The BOFORS CBJ-MS is a personal defense weapon manufactured by AB BOFORS for the Baltic Union Armed Forces.
Features[]
The CBJ MS is a blowback operating weapon that fires from an open bolt. This is the very best for full auto to avoid overheating. However if the customer prefers a replacement bolt group can be installed within seconds and the gun will fire from a closed action by the help of a floating pin.
The bolt with its deeply recessed bolt face, surrounds the cartridge case effectively during extraction.
The bolt handle has an effective design and place. It is the button at the rear end of the receiver. It is easily pulled down and back with a finger. It is easily operated with left or right hand fingers even with gloves.
On this picture a sound suppressor has been attached, and an extra magazine has been inserted into the front grip for rapid reload
The same gun can be used in both 6.5x25 CBJ and 9 mm Parabellum. The gun has rather slow rate of full auto which makes it very easy to control. It is a rugged, simple design and very reliable.
The grip safety runs all along the front strap of the pistol grip. It works directly on the sear that blocks the bolt in either cocked or forward position.
The manual operated safety blocks the grip safety in its forward (safe) position when it is pushed to the safe position.
The safety-grip and mag-release, both located on the pistol grip are fully ambidextrous.
Switching between full- and semi automatic fire is controlled by the two step trigger. The first step gives semi automatic fire, and second step full auto.
The weapon is manufactured according modern production methods like metal stamping, investment casting, cold rolling of steel profiles etc.
On top of the receiver a Picatinny rail is fitted for optical sight and other equipment.
All parts are made of acid proof steel which is even better than stainless steel. This makes the weapon very resistant to corrosion, also when chemical agents are used for decontamination.
The new weapon system CBJ MS is designed in accordance with the most modern high-tech production methods.
