    New Assault Rifles for Indian Army

    Well our SFs already uses m4a1/Ace32. So it would not be a surprise if they adopt car816 and ak203, both are excellent weapons. Also Sig 716 can be an excellent weapon against foes with body armors

    New Assault Rifles for Indian Army

    Actually were getting Ak103m which was renamed as ak203. But ak203 and Ak12 are different rifles and should not be confused with each other

    New Assault Rifles for Indian Army

    What do you think how much an Insas costs....... It costs anywhere b/w 35-40k rupees. That's equal to what US army pays for their m4a1. And when it comes to comparing these two weapons I don't need to tell you which one is better. It's not about the foreign maal but it's about the quality. Our...

    New Assault Rifles for Indian Army

    Really if you think furniture, buttstock, and p-rail are not important then buddy you're living in 20th century. And bdw a good rail helps in mounting a ubgl better. And ak15 should not be called a modified Ak103 but a modernise and advanced version of Ak103

    New Assault Rifles for Indian Army

    You're absolutely right. Just take in mind the fact that just couple of months ago MOD said that the infantry will be armed with around 7.5 lakhs assault Rifles with the budget of around $1.9 billion. Sig has quoted a rifle for $990 per piece for the tender for 72400 odd rifles. Giving by this...

    New Assault Rifles for Indian Army

    Ak103 is a good rifle but it's not a new rifle it was designed in early 1990s. Russia army is adopting the newer Ak12 and AK15 so why are we going to make a rifle our general issue weapon which is of older generation and was inducted in 1990s. This is not a military decision it is more likely...

    1) How to ensure quality control in private firms........ Because ofb which is owned by govt. the people running it doesn't care much about its profit and loss as they are salaried people and gets retired at 60. And they don't get orders because they produce quality products and defeat their...

    New Assault Rifles for Indian Army

    And the reason why ATAGS is a success because two really good private companies are a part of its development. They make sure they maintain top most level of quality control. OFB lacks in quality control, innovation and the most of it intent and motivation. Just check out the quality of weapons...

    New Assault Rifles for Indian Army

    I totally agree..... Our forces are asking for new and better rifles for more than a decade now. MCIWS design is not that refined and it will take some time and constant upgradation to get it perfect. You don't want to repeat the same mistake of Insas again. Because whatever we're going to...

    New Assault Rifles for Indian Army

    $990 for a rifle chambered in 7.62 nato is not very costly. Also when it comes to Caracals Car 816, it's very similar to Hk416 specially since the designer and quality is the same. They quoted it for $1150 much less than what H&K quoted US army for a version of it which was around...

    God save us from ofb products. They are only good for paramilitary and police personnel not for modern military use. Private sector is the only way ahead

    New Assault Rifles for Indian Army

    We have the budget. Going by the quotation by Sig for 716 we can actually arm our entire army in a mere $750million ie 7.4 lakhs rifles. Ak15 are not going to cost more than $500 if we decide to produce 6.5 lakhs of them in India

    New Assault Rifles for Indian Army

    But don't forget we're going for 6.5 lakhs of these rifles. And every single and small improvements matters in the long run. These rifles will be with us for the next 2-3 decades so why not go for the latest version of the rifle.

    New Assault Rifles for Indian Army

    It's an Ak Alfa made by Kalasnikov Israel owned by CAA. I've 1st seen it almost a year ago in youtube. There are couple of videos available of it. It is the best looking Ak available in the market. It makes the design of Ak12/15 look like 20 years old. Made with entirely new furniture. Infact if...
