That means the gun can be field modified to fire 7.62mm or the 5.56mm cartridges, depending on the requirement. That means changing the barrel of the gun, a few other pieces and the magazine (which contains the bullets). It may also include the ability to fire small caliber grenades.
Wow India is really going all out to mordernise it's armed forces. This gun is awesome and is also high on the list with the US military.
I love how almost every country enjoys dealing with India it is because they all respect the country and know that India is not going to reverse engineer their tech or sell it to other nations.
Also heard there is a massive deal in the offering between France and India not talking about the raffy fighter deal here. Something bigger is in the works but it's more a civilian project which involves France, Japan and Germany.
We in France love India and you guys know you can count on us.
