"Pakistan’s Armed Forces are planning to purchase a big number of AK-103 assault rifles as they can be used in the country’s hot weather conditions," the source said.

Pakistani Defense Ministry needs about one million new assault rifles," the source said. The source did not specify the potential proportion of Russian-made automatic rifles.

The 7.62mm AK-103 assault rifle is the most advanced version of the widely-used Kalashnikov AKM automatic rifle.

Well two day ago a friend told me that FN SCAR and AK-103 will be produced. FN SCAR will replace G3 and AK-103 will replace Type 56. I think he is right on this one although he has been proven wrong on several occasions.

What about FN-SCAR ??

FN SCAR is wins trials would replace G3 not Type 56. Type 56 is 7.62 X 39 caliber and G3 is 7.62 X 51. So we are most probably going for two Guns

If it is true, i think military is saving big chunk of money as local security forces such as rangers, FC and police have type 56 with very short number of G3s.

What a waste of money. I wonder whose coffers got filled and who is now going to purchase their third flat in London with this money.

 

[farhan_9909]

So Pakistan will not produce it in POF?The order might not be large enough

 

[Muhammad Omar]

No FN SCAR??

Or are we gonna Make FN SCAR at POF and Get AK 103 from Russia??

Sir I think this Gun will replace Type 56. Pakistan has no other option when it comes to 7.62 X 39 caliber but for G3 I think SCAR would come.

@Zarvan From what I know, the trials aren't even half way done yet, where is ArmyRecognition and you getting this information from?

I don't believe the AK103 has been selected yet, or any rifle for that matter.

AK-103 is most probably replacement for Type 56 and some friends suggest that it's for forces like Anti Narcotics force and others
