Pakistan's Service Rifle (G-3, Type-56) Replacement Competition 2016.

[Super Falcon]

HK 416 is far better than Colt I would say get HK 416 and scar H

 

[RAMPAGE]

I am thinking something else for past 3 days. Even if we select SCAR and produce all the versions still we have massive Army and Navy + Marines and Air Force and Para Military and finally Police and most probably we are going to increase their size in near future so with this size force even SCAR with all its versions won't be enough. Pakistan needs to have two or three different Multi Caliber Guns like all versions of SCAR and HK 417 and HK 416 or 7.62 and 5.56 versions of Berreta or SiG or this new Colt 901 which is available in 7.62 X 51 and 7.62 X 39 and 5.56 X 45. We need at least two of these series with TOT. One SCAR or Berreta or HK can't meet our needs. We are not France or Germany I mean when it comes to size of forces @balixd @Horus @Arsalan


G36 is a disaster with serious issues in hot environment

Stop posting stupid pictures and answer the question. No matter How good a Gun is it's impossible to equip 2.5 million force with same Gun or not to have two to three different Guns in Arsenal

 

[Thorough Pro]

You don't equip the whole army in one day or one go, you do it piece by piece starting from your elite strike units and working your way down slowly over a decade or so depending on their role and needs. one platform is always preferable as it is easy to manufacture, maintain, repair and train. Special units however always select the weapons or combination of weapons on their operational needs.

What was Pakistan first Assault/Battle Rifle which was later replaced by G3?
And how much time it took?
Was .303 our first rifle?Lee Enfield?

then man with the right mind give a better reason?

The whole thing began in 2014 deployment of German soldier in Afghanistan. Where these compalins of malfunctions first time heard. Keeping the record of G36 from early nineties and standard of manufacturer in the mind these complains sounds fishy in first place. Also independant sources do not confirm these accusations. Most German believed that corporate conspiracy is behind these complains.

Unfortunately I am not privileged to share the links showing stress tests of G36 which proves that claims against G36 are not right.

HK had done case against German Army on issue of G36. Also Saudis uses G36 in most hot enviorment we should ask them

 

[Thorough Pro]

I think it goes like this
1947 - 1967 Le-Enfield no 4
1956 - 1967 M1 Garand
1967 - Present H&K G3

Almost for 49 years G3 have served us. Dam that is way too long.

Some Pics of 65 war suggest G3 was in fact somewhat operational

If true that it makes G3 a 50 year old Gun for us. Well its definitely time to rest this beast and go for younger one. It has done us great service.
