That's not going to happen. We would have no tested these Guns in first place if we were planning to do that. One of these 5 Guns in trials would be selected as Pakistan's future assault rifle

Is the added benefit of the 6.5mm worth the cost? Remember, POF already produces 7.62x51mm and 7.62x39mm, and it is a tried and tested caliber, such that even new rifle designs (such as the SCAR, BREN and ARX) are retaining them.
It is about the advantages of 6.5mm vs advantages of retaining the ammunition we have already in stock, in production, which we are good at, which we have tried and tested in battle field. That is what @Quwa is trying to guide you too, that is what almost everyone with any little bit real life experience of such matters will tell you. I hope you also do understand all that!!a quick question do you understand the advantages of the 6.5 mm Grendel clearly
6.5 Grendel is based on which Casing? Do you know this?a quick question do you understand the advantages of the 6.5 mm Grendel clearly

Yep - you can carry more 6.8mm rounds in a single magazine, thereby enabling you to carry less mags. The 6.8 also offers more punch than the 5.56. So it is a good round, no one was ever disputing that fact.are you one of dem
yeah but isn't the 7.62 mm round heavy, i mean with a smaller round you can carry more of them, this would force more load onto our soldiers making them less agile and more vulnerable on the battlefield
any new news about the service rifle replacement competition
I am one of those who are trying to look at the bigger and fuller picture rather then going all praise based on one or two advantages.are you one of dem
Sure it is. NO ONE is saying that 6.8 wont have its advantages. The debate is about comparing and weighting advantages of both types against each other. In that case, 7.62 outweigh 6.8 by a considerable margin. It does for Pakistan at least! Well it did for US too but that is not the point here.yeah but isn't the 7.62 mm round heavy, i mean with a smaller round you can carry more of them, this would force more load onto our soldiers making them less agile and more vulnerable on the battlefield
Well during Army Chief visit to POF during which he was briefed about Gun trials he also inaugurated the production plant of 7.62 X 39 ammo. So POF is now producing 7.62 X 39.The member who is favoring 6.5 Grendel should realize that the round is based on Soviet/Russian 7.62x39 and it has been debated that instead of purchasing this new expensive cartridge it is best to use the existing 7.62x39 as it will still deliver a heavier punch and PA is doing just that they are keeping 7.62x39 and x51 as well which is a smart move. 6.5 is being favored as a successor to 556 not 762 cartridges
we have been producing 7.62x39 it was used heavily in operations and before, we just upgraded the machines that produced the ammunition and expanded the production as well.Well during Army Chief visit to POF during which he was briefed about Gun trials he also inaugurated the production plant of 7.62 X 39 ammo.

After FN SCAR I support this Gun. Well we don't have money otherwise FN SCAR could replace G3 and also giving real 7.62 X 51 Power to Special Forces and Infantry and this Gun can replace Type 56. I wish we had at least 50 Billion dollars as our budget
