Kalashnikov Group developed AK modernization kit that allows use of modern red dot sights, which substantially increases combat effectiveness. It is a drop-in kit which allows converting any stock AK-47/AKM or AK-74 rifle into a bit more modern weapon making it more adjustable and suitable for accessorizing.

Russia exports more than 100 000 AKs


Kalashnikov-export-660x273.jpg

Sanctions aside, things seem to be going well for Russian firearms export.

Rosoboronexport is the only state organization in Russia for exporting the entire range of military, dual-use products and services and technologies.

The Director General of Rosoboronexport, Alexander Mikheev, reported that the volume of foreign deliveries of various versions of the Kalashnikov assault rifle exceeded 100 000 units for 2017.

According to Mr. Mikheev Rosoboronexport concluded seven foreign contracts in 2017 for the supply of more than 100 000 Kalashnikov rifles of various modifications for export.

The bulk of supplies are from the “One hundred series” like the AK-101, AK-102, AK-103, AK-104 and AK-105.





Here’s a brief introduction to these different models:



In short the AK-101 and -102 are 5,56×45 mm.

The AK-103 and -104 are 7,62х39 mm.

The AK-105 is 5,45х39 mm.



In a bit more detail. Please note that the pictures are not to scale.

Kalashnikov AK101 meets all of the Land Forces’ and Special Forces’ needs.

Plastic folding buttstock ensures convenience on the march, during transportation and landing operations. The weapon retains the ability to fire with the folded buttstock.

The forearm, magazine, buttstock, and pistol grip are made of high-strength plastic and feature great durability to stress. Protective coatings ensure excellent corrosion resistance of metal parts.

The AK101 features a base to mount a 40-mm under-barrel grenade launcher or a knife-bayonet; and a side mounting rail for night and daylight sights.

Muzzle compensator provides for cyclic fire accuracy and further reduces muzzle climb and burst recoil.

Company quality control system and all-around test programs make the AK101 the ultimate world standard in 5.56mm.



AK-102 in 5,56×45

AK103 in 7,62х39

Furthermore, Rosoboronexport has also assisted several countries to start up production under license of AK rifles.

More than 15 000 Kalashnikov rifles have been manufactured under license in 2017. Not a great number, but somebody is making them. It would be interesting to know which country or countries that are producing these rifles? I couldn’t find any information about this.

Since the beginning of 2001 several hundred thousand units have been produced under license.

CZ Scorpion Evo 3 Machine Gun | FULL AUTO!!!





The CZ Scorpion Evo 3 made a heck of a splash when it was introduced in 2010 and an even bigger splash when it hit the US market in 2015. In this episode of TFB TV, Patrick gets a chance to put some ammo through a factory machine gun and really get acquainted with the sub gun. Since this is a dealer sample, it gets all of the cool things like a 4 position selector switch, a folding stock, and we even have a tri-lug adaptor on the end of the machine gun so a Dead Air Wolf 9SD suppressor can be fitted for the ultimate in sub gun goodness.

Big thanks to Boeh from SAW Inc. for loaning us the firearm and thanks to Triple C range in Cresson, Texas for letting us make a ton of noise!

Hazrat u have commited blasphemy in your own post :omghaha:
SCAR is participating in 7.62 X 51 category why you keep forgetting there are two tenders not one. One is to replace G3 and one is to replace Type 56. SCAR is participating to replace G3 not Type 56 for Type 56 AK-103 and BREN are main contenders
 
Its been ages since we discussed ANYTHING actually useful on the thread :D
Even if someone tries to, like asking question that may help people learn more, those are ignored, videos are shared and we move on (if we have).

Would have appreciated is SOMEONE/ANYONE could have detailed the differences in AW-47 and AK103 for the readers to benefit from. Zarvan seems to know that 103 is much better but have nothing to share on "WHY" so perhaps someone else can do that? At least use this thread SOMETIMES for something constructive! PLEASE.
