About
The AAA - SAR was a continuation of the Leader Dynamics T2 MK5 rifle after AAA purchased the rights and moved production to Tasmania. The most significant difference, from the T2 MK5 is the absence of the carrying handle.

Imported from 1986 to 1989, these were shipped with only a five round or 20 round magazine. Some of these rifles were imported with 508 mm (20 in) barrels. The MSRP in the late 1980's was $663.

A single prototype was made with an AR15 type bolt. The future plans were to change to this bolt type for all future models.

The select-fire version of this rifle is the AR.
