As per the author John Kennedy, the AK-103 purchase is not part of the rifle tender, it is a separate program. All off-the-shelf pcs.


I think the rifle tender is moving to a situation where, POF will continue manufacturing 7.62x51mm rifles and 7.62x39mm rifles will be imported, as done before with Type 56.

as per H Khan of pakdef (1) Kalashnikov company has offered licence manufacturing of AK-308 (7.62x51) in Pakistan.

If this news is true than the purchase of AK-103 (AK-308 is based on AK-103) might be indication of future service rifle

Thank God for kalashnikov, they made the.51 for exports only and right now Pakistan needs it ,
If license production is given then bag it ,
Ak series never fail ,
It's like having a water cup made from metal and one fancy one from glass,
The fancy one looks better but drop them and then only the metal one works ,
SSG always prefer Ak T56 over ar 15 when they know their will be rain mud etc

replacing Type56 with Authentic AK will be the best deal!

Look at the gun. The exterior are all pressed parts and not investment casting or machined. This reduces the cost significantly maybe that is what the Russians are are trying to pull. The downside is accuracy. This gun can be built by bluestar or similar shop in KPK. It’s the the investment casting where POF has to invest. Not a big deal. I do it in my Kitchen.

Haris also said license production of RPG 29 which is perfect fit with AK.
 

Start watching after 6th minute to know about latest AK Assault Rifles
 
it really is a difficult position. Really need to replace the Type 56+G3 but nothing new is upto the par:undecided: that includes FN SCAR:partay::partay::partay:
Why the army is not considering the HK-416 and 417? US sanctions may be? Yeah the rifles are expansive but we already have license for producing G-3, why not get one for HK-416 and 17?

HK are not selling to non NATO countries. The reason no one knows. But that dosent mean there aren't other rifle makers just as good but commercially not as big.

Akhri sansain lay rahi hai Europe ki shan. Apni maan bhi bech chuka Europe China ko.
Behtar hai keh ham apna rukh Russia ki taraf ya China ki taraf kerlain.
 
After the selection process started in 2015 (see page 1) and after 400 pages of evaluation by the members here, has the new service rifle been selected? Lol! ;)
