    Few past facts about PA tank purchases

    This one is Pakistani? And this one? Some say they ended like this M47, but Pakistani M48 has 5 rollers abouve the wheels, not 3, so I have only see photos of M47 AVLB version. The M48A5 are not on any Army scrapyard, so they must be in ready reserve. thanks

    Pakistan's Service Rifle (G-3, Type-56) Replacement Competition 2016.

    OK, my vote is for CZ too. Here in Portugal we will replace the G3 too, my choice is HK416/417, my second choice is CZ. CZ is the best for Pakistan, Operational Way, Political Way and Long Term Way. Portugal & South Africa vote CZ!!! Thanks
