Cynics never win, unchecked doubts and fear creates cynic ..

Someone who criticize and does not analyze, someone who lets their doubts and fear close their mind instead of open their eyes.

Bottom line is, I would rather like to read and learn via sources which can be genuine than reading one-liner rant which can latter refer to X,Y,Z rumors or gossips,

JVPC is a dead project now.Anyone bet for it.This gov Make in India policy is nothing but hogwash.

@Kunal Biswas dada Thank you for taking away his rights to post here.

And you,Pandora,this post of yours verifies that you're a PIDI.

Any INDRA or Shatrujeet guy here can confirm that JVPC is in mass production and so.

Still you brought politics here in an inappropriate thread,in an inappropriate manner.

See there were enough bullets and magazines to rotate to keep the firing going for the required duration. So, I don't see where extra magazines could have helped.

A good number of extra pre-filled magazines, when not in use, will be using quite a lot of precious little space that is there in any satellite post.

Also, if the mags are kept loaded for a long time the spring with loose its elasticity.

@Kunal Biswas Dada,do you have some high quality pics of Early Variant of INSAS ?
i.e. This

If yes then please reupload them.I went to some of the very early posts and it seems those images you uploaded via Imageshack and photobucket have got removed from their servers.

Now the vital question: which rifle and carbine is under consideration for acquisition as approved by the MOD a few days back?

Is it the Israeli or Belgium or modified Russian or Indian made under consideration and for a layman's knowledge, why?

Or the Army will have a unending round of testing, testing and more testing.

MOD promised four years back that they will give soldiers a rifle of which they will be proud off. Is it happening now?

1C is being used by paramilitaries & police forces across the country so yeah it is a proven platform

I haven't seen insas 1c in operational use. If anyone could share some pics of Insas 1c operationally deployed, would be great

New assault rifle gears up for trials
The 7.62-mm automatic rifle with ‘98% consistency’ will replace the in-service INSAS rifle
The trials of an assault rifle being developed by the Ordnance Factory Board (OFB) have made progress after initial bottlenecks. The sixth round was completed in November by the Project Management Team (PMT) and the OFB is gearing up for consistency trials later this year.

“We are currently assembling 50 rifles from which some of them will be picked up randomly and checked for consistency. This is likely in the first week of May. After that the PMT would decide on the way forward,” a senior OFB official said.

The new 7.62-mm rifle is fully automatic and weighs 4.5 kg. The development of the gun began on October 1, 2016 and some inconsistencies were noticed during the basic trials.

“There was problem with consistency in the firing. The Army wanted 99% consistency and we have now achieved 98%,” he said.

One Army officer said the rifles were being made in small batches and so they “asked the OFB to make at least 50 rifles to check for consistency”.

Tough specifications

The Army has been trying to replace the in-service INSAS rifle with a modern one, but the tender was withdrawn due to overambitious service quality specifications of having interchangeable barrels capable of firing both 5.56-mm and 7.62-mm calibre bullets. The Army has subsequently decided to go for 7.62-mm calibre and issued fresh General Staff Quality Requirements (GSQR).

To meet the immediate requirement and the cost factor, the Army has decided to go for two different rifles — import a high-tech rifle in small numbers for the frontline infantry soldiers and procure the indigenous rifle in large numbers to meet the balance requirement.

“Procurement of assault rifles got delayed because of the to change in the GSQR. We are now going for procurement of an assault rifle with 500 metre range with night vision capability,” Army Chief Gen Bipin Rawat said on Friday.

He said the remaining requirement would be through indigenous solutions which would be split between the OFB and the private industry to create competition and get a better product. “The infantry soldier deployed in the front will get the high-tech assault rifle. We have identified the gun and trials are on. We will get it very soon preferably through the government to government route,” Gen. Rawat said.

The Project Management Team, which oversees the development comprises representatives from the Army’s Infantry Directorate, the Ishapore Rifle Factory, the Director-General, Quality Assurance, and the Defence Research and Development Organisation. The initial requirement for 1,85,000 rifles is likely to go up.

I hope this rifle will pass the trials in flying colors and induct massive numbers in Indian Army.
