FA. MAC. 1956

The AuKb. Ws. 1955 (More commonly known as the Ws. 55 or FA. MAC.55) was Modrovia’s first assault rifle to see service and enjoyed a long service life.

Design and Development
The project began in 1945 and would be completed in 1952 by the MAC design team in Orlobem with evaluation beginning in 1952, the design was intended to replace the ageing FA. FeG 42/46 rifle which was merely a stop gap modification of the FA. FeG 1942. The rifle was designed to fire the 7.62x45mm cartridge of its predecessor, and was to retain select fire capability.

The rifle would later be modernised in 1975 with new polymer parts which cut the rifles overall weight as well as new stock padding which made it more comfortable to fire.

Service History
In Modrovian service the rifle replaced the stopgap FA. FeG 42/46 and was introduced in a manner not unlike submachine guns due to shifting Modrovian doctrine. The rifle would later go on to replace majority of submachine guns in army service which was not initially intended in original procurement plans.

In 1975 the Ws. 1955 was updated with new polymer furniture and a new stock pad. These minor changes were to further cut the rifles overall weight and make it more comfortable to fire. The rifle grenade launcher was retained and various other minor changes to the exterior and interior were made to make the rifle more convenient for general use and production.
