The Sieg automatic rifle was a bullpup automatic rifle designed by Chief Gunner's Mate James E. Sieg of the US Coast Guard. The weapon was chambered in the .30-06 round, fed from 20 round magazines and capable of firing around 650–700 RPM on full automatic.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Little Known American Bullpup- The Sieg Rifle )〕 A two-finger double trigger selected between semi- and full-automatic fire. The barrel came with a unique muzzle compensator that could be turned off for use with a flash hider or grenade launcher without interfering when also installing a bayonet. Recoil gently threw the barrel of the Sieg rifle downward, not upward. When tested at Fort Benning, it had effective results. The compensator was extremely effective; it also enabled the user to fire the rifle with one hand.〔 reproducing an article from ''American Rifleman'', April 1946 issue〕 Sieg obtained a patent for his compensator in 1948, as USPTO 2451514.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Patent US2451514 - Compensator for guns )〕 ==See also== *Model 45A *List of bullpup firearms *List of battle rifles 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Sieg automatic rifle」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
