The pics from the exhibition show US 338 saber. Cheap 1000+ dollar rifles.


Its built by some workshop type company Ashbury precision.
Infact the other 7.62 etc are also not indian but seems a private indian company is marketing foreign weapons from small time vendors as “made in india”.

Or perhaps browned one.

India was given a small number of these.

Heck even we Pakistanis had them (in rather large numbers) before we phased them out for licensed DSHKs & 14.7mms.
Again thankfully we developed a lighter local HMG, PK-16.

No, it's not. They control all IPR of all it's rifles and snipers, they've done rapid modifications of these platforms. The early rifle model prototype dont look the same as the recent shown models.

They have a partnership with Lewis Machine Tools, but getting tech from them was difficult due to US regulations.

OFB would not show it in their display if it was a direct import. It's either a licensed, or a clone.

 

[DESERT FIGHTER]

Similar to old AK upgrades. Old INSAS getting new furniture.

Yeah FAB defence, you can order one line.

Dude STFU, Ashbury makes custom rifles & accessories. These are their baseline products.
That so called viper is a 1000-1200 dollar rifle.

And that 338 costs around 2000. You can even buy em online.

Regulations lmao.

Yeah right.

Ashbury Saber

SSS defene Saber


Most of these modern snipers look similar, these dont even look a like.

This isnt "buying online". This is modifying the platforms due to user requirements and selling them not just to India, but broad. They got hit with US regulations when dealing with their actual US partner, LMT. And you're talking about buying online and from a company they have no partnership with, what are you smoking?

You buy online give to the user then send it back and have them modify the rifles, snipers again?

NO, they control the IPR of all the snipers and small arms. You dont know what you're talking about. They made rapid modifications from prototype to these show case models due to internal, user trials.

The INSAS modifications is from FAB. Never said it wasnt.

Hey fukin dumbass, what are you going on about? Its a cheap american gun with different furniture?

The same fuckin rifle.

We use range masters,berrets etc, we also use accessories with them. That doesnt mean they are Pakistani made.

You are an idiot who believes in nonsense. People are not.

You nincompoop, its the barrel and firing mechanism that makes a rifle.

You can put like furniture, bipod, sight on it.

You most be the idiot, because I keep repeating myself.

They have one technical partnership, that's with LMT and with Brazilian ammunition company. They couldn't leverage that partnership fully, because of US regulations, restrictions. This is said so by the owner.

Do you know what else is also said? They control the IPR of all their platforms, they can do whatever they please with them.

They have NO partnership with the company you even mentioned. Get a clue, dumbass.

So they, in your idiot idea, buy these in bulk online and want to resell them outside and in India? You're doing a lot of the name calling, but you're the idiot.

Yeah right.

Stfu Why would OFB show a direct import? Do they show Bulgarian AKs, or Tavors at their display? Have common sense.

You are such a fukwit, i stopped arguing with you like 99% of the time.

So you are basically “moaning”, that you cant import these weapons from US, because of US regulations and had to collaborate with another american company for it?


And now they have all rights to the rifle before even selling a single rifle?

This “SS” company.

Here is another clue you idiot, LMT, doesnt make 338 or 7.62 bolt actions.

https://lmtdefense.com/firearms

The stocks on the APOs are however from LMT, from the looks of it.

Why cant you get this through you head?

Step 1: They had trouble with their ACTUAL, legit US small arms technical partner in LMT.

Step 2: And you want me to believe some company they have no inked partnership(no MoU nothing!) with could allow them to bulk buy, or modify, or market, manufacture and sell abroad their rifles, snipers - when they have no partnership with them, unlike LMT? Is that clearly understood?

Step 3: There is not agreement, partnership, etc, etc, etc. with the company which you mentioned.

Step 4: Biggest thing that's not going through your thick head is they control the IPR of these platforms.

Okay dude, these made in india. Fuk them mericans, they copied indian designs and didnt let me gopuswamy take advantage.

Im past 5 years your state owned ordinance factory couldnt produce a fukin rifle and is making insaas clones and now AK clones.

But now you have SS defence to the rescue

OFB and the private sector are completely different. There are several small, but very competent private firms in India. Never said Americans copied Indian designs.You couldnt counter none of what I said, keep it moving son.
