The ARMALITE AR-10 is a select-fire, 7.62 NATO caliber machine gun designed by Eugene Stoner, featuring a gas-operated system with a 20.8-inch barrel and a rotating bolt that locks into the barrel extension. This firearm includes a 20-round detachable magazine and an aluminum upper and lower receiver that hinges for easier maintenance and durability. One of its standout features is a non-detachable carry handle that protects the top receiver charging lever. Weighing approximately 7 1/2 pounds, the AR-10 is both robust and relatively lightweight for its class. Initially, around 50 units were manufactured by ArmaLite in California in 1957, known as the “Hollywood Model,” and approximately 9,900 units were produced for military contracts between 1957 and 1960 under a licensing agreement with Artillerie Inrichtingen in Holland. The AR-10 represents significant mid-20th-century firearm innovation, showcasing advanced materials and engineering for reliable military use.
