The magazine on the one gul is holding is a 20 round one. There is a 50 round optional drum magazine for it though. MKE could produce that. It is a great rifle and a understandable replacement to the aging G-3. I hope everything goes well and it is put in service.

This rifle is a HK-417. Putting modifications on it like a foregrip and different rail system doesn't make it something else.MKE picked it because of the short-stroke piston that doesn't feed propllent gas into the reciever which in turn increases durability and reliability. It is not a AR-15...

It is needed to launch Harpoons and SM-1s. ESSM is not a upgrade to the SM-1 but a upgrade to the RIM-7(what is on the Meko Track I) both lines are set up to intercept different threats. SM-1 out ranges the ESSM still so i would see that as the offensive weapon still but the ESSM now gives the...

So people will celebrate the death of human babies ? These types of people have long lost their Humility.

Those polymer magazines are replacing the metal ones. Also if anyone is wondering the Sniper Rifle on the table is the JNG-90. It is in production and has been exported to Azerbaijan (Not sure on the exact numbers though)

Look every time i turn on the news and they get a rebel on the phone line its (Help us NATO Help us NATO). Hence the no fly zone and air support. You can have countries do this or you can set back and watch Gaddafi kill off people that do not support him. This is what it comes down to in the...

I mentioned some of the changes i noticed. I have not heard of any internal changes being made the HK-416/17 are quite reliable.

I doubt any rational military would field something like that but it certainly looks cool. I would like to see how that forward ejection system works on full auto or with bad weather or even sloped firing positions. The recoil also seems a little too unmanageable. Like i said MKE looks to be...

I don't think a mass induction of bullpup designs would work for our needs. Especially at a 7.62 compact design with the type of trigger design they run would be hard to make effective. Bullpups as you know have their drawbacks as well. I think it would be better for a conventional design.

I don't see 5.56 as viable in the environments we operate against the PKK in. Such as these Hence G-3s and MG-3s.

Possibly for the reason of switching to a smaller caliber. Both the 417 and G-3 use 7.62x51mm NATO. 416 could possibly be inducted on a special forces level(M-4s are used by army special operations HK33 is also used on a counter terrorism level mainly within the Jandarma). Again though where...

MKE was visited by Gul. Where he was told about the rifle dubbed Mehmetcik-2. Difference seem to be the production of the rifle. Which looks to use metal injection molding to save costs rather then forging. A different metal alloy may be used for this process as well on different parts of the...

Its ok her warrior christian support group that swarms her twitter will help out.

The point i wanted to make is it is being blown out of proportion as she is just a college student representing herself making a video. Not a television representative. You wouldn't think comedian doing racist bits is racist on the count you don't take them serious or hold him accountable. Why...

I think she was just ranting not to be taken seriously enough that a university of 40,000 had to release a statement on it. The imitation of the language was certainly uncalled for. The others seem like observations. I make them from time to time too just other things i notice of different...

“A no-fly zone requires certain actions taken to protect the planes and the pilots, including bombing targets like the Libyan defense systems.… Qaddafi must go. [He is] a ruthless dictator that has no conscience and will destroy anyone or anything in his way. If Qaddafi does not go...

I posted this in the members club. It should be noted the author is Turkish. There are few people still producing articles like this in Turkey. Mainly because they are being arrested on false charges and thrown in jail while slow proceedings take place. Its good that he points out the double...

I don't think she was being racist. However she was certainly generalizing and could be culture clashing as well. It has been blown out of proportion though. No one should take her seriously. Just some college student ranting.
