The Akria Armaments Model 46 Assualt Rifle or AA-46 is a family of small-arms currently in service with the Libriran People's Army of Workers and Peasants. The rifle was designed late in the 2nd Global War based on the developments of other countries towards a fully automatic rifle, chambered in an intermediate round, capable of the accuracy to fill the role of early bolt action and semi-auto rifles. The design marked a departure in other Libriran service rifles, in that is used a smaller, high velocity round. Earlier rifles used full sized 7.65x65r, a slower heavier bullet.
The Rifle was accepted in 1947 just as the 2nd global war was ending, and quickly became the standard small arm of all the branches. It has since been updated with synthetic furniture, stamped receiver components, optics, folding stocks and other upgrades. It continues to serve as the standard rifle of the Libriran armed forces and is expected to continue in that capacity until 2040.
