FN CAL
The FN CAL (Carabine Automatic Légère) was a commercially unsuccessful 5.56mm rifle that paved the way for the FNC. It resembled the FAL visually, although it is a new design. The weapon uses a rotating bolt and could fire in 3 round bursts, with the 3-position ratchet resetting after the trigger is released, instead of when the burst is completed like on an M16A2. This means any incomplete burst (achieved by letting off the trigger before the third round has fired) will not be followed by just 1 or 2 rounds. While the magazines look like STANAG magazines, they are actually a proprietary design.

Swedish FNC Variants
Ak 5
The Ak 5 (automatkarbin 5 - literal translation "automatic carbine 5") is the Swedish version of the FNC. The FNC was originally adopted and modified to replace the Ak 4, which was already in use by the Swedish Armed Forces. A DMR-version, fitted with a SUSAT 4X rifle scope and a raised stock comb piece, called the Ak 5B was introduced during the early 1990s.
Differences between the Ak 5 and the FNC include the handguard, which is wider at the bottom than on the original FN FNC, the larger charging handle, and the removed bolt hold open feature.
The Ak 5 was replaced by the upgraded Ak 5C in 2006.

Ak 5C
The original Ak 5 was replaced by the upgraded Ak 5C in 2006, which featured shortened barrel, a retractable folding stock, ambidextrous safety, bolt hold open device, a Picatinny rail with an Aimpoint CS (swe. Rödpunktsikte eldhandvapen) red dot sight, a new hand guard with integrated rail pieces and a detachable vertical grip. Also a new type of magazine (translucent polymer) was implemented to minimize weight and to work with the bolt hold open device. All Ak 5C are converted Ak 5 carbines.

Ak 5D
The Ak 5D is a shorter version of the regular Ak 5 and is even shorter than the Ak 5C. It is in very limited use with the Swedish Armed Forces. The Ak 5D uses the same receiver though with a much shorter barrel. The prototypes also features an uncharacteristic carrying handle.

CGA5P
The CGA5P (short for Carl Gustav Automatkarbin 5 Polis) is a shortened version of the regular Ak 5 and predates both the Ak 5C and Ak 5D. The CGA5P was developed for the Swedish Police as a replacement for their aging HK53 carbines but has later been replaced by the G36C. It was also the primary weapon for the now defunct Swedish Auxiliary Police (Beredskapspolisen). The CGA5P can be distinguished from the Ak 5D in that it has a black finish rather than the green lacquer military finish. The prototypes also features an uncharacteristic carrying handle.
