AC = Automatic Carbine © Australian Automatic Arms

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

The gun was offered with either a 20 or 30 round magazine.
