Sources call MPT as Milli Piyade Tüfeği or as Modern Piyade Tüfeği... Which one is right ?.. IMO both of them are right too...

But what's it's official name ?..

I had hoped that a rifle would be produced that would signify Turkishness, the descendants of great empires. This rifle is but a copy, no originality at all.

When we think of;

US > M-16
Israel > Tavor
Britain > SA80
Germany > G36
Russia > AK
China > Type 95

Turkiye? That AR clone. This is what the International community will think, doesn't matter if it is a great rifle, it is a clone.

SSM messed up, MKEK shouldhave never been chosen to design and develop a national prestige.

Both AR and AK are german weapon clones specially AK

They didn't even try to change its shape just they changed the caliber
what about Makarov pistol???????

But in reality it is just German licensed German "tufegi". ...

If you think the MPT-76 is a clone, you must also think the AK47 is a clone, because that's a hybrid of elements of previous rifles - the gas system of the German StG-44, the safety mechanism of the Model 8 and another part of the of the M1 Garand.

Isn't it weird though, how nobody calls the AK47 a clone? You know why that is? It's because it's not, and neither is the MPT-76. Both are, like most rifles, improvements on similar designs that came before them.

Jane's has an article that talks a bit about the differences in the design. Google "mpt-76 janes" and it's the first article.
