I personally feel the Arsenal AR-M5F41 used by the CAPFs was a better choice for us. The only major issue was displeasing the Russians. We already have the tooling to make machined AKs “inspired” by Arsenal, aka the Trichy Assault Rifle (TAR).

Already discussed a million times.Common sense is not that common plus kickbacks will be minimal compared to selecting Ak203.
Btw if i had an opportunity to select an AK i would have bought the ToT or blueprints from Sako to make Rk95s skeltons and upgrade it with Valman furniture .
RK95s were made in wrong country at wrong time.

A collector will easily pay around $2500 at a minimum for this. Will it be possible for you get some history on the rifle? The armory should have some records.
Nope.these are distributed from state armouries which gets after army decommissions it.Heard that army after decommissioning many .303s uses the wooden parts in army kitchens and metal parts are molted.Dont know whethwr its true or not

That's a shame. Definitely would have paid for it if I was a collector.

Our police forces could have made millions of bucks by selling these priced items in collectors market.There are .303s ,410 muskets,7.62 Ishapore rifles and even ultra rare P-14s lying there awaiting demise.
Why don't you write up a proposal for that send that up the ladder?

Why are we even buying weapons from Germany? We should have given them the middle finger and copy their designs without paying royalty as a fuck you message to Germany.
Lol.We have much more things to import from germany not to mention the number of students migrating to germany every year.So if we copy their designs they will kick our asses more furiously.

It looks functionally good but only if they chose a adjustable buttstock as well, a much needed necessity when using body armours.

Russians seems to be using this for their new production rifles, guess they found it better than M4 style buttstock.View attachment 250112
This stock is quality wise trash. You could smash it with one good hit.

Yeaaa boy lets put a pic rail on the most wobbly part of the AK's handguard where you can't even reliably mount a LAM, let alone an optic. All that real estate on the dust cover we'll ignore because "lol we can't be bothered". We have a good pistol grip on the MAG but here's a shitty one for the AK. "Also we'll quote a higher price (before tax) than a Colt AR-15 made in America". It's 2024 and we still haven't figured out or bothered to make monolithic uppers for the AKM.
