Pakistan's Service Rifle (G-3, Type-56) Replacement Competition 2016.
- Thread starter Zarvan
- Start date
AK-103 and Zastava M77 have been eliminated from Pakistan's service rifle competition, a DEPO source has confirmed.
The source added that only the 7.62×51mm NATO FN SCAR-H was trialled as PA has no requirement of a 5.56mm assault rifle.

That means CZ Bren is still in? or either SCAR or Beretta with both calibres will win it !
FN SCAR-H, Beretta ARX-200 and MKEK MPT-76 are still competing for replacing G3 (all three are 7.62x51mm).
CZ 806 Bren 2 will almost certainly replace 7.62x39mm Type 56 rifles.

Bro what are you doing. Have you been following the entire trial.All Guns were in trial to replace G3. Both SCAR and Berreta are also offering 7.62 x 39 versions. Now these two Rifles are shortlisted after trials are over and talks have begun and we can hear about the winner during IDEAS 2016. I am hoping SCAR wins but if Berreta are offering TOT and permission to export that even if we have to take help from Arabs we should and produce both in Pakistan. SCAR can go to Armed Forces as well Para Military and Berreta can go to Police. Both can be launched in civilian markets as well as exported.
Stop quoting me to read this BS.

I am the biggest supporter of SCAR from day one and I want Pakistani Armed Forces and Para Military to be equipped with SCAR but if Berreta and Bren are offering us TOT and permission to export than Pakistan should opt for all three even if for that we have to get help from Arab countries. Most of these Arab countries are biggest customers of POF and many European countries are not selling weapons to them directly so SCAR can go to Armed forces and either Bren or Berreta can go to Police. Also all three can be launched in civilian market as well as exported to countries who can't afford buying from Europe. We due to cheap labor and other advantages can offer these Rifles at lower rates.
I have seen reports which confirmed MPT-76 was being tested. It joined the competition after January 2016. I will try to find one for you.
