They may be mentioning about Ak-204, the carbine version of Ak203Caracal 816 Carbine variant.
Possible idea for a AK 203 series carbine.
And finally OFB's INSAS 1C carbine variant!

Any pictures available? 7.62x39 mm round for a carbine is a very stupid idea. Smaller barrel means worse terminal ballistics and more recoil. Round itself prevents sustained automatic fire for accuracy which is the template of carbines.They may be mentioning about Ak-204, the carbine version of Ak203

5.56x45 mm is ideal for carbines. Yawing of round at 100 - 125 yards allows for better performance against soft targets. M855/SS109 rounds good against LVL III and below body armor at 15 yards.
Meanwhile OFB's gun is pure nonsense.
Just check net. Ak104s had been around 2 decades. Russian Spetsnaz had been using Ak104 successfully. Recently they had improved Ak104 into 204.Any pictures available? 7.62x39 mm round for a carbine is a very stupid idea. Smaller barrel means worse terminal ballistics and more recoil. Round itself prevents sustained automatic fire for accuracy which is the template of carbines.

This is not ideal at all. AK 74u sized is OK. Else it's worthless.

Agree, Ak platforms are not meant for carbine purposes,the receiver itself thick and too big to conceal.This is not ideal at all. AK 74u sized is OK. Else it's worthless.
Stupidest idea ever! M27 aka HK416 for M249 SAW. Without suppressive fire how will squad maneuver?That is the planned setup by 2020s. Currently it is this -

Earlier on, it was like this:

In all cases, the Automatic Rifleman will be the one entrusted with providing support when rest of squad is moving. Earlier on, he used to provide support with the M249 SAW and its volume of fire. Now he does it with the M27 IAR and its precision of fire (6x scope provided as standard).
Same role, different tool.
In the near future, the entire squad will be equipped with a common weapon. In that sense, only the intended roles will differ based on which member of the squad is wielding it. But in effect, all guns will be capable of doing all roles. At least that's what the USMC is working toward.

However that is a shit way to handle rifle grenades. Volley fire is done using the grenade mount as a cross hair and not as a knee mortar. Also why aren't the troopers in a slit trench for safety.
Its been more than 20 years, still. soldkers are given 20 round mags for Insas. .rare 30 round magazines on INSAS
