This one look like a very practical assault rifle, Seems to be quiet sturdy. Other specifications are out?

Nice but what about the specifications guys, and unit cost too which will decide whether it is actually better or not.

I hope that this doesn't take eternity to get inducted in favour of some firangi assault rifle. I like the hybrid look of it though.. a mix of M4 and AK-47. Nice going. Finally an assault rifle that can be comparable to the world's quality ones!

pics from other forum posted by justanobserver
The one on the left is the Trichy Assault Rifle.

The grip [1] and butt [1] (folding stock of INSAS) are taken from the INSAS. The fore-grip looks somewhat like that of the Excalibur [2], Dragunov [3] or FN-FAL [4]. The side mounted scope holder with Picatinny rail is on the right, unlike Dragunov [5], where it is on the left. The magazine is that of the Kalashnikov [6] family.

Compare the numbers above with the numbered pictures below:

[1]


[2]


[3]


[4]


[5]


[6]


P.S.: Sorry guys. It was confusing to get it correctly ordered. Sorry if anyone of you were trying to quote me. Now I think everything is error free.

Your Idea is right but over all looks are similar to SIG-551/556

Yes, you are right, except the magazine. There are a whole range of whacky fore-grips and folding stocks that are commercially available (for civilian guns) than can be changed anytime. The same applies here. I think the SIG-551/556 here has a shorter 20 round magazine, but I am not sure.

'खड्ग ' or Vajra :)


Sorry to interrupt but thats not vajra, its Khanda which was produced during the Gupta Dynasty and used by its army. It is a very prestigious and as respectable as the sword of samurai warriors.
