Another AK Clone

[Water Car Engineer]

It's named Trichy Assault Rifle, I know there was another with the same name, but that was a SLR conversion. This an AK.

You can see an adjustable, and foldable stock. Also, all of them have hand grip similar to Amogh, MCIWS, JVPC.

Other than that subtle design language, pretty much an AK I would think. It makes sense for two factories to pump these out considering the requirement of the police forces alone, no?

The TAR looks like a Bulgarian AR M1 clone. You can differentiate between the new TAR and Ghatak
1)Milled receiver (seems logical to go this way since OFT has the milling equipment) on the TAR instead of stamped steel receiver based on the INSAS of the Ghatak.
2)90* gas block of the AR M1 on the TAR instead of AKM gas block on the Ghatak.
3)AK-47/AR-M1 style buttstock along with bulgarian side-folder and telescopic buttstock on the TAR instead of the AKM (MPi KM to be specific) style buttstock of the Ghatak.

So now we have two competing AK variants from two factories of the OFB, RFI and OFT respectively.
