Philippine Navy
Night Fighting Weapon

The Philippine Navy has taken delivery of the
first 10 units of the Philippine designed and manufactured Night Fighting
Weapon.  Its a sign of the increasing sophistication of Philippine Marine
armorers.  The weapon is basically a modified Elisco Tool M-16A1 fitted
with a rail mount and a new floating barrel with an integrated sound suppressor. 
The barrel itself is a bull barrel (1 inch in diameter) with a 1-9" twist. 
The current delivery will be split between the marines and the SWAG.

The scope is a US built Generation 3 D740 scope. 
It also comes with a daylight filter and is powered by two AA batteries.

The pictures below show the weapons being zeroed
prior to delivery.
