Ak 56 was Chinese Copy of Ak 47.
This Indian version is almost same as Ak 47 at a glance (I am not a professional).But it mechanisms are much different and an influence of Insas.
Probably for paramilitary and MCIWS is a next gen rifle.Far different abilities than this.

*Type 56

LOL Type 56 is a cheap Chinese copy. Even the copy is not 'yours'.
Comparing this to this is a joke.

Please go through this forum and you will know that India having so much money and so called tech know how is behind in this field, that is why they are even late in copying a 50 year old gun design.

Pakistani Modified AK-47

not feeling it, the obsession with AK and its subsequent designs should end in many countries.
shouldve invested more on some indigenous design that incorporates new concepts. the AK has been around for over 70 years.

By the way, that gun was not modified, but was accessoriesed by Saheed Captain. Although I agree we are late to copy Ak series, but INSAS does its job, its not a that bad gun either mate.

Moreover PA doesn't use that accessoriesed gun.

There will be more modifications as per army's request. I hope they are going to achieve similar to M4Carbine. Maybe a bull-up version gonna help in this regard.

WTF? what fun in "developing" a 67 year old design that our Derra gun makers have been making for decades using hand tools.

Are you sure you guys are not just slapping together parts acquired from different countries?

Ishapore factory develops Indian variant of AK-47

Indian Variant of AK-47​

KOLKATA: Rifle Factory, Ishapore, one of the oldest ordnance factories in the country, has successfully designed an assault rifle on the lines of the AK-47.

Sources in the Ordnance Factory Board said the prototype of this weapon had successfully cleared field trials by the Army, the Indian Air Force and the Sashastra Seema Bal.

The Ishapore factory will soon start production of 50,000 units of this rifle in the first phase.

For over a decade now, the Ordnance Factory Board has been attempting to develop an indigenous assault rifle on the lines of the AK-47. Initially, there was some embarrassment after an ordnance factory displayed an indigenous replica of the AK-47 at a defence expo in Delhi. This didn't go unnoticed and Mikhail Kalashnikov, the inventor of the world's most sold and used assault rifle that goes by his name, threatened to file a copyright violation suit against the Indian ordnance factory.

"Since then, our designers have been attempting to develop an assault rifle, using the AK-47 as a model but without replicating any of its mechanism. Three ordnance factories tried to develop their own variants. These were Rifle Factory of Ishapore, the Small Arms Factory of Kanpur and the Ordnance Factory of Tiruchirapalli. The Ishapore factory has a long history of developing and making rifles. During the World Wars, this factory produced .303 bolt-action rifles for the Allied forces. After the 1962 Sino-India conflict, the factory developed and built the 7.62mm self-loading semi-automatic rifle. This rifle was called the Ishapore Rifle and it went on to become the mainstay for the Indian security forces for several decades. In the 90's, the factory started manufacturing the 5.56mm Insas rifles that are still the primary personal weapon of the Indian infantryman," an official said.

The three factories at Ishapore, Kanpur and Tiruchirapalli built prototypes that underwent tests for the first time earlier this year. Minor defects were detected in all three variants. While the one developed by the Ishapore factory was declared fit in all other aspects, it failed to operate successfully in mud. An assault rifle has to be effective in all conditions, even when fired from under slush.

"This defect was rectified subsequently and when the final round of tests was conducted, the Ishapore variant was declared the best. This is an improved version of any assault rifle and the designers borrowed several facets from the 5.56mm Insas, which was also developed at Ishapore, while making this rifle. With the Insas going out of production, facilities at the Ishapore factory were lying idle. The new order will sustain the factory for the times to come," the official added.

Sounds familiar!

Last time your engineers copied various parts/designs of many different guns, put them together and gave that frankengun an indigenous name "Insas". This time that used some brains to copy.

About time we followed the global norm of taking an established rifle, changing a few minor details and giving it a new indigenous name.

hmmmmm. Guns around the world uses almost the same mechanisms. So its not surprising that INSAS has most components influanced from foreign guns. AK47 being copied & manufactured all around the world for last 67 years in vast numbers due to the simplicity, durability & reliability of the design. Even a person with some simple tools can manufacture this gun.
India been producing this gun under license since a long long time. Its only now, that we decided to join the long list of countries having its own variant.
