Where's the BFA?Dear Half-Mast, I Found very helpful your layout in PS 615 on what can be mounted on the different rifles, carbines, and machine guns. Could you do something similar on what blank firing attachments (BFA BFA abbr. Bachelor of Fine Arts BFA abbr BFA, B.F.A Bachelor of Fine Arts; first degree in Fine Arts. ) to use for each weapon and why it's important to use the correct one? Richard Scott Richard Scott may refer to:
Safety Specialist Ft Carson, CO Dear Mr. Scott, You bet. It's important to use the correct BFA because the weapon will function better with the BFA designed specifically for it. You can use the M16 rifle BFA on the M4 carbine or M249 machine gun and it won't damage the weapon, but you're more likely to have firing problems. Here are the BFA NSNs for each weapon: * M16-series rifle, NSN NSN National Stock Number NSN Nokia Siemens Networks NSN National Storytelling Network NSN NATO Stock Number NSN New Substances Notification (CEPA) NSN National Student Number (NZ) NSN Never Say Never 1005-00-118-6192 * M4/M4A1 carbine carbine Light, short-barreled rifle. The first carbines, from the muzzle-loading muskets of the 18th century to the lever-action repeaters of the 19th, were chiefly cavalry weapons or saddle firearms for mounted frontiersmen. , NSN 1005-01-361-8208 (The best way to tell the difference between the M16 and M4 BFA's is to remember the M16's is red and the M4's is yellow. The M4's has a slightly larger hole for bleeding gas.) * M249 machine gun, NSN 1005-21-912-8997 * M240 machine gun "M240" redirects here. For the Israeli Jeep derivative, see AIL Storm. The M240, formally United States Machine Gun, 7.62mm, M240, is a family of belt-fed medium machine guns firing the 7.62 × 51 mm NATO cartridge (w/ M13 Link). : M240B, NSN 1005-01-480-0289 M240 and M240C, N5N 1005-01-148-7437 * M60/M60D machine gun, NSN 1005-00-140-3515 * M2 machine gun, NSN 1005-01-091-7510 The MK 19 machine gun has no BFA.
