How can we differentiate between arsenal Ar Fab mod and Romanian ak fab fab?
If 90Deg Gas block then Arsenal & if 45deg gas block with slant muzzle brake then Romanian because similar looking East German MPI KMS 72 doesn't fully support FAB MOD (Lower hand guard of MPI KMS can't be replaced with FAB).

Proud moment for PLR Systems... Just couldn't wait to share with you all ... It has been an year since the first and second consignments of "Made in India" X95s chambered in 5.56 and 9 mm were delivered to the Indian Forces. Flawless service rendered by these modern weapons.

SWAT Commandos are growing in strength with time. Undoubtedly there weapon handling drills are well coordinated and organized. Had a close look to see their shooting skills offlate. No wonder many of them were just too good. Weapons - courtesy

Assam rifles get 1st delivery of sniper rifles
Kolkata: In what came as a major boost to the Centre’s “Make in India” initiative in the defence sector, the Rifle Factory Ishapore (RFI), the oldest fire-arms manufacturer in the country located in North 24 Parganas of West Bengal, has delivered 100 pieces of 7.62x51-mm sniper rifles to the Assam Rifles (AR), known for its counter insurgency supremacy in the Northeast. The indegenously built sniper rifle’s inclusion is going to add teeth to the armoury of the AR which is under the operational control of the Indian Army’s Eastern Command. The weapon, weighing 6.7 kgs, can be mounted with any telescopic sight. It can hit the target upto 800 metres with an accuracy of 1 MOA which is at par with any international sniper. On Friday, RFI general manager D.K. Mahapatra handed over 100 numbers of 7.62x51-mm sniper rifles to Brigadier H.S. Sandhu, the AR 22 Sector Commander. Each sniper rifle cost around Rs 1.20 lakhs, according to sources. This is also the second and largest consignment so far for the 232-year-old RFI, the only manufacturer of sniper rifles in India, which launched the product in August, 2017.
