Yes wonder what SSSD keeps in their minds, they are working on battle rifles after Army purchased off the shelf, they started working on LMG after Indian Army ordered Negev NG-7, they presented P-72 when Indian Army already selected AK-203 and now they are still thinking which operating system on the AR-15 so that they can start work on that firearm after Indian army starts receiving carbines. Disgusting.

SSS defence also has a AK based rifle, apart from P-72 and newly revealed AR based one.

Not all. There are thousands with just a pic rail and holos on those. FAB mods arent as popular as these minimalistic ones. FABs are coming in numbers only now.
I know but is a pain, more painful was when I saw, an AK-47 with BEL PNVS with a Trijicon RMR Reflex on Top, it was a real pain seeing the image.

Gas operated rotating bolt obviously, but they should do it on time else they’ll lose carbine deal.
If you are on twitter ask them to copy Sig mcx or SCAR , HK 433 etc.

They can simply bring some artificial changes from outside and provide it to army.

In the beginning they can import few parts and later make them inhouse.

Even if not this tender they can always capture order from mha.

What ? Absolutely not all 3 provide better recoil management and comes from trusted manufacturing houses.

Scar is the pick of special forces all over the world. It does need mod though.

Similarly HK 433 is a trusted weapon from H&K .

And Sig MCX has chances of winning tender in India.

They will most probably make a ar15 with 16 or 14.5 inch barrel and army would say RFI is violated.they haven't even planned the operating system on the gun when will they then make it?

They will only assemble for current carbine contract nothing more. But even if they do something they can always get orders later from mha.
