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

[Zarvan]

SCAR 17 in 6.5 mm Creedmoor. This calibre comfortably outperforms 7.62 mm beyond 500 metres. Some armies are asking if it could be a future military ammunition standard? Possibly, but there's a problem. 6.5 mm CM eats barrels: 2,000 rounds versus 10,000-15,000 rounds for 7.62 mm.

The thing is that conventional guns are going to be a lot cheaper than guns in 6.8 SPC or 6.5 CM as they are going to be expensive plus their barrel life will be short. FN SCAR is already expensive and using 6.5 CM chambered FN SCARs in long run will bleed pockets of the owners.

What I've heard is that rails will be there. Otherwise MoI have enough bucks to install rails on abandoned railway tracks as well.

Please let the scar go…it’s such a poor weapon. All it will get you is cracks and failures for an Uber-expensive weapon with little utility. It’s specifically designed for SF use and not mass adoption anyways.

How much time will they take to equip the troops?

MoI Ak-103's handguard comes with 3 rails,two small one's on both sides for mounting laser or a light,a lower one for mounting foregrip.

Dust cover is hinged one and comes with a rail on top,which allows user to mount different kind of scopes.

Both front and back sight are adjustable for windage and elevation.

Stock is folding with adjustable cheek rest and pistol grip comes with a storage compartment.

Over all built is very solid,it's a type of weapon you can trust in all kinds of geography and weather.

Seems like Indian and Pakistani Army standard issue rifle‘s gonna be the same then, good for interoperability between the two armies .
