Egyptian Armed Forces

[agentny17]

Nice, one questions; How did these civilians manage to get their hands on this MADI? Does the Egyptian army sell MADI's to civilians?

I would like to know the answer for that too, especially those civilians are not Egyptians. Also, the shooting in the videos doesn't look to be taking place in Egypt.

 

[NeutralCitizen]

Just my Opinion But I believe the AK is outdated for a modern military use a cold war relic.

 

[DESERT FIGHTER]

AK with NVGs,a drum mag,a telescope with carbon fiber furniture and a grenade launcher is as good as any rifle out there.

 

[NeutralCitizen]

Actually if Egypt needs a Gun change then M416 or the G36K just my two cent.

he couldnt keep our army from getting what they need our armed forces is strong and profssional and no presdient can use them to act agnist our homeland securety plus they help fund themselfs with the militry projects
about our tank the minster of militry industry have told us about this tank but there is no information about what will it look like but alot of people who understand what is going on has told me that we have studed the abrams design well
and we have a project for egyptian fighter also but still dont know when will it come out
this is not the 60 s fighter it was canceled

The tank in question is an Egyptian variant of the Abraham tank already produced in large numbers, and the next fighter plane could be an Egyptian variant of the J-17 fighter aircraft produced under licence in a joint venture with Pakistan .

not in egypt we sell it to military and civilians

So your Army sells them to civilians and militaries of foreign countries?

If so, who is the manufacturer of the MADI and how can one contact them if one wants to purchase the gun?

we sold to iraq and a number of countrys but it is agnist the law in egypt to have a gun

I never knew it was against the law in Egypt to possess a gun. Funny because you'd think that considering Egypt's location (ME) people would have the right to possess guns, legally of course.

Which is why i'm wondering if the Egyptian military sells these to civilians in foreign countries, or is there a separate manufacturer that produces for Egyptian army as well as sells to civilians abroad.

EGYPTIAN FAHD IFV

The Fahd is a 4x4 Egyptian armored personnel carrier, designed to fit the requirements of the Egyptian Military. It replaced older APCs in Egyptian service such as the BTR-40, and the Walid (armored personnel carrier) (called Waleed in Egypt). It has been used by eight nations including Egypt, besides being used by the United Nations.

The flexible design of the vehicle, its high speed, maneuverability and long range, on road and off road, makes it possible to produce various versions to satisfy various military and security purposes. Variants include the Fahd 240/280 APC, Fahd 280-30 IFV, a command post vehicle, ambulance vehicle, light armored recovery vehicle, and can be used for anti-riot purposes, mine laying and mine dispensing purposes, making it possible to form independent units capable of dealing with different threats of armor, low-flying targets, and personnel, with common repair duties, and operation. The Fahd consists of a Mercedes-Benz LAP 1117/32 truck (4 × 4 chassis fitted with an armored body. It has a usual APC configuration of placing the driver and the commander on the front, and a large box-like shape, similar to the German Fuchs

Maddi is a good AK varient. The orginals (pre-ban in 1982) were imported by Styer-Daimler-Puch of New Jersey and had the full auto bolt carriers in them. The ATF quickly stopped that, but an estimated 1500 made it in. They were later imported with semi auto carriers both by Steyr and later by another importer who didn't use the same high standards. They are stamped receivers and it is said, they are as close to a Russian AKM as you can get. They are made in Cairo on actual Russian equipment. The correct finish should be black enamel with reddish laminated furniture & either a black or red plastic grip.

The Pre-Ban variation comes complete with a pistol grip stock, bayonet, muzzle break, cleaning kit, sling, and a 30rnd mag.
The Post-Ban variant comes with a Dragunov style stock, cleaning kit, sling and 5rd mag.
Many people agree that the Maddi AK-47s have alot higher resale than the MAK90 and are more desireable.
Many consider it to be one of the most reliable AK's available today making it the perfect weapon for rugged country

Most of the AKMs seen in Hollywood movies are actually Egyptian Maadi MISR copies, which were sold in the U.S. as the ARM in the 1980s - such weapons were first procured by Stembridge Gun Rentals for Red Dawn and subsequently re-used in numerous other motion pictures. The Maadi is almost identical to the original Soviet-built AKM, save for the markings, and is nearly impossible to tell apart.
