according to my sources, PA wants to stick with 7.62 as their standard caliber. Not sure whether its 7.62*51mm or 7.62*39mm.

M4s are already in use by Pakistani SSG.
The Turks also unveiled their Mehmetcik-1 rifle...which MKE is reportedly claiming to be their own developed product and not a licensed copy...though it looks a lot like HK416.
Pakistan's POF also has its PK-08.
Are PA looking to change from 7.62x51mm NATO to 5.56x45mm NATO?
There comes the decision of new rifle..!!
Well, sometime back it was NATO agreement that their partners phase out the old, more lethal 7.62mm bullets........hence Pakistan must change the bullet also....
Concept being that 5.56mm is enough to put a soldier out of service but not kill him...7.62 is too deadly.
BUllpops may not fit to the army doctrines. You need a long rifle for bionet charge+ close combat battles (correct me if I'm wrong)
are you sure the PK-08 is 100% indegenous
Yes it is!
Its kind of a hybrid between a MP-5A3 and G3A3!short,light and looks great!
But uses 5.62mm.
