India's own multi caliber rifle

[Water Car Engineer]

Good when are they due for mass production

Dont know, MSMC keeps going back into trials. And Multi Cal Rifle prototypes are being tested by the developer. They'll do modifications from the testing feedback, so design not 100% final. Will see some changes here and there.

Any news on MICWIS

Last time I read, they're testing the rifle with it's 5.56 and 7.62 barrels. It's 6.8 barrel, etc. is under development and will be tested as well.

Any info about it right now?

None, just that it's under development. We dont know if there's a prototype testing, or what.

MCIWS looks like a hybrid of many modern guns. A mutant combo of SCAR, M4 etc.

Its DRDO's version of Israeli Galil.

Last we know is that DRDO screwed up the mono-barrel rifle compelling IA to opt for imports. Let's see how this one develops.

I would very much love to see a short barrel version of MCIWS..The barrel of MCIWS is quite long.

something like this would be better...

but does that mean low range??as mainly CQB Rifles have short barrels..

It has to and it will.There is simply no way on earth GoI is gonna approve the import of 1.5 million assault rifles for crying out loud!!

Its DRDO's version of Israeli Galil.

And from which angle does it look like a Galil to you sire??

Its DRDO's version of Israeli Galil.

Why did you passed on such a judgement. MCIWS looks more advance than 1970s GALIL. DRDO can simply copy Tavor if it has to copy a Israeli assault rifle.

Yes.. Import of arms should be last resort.

 

[The_Sidewinder]

Most assault rifles in the world look that way....trust me.

True that.

True that,in fact Galil more closely resembles the INSAS!!By the way,do not expect a reply from our omniscient moderator ji.
