So basically the soldier issued with traditional design will keep the traditional design and one issued with bullpup will keep the bullpup.No use of its ability to switch design in service.1 It's cheaper, the logistics chan is simpler and so on. So for example our military won't introduce two or more assault rifle types, but a single one, because there is at least minimum 80% commonality inbetween all variants.
2 It all depends on military, Polish Army considers using classical variants for infantry and special forces, while bullpup is considered more as a PDW for rear eschelon forces, armored fighting vehicles crews, for pilots, and of course for special forces for CQB.
3 Not known yet, however as far as we know, MSBS reliability is not worse than AK rifle.
4 Dunno but it seems to be very accurate and recoil is low.
5 Charging handle is in the upper part of upper receiver, it is non reciprocating charging handle type.
You can see charging handles of both classic and bullpup variant, actually upper receiver on both variants is exactly the same.
6 Yes, there are different variants of barrel designed, some are lighter some heavier, gas ejection can be regulated.
7 Like any modern assault rifle.
8 Sorry, I don't have exact data, but people involved in to project and testing says it's not worse than any other modern assault rifle.
9 Dunno but not much, MSBS is fully modular and disassmebling it for cleaning is very easy, for example taking off buttstock in classic variant is a matter of seconds.
10 Probably the same, AFAIK you can use any kind of muzzle device on it.
11 Yes, it is planned to have different callibers, just priority got the 5,56x45mm variant, there is planned 7,62x51mm variant, we also know about 12 gauge shotgun variant, other variants are also possible.
Here is 12 gauge shotgun variant of the MSBS, as you can see it's preatty much the same basic design as assault rifle, of course some changes in design are nececary.
12 Hard to say, there is a lot of secrecy about some aspects of the project.
What more I can say? I actually had opportunity to hold MSBS and several other assault rifle designs, and I must proudly say that MSBS in terms of ergonomics beat any competition hands down.
Have you ever handled tar 21 and m4 ,i think they will offer better ergnomics than this.
It is also not multicalibre,as of now.And if they introduce a different version with 7.62 then also it would not be considered as one.It should be able to fire different calibre from the same rifle with minor adjustment ,just as arx and mciws.
I was asking for the standard issued barrel,will it be heavy.
Is there a carbine version of it.
And you were claiming it to be superior to other assault rifle, but sorry to say i do not see any thing which makes it better,it is similar or probably inferior to arx,scar,cz bren 805 and ak 12,plus a lot more .I was expecting a lot from it since you built such a hype around it.But now you say in most of the parameter not worse than any modern assault rifle,i am disappointed.Desert tech rifle offer more than this
