The FERFRANS SOAR incorporates modifications and improvements to the M16A1, A2, M4 that will among other things, ensure enhanced reliability, accuracy, firepower, ergonomics / man machine interface, a reduced cyclic rate, parts longevity and increased service life. The objective of the SOAR, among others, is to increase effective firepower as a force multiplier. This was achieved with the proprietary rate reduction system/ independent sear disconnector that reduced the rate of automatic fire by 200 to 250 rounds per minute. The operator has full control of the weapon in full auto fire, increasing accuracy and firepower.
