Whats not on FB is NOT authentic! Should not have mentioned it. It is "USELESS" as some people love to say! :P
because AK rifles are not KOOL or as say KEWL.......they are rough, they are tough.....AR platform is prone to malfunction in a dusty environement, then you have another debate of Direct Injection vs Piston Driven ....... but because AR looks cool with all those goodies, they get the upper hand, while maskeen AK 74 gets left out......if ammo price & availability was not an issue i would have personally gone for a 5.45 but just because of ammo not being available as much as 5.56, i have to opt for .223....

Why PAF still using G3 rifle other than AR15 family or AK family assult rifle?

In my mind those 7.62*51 battle rifile is hard to aim in automatic mode. Why you need ammunition that strong?

one shot one kill
762x51 has more stopping power than x39 and 556.
we don't want our enemy to be injured,either he lives or doesn't.

Injured soldiers create more burden on the enemy vs dead ones. If you are dead, no one gives a shit, but if you are injured, then more soldiers and resources have to be directed towards rescue, extraction, treatment etc and that is all helpful to the opposing side.

It also has low stopping power n range.

Failed in Afghanistan.. try that against a soldier wearing a body armour.

Even Indians now plan to shift to 7.62... just like US and others.

Ok guys, just for update, the new rifle program isnt dead yet. Things are still moving. Trials ended. Position wise 1. Fn scar design 2. cz 807 3. Arx-200 4. Ak-103A.

Financial nego may also have been nearly finalized, some feedback is being taken, after which most probably final decision will be taken.

But hopefully final would be between fn scar and cz-807, as both rifles are nearly clone of each other, rather cz made as a clone with just slight changes, rest same.

So lets hope for the best.
