recently completed segment of this
proceeding in which that manufacturer
or exporter participated; (3) if the
exporter is not a firm covered in this
review, a prior review, or the original
less-than-fair-value (LTFV)
investigation, but the manufacturer is,
then the cash deposit rate will be the
rate established for the most recently
completed segment of this proceeding
for the manufacturer of subject
merchandise; and (4) the cash deposit
rate for all other manufacturers or
exporters will continue to be 9.70
percent, the all-others rate in the LTFV
investigation.18 These cash deposit
requirements, when imposed, shall

Notifications
This notice also serves as a
preliminary reminder to importers of
their responsibility under 19 CFR
351.402(f)(2) to file a certificate
regarding the reimbursement of
antidumping duties prior to liquidation
of the relevant entries during this
review period. Failure to comply with
this requirement could result in the
Secretary’s presumption that
reimbursement of antidumping duties
occurred and the subsequent assessment
of double antidumping duties.
We are issuing and publishing these
results in accordance with sections
751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Act.
Dated: June 4, 2018.

Deputy Assistant Secretary for Antidumping
and Countervailing Duty Operations,

Department of the Army, DoD.
Notice of intent.
AGENCY:
ACTION:
The U.S. Army Aviation and
Missile Command (AMRDEC) is seeking
Cooperative Research and Development
Agreement (CRADA) partners to
collaborate in transitioning firearm with
both gas delayed and stroke piston
action into commercial and/or
government application(s). Interested
potential CRADA collaborators will
receive detailed information on the
current status of the project after signing
a confidentiality disclosure agreement
(CDA) with AMRDEC.
Under the CRADA, further research,
development and testing will be
conducted to further refine the
principles and prototypes. Based on the
results of these experiments a refined
fully functioning firearm action could
be designed and manufactured. The
developed principles and designs might
be further modified for other uses
outside of the firearms industry.
DATES: Interested candidate partners
must submit a statement of interest and
capability to the AMRDEC point of
contact before July 13, 2018 for
consideration.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Collaborators should have experience in
the development and testing of firearms.
The target end products include
government and commercial
applications and unique applications
identified by the CRADA partner.
The full CRADA proposal should
include a capability statement with a
detailed description of collaborators’
expertise in the following and related
technology areas: (1) Gas and/or
blowback operated automatic firearms;
(2) collaborators’ expertise in successful
technology transition; and (3)
collaborator’s ability to provide
adequate funding to support some
project studies is strongly encouraged. A
preference will be given to collaborators
who shall manufacture automatic or
semi-automatic firearms in the United
States. Collaborators are encouraged to
properly label any proprietary material
in their CRADA proposal as
PROPRIETARY. Do not use the phrase
‘‘company confidential.’’
Guidelines for the preparation of a
full CRADA proposal will be
communicated shortly thereafter to all
respondents with whom initial
confidential discussions will have
established sufficient mutual interest.
CRADA applications submitted after the
due date may be considered if a suitable
CRADA collaborator has not been
identified by AMRDEC among the initial
by AMRDEC are expeditiously
commercialized and brought to practical
use. The purpose of a CRADA is to find
partner(s) to facilitate the development
and commercialization of a technology
that is in an early phase of development.
Respondents interested in submitting a
CRADA proposal should be aware that
it may be necessary for them to secure
a patent license to the above-mentioned
patent pending technology in order to
be able to commercialize products
arising from a CRADA. CRADA partners
are afforded an option to negotiate an
exclusive license from the AMRDEC for
inventions arising from the performance
of the CRADA research plan.
Technology Overview. Most
conventional high powered automatic
firearms function using a variation of
long, short piston or direct impingement
gas operation. The locking/unlocking
mechanisms used in these firearms
require extensive machining and
manufacturing costs. A solution for
delaying case extraction without the use
of elaborate locking mechanisms or
heavy bolts would allow for a simpler
design.
By utilizing the principles of a gas
delayed system to retain the bolt until
safe extraction is possible and a stroke
piston action to facilitate case
extraction/ejection a simpler
mechanism may be used for a highpowered automatic firearm. Two
separate barrel ports, one near the
chamber for the gas delaying function
and the other near the muzzle for the
stroke piston action, allow propellant
gasses to act upon one piston. The
piston is directly connected to the
firearm’s bolt via a linkage. Upon firing,
the port near the chamber is utilized
first causing gasses to hold the piston
forward. Once propellant gasses reach
the port near the muzzle the piston is
forced rearward. The barrel port
diameters will determine the forces
acting upon the piston and bolt. Two
prototypes of advancing design, detailed
within the patent, were developed for
initial testing and showed promising
results.
