It might partly be over-penetration concerns.. What's the average building constructed of in India, thickness and density of the materials etc etc?.
4.5" brick inner/paritician walls mostly with plaster and 10" outer walls now I am not good with ballastics so you tell me is .300 blackout at risk of over-penetration issues?

HK will happily transfer TOT IP in India. Pakistan and Turkey as examples. Far superior to the screwdriver giri adani et. Al are doing

Is he wrong with his arguments though?

From what I've read, HK416 had it's issues which were fixed but led to increase in weight.
And JSOC is already replacing em!

The time for HK416 is past. If we want the best available AR platform for our SFs, in today's world both the ARAD and the SIG MCX are far superior solutions.
MCX is ofc the best option but we will have to do with Arads

My vote is for SR-15 , it is just as good if not better than 416
just setup a jv to to modify it as per our specs and keep pumping them out in different barrel length to arm everyone
You are talking too much sense for the Indian military.
