. May we build a strong business relation with each supplier over these new contracts.

Dear Sirs and Ma'ams,
it is with greatest pleasure, that I confirm the ordering of 4,000 CAM-2008s chambered for the 7.62 mm NATO. We are currently working on an appropriate rifle, the Mark III, so there should be little to no delay in the production.
With your permission, we would like to change the order accordingly, while the price would stay the same.
It was a pleasure to do business with you and we hope for a continuation.
With kind regards,
