Correct. Second from the right, next to the MPT 76 is an HK417:

In the pic @Zarvan posted

the front sight is up as is the rear sight, it also has a longer barrel and a few extra holes along the upper grip, but it's an HK417.

You'll see cutout slots on the 416, but not often on the 417.

The ones in the pic Zarvan offer are totally different though. It looks as if the gun's got a different front grip altogether.

It's a bit more rounded like this 417.

And is probably closer to this Norwegian version.

It's definitely an HK417 though.
Guess I was right..

Thank you Sven & MilSpec. For the confirmation.

No TOT with hk.

Yeah I guess if selected they will order a million units from HK instead of producing them lol.

According to GHQ... Any weapon selected will be produced unde license...

Unless they select 2 rifles .. One to replace the Type... Which is unlikely..
 
I hate being wrong, but I'm no stubborn *ss to argue when I'm beaten either. It does look more like the MK216 then anything else doesn't it?

Your contribution still nevertheless is appreciated
 
but why we stuck on 7.62 sir ? because we have ammo in hands ?
Sir it is because:
  1. It is a proven ammo, proven in wars and battles more then once
  2. have excellent stopping power over other different ammo options
  3. We have huge stockpiles of this
  4. Our factories are built for this and we are quite good at making this.
And i am sure there will be a couple of other advantages as well. No need to fix something that is not broken! 7.62×51mm is an excellent choice and have we been using any other perhaps then i would have hoped that we changed and change this size.

Despite the advantages being mentioned by arsalan ...One of major advantage of 7.62x51mm is that it can pierce kevlers and can be lethal even at longer range ...

Here is G3A3 at 600 meters piercing 4mm thick plate
