What (who) is M231 Firing Port Weapon - definition
M231 Firing Port Weapon
ASSAULT RIFLE
M231; Colt M231 FPW; M231 FPW; Firing Port Weapon
The M231 Firing Port Weapon (FPW) is an adapted version of the M16 assault rifle for shooting from firing ports on the M2 Bradley. The M16, standard infantry weapon of the time, was too long for use in a "buttoned up" APC, so the FPW was developed to provide a suitable weapon for this role.
