ID this assault rifle anyone?
-
Interesting place to mount a sight, and interesting positions for rails. Left side has one rail, right side has 2, top has 1. The right rear rail (for batteries?) being very near the ejection port.
-
G316???
Quite sure not FAMAS...
-
Oh wait... It does look like certain variation of FAMAS...
Though for FAMAS, the bayonet is usually above the barrel...
No idea which bullpup rifle is this... maybe prototype?
-
the rifle is STS..............
STS = Storm Trooper Special...............
gonna appear in Star Wars Episode 7
-
hmm..chiobu with mascara?
-
The STS is the Sten. My guess is that it's the TAR. Think the Indians call it the X-95. Note the similarities of the front part of the handgrip with the TAVOR as well as the front high charging handle above the barrel.
-
Under, Tavor lets the shooter choose which side he wants the charging handle because there are slots on both sides. This rifle only has handle on the left and picatinny rail on the right.
It might be a licence produced Tavor, if so, really no expense was spared because parts that are very challenging to modify / no need to modify (ejection port, underside shape of stock, mag release) are modified.
-
Can't see clearly, but isn't there a gap in the right hand side for switching the charging handle? Anyway, you compared the front of the grip with the TAR yet? It's almost identical, so I'd say it's a TAR/X-95, maybe 9mm from the looks of the barrel, but too small a pic to tell too. Either way, it's Israeli and a version of the TAR-21
-
If you see the 2nd pic, the charging handle slot runs from the circle in front to the 1st of 4 circles. In the 1st pic, there is just a P-rail.
-
lol That's not a p-rail! See the circle in front of it? It's the charging handle knob seen from the top! :)
-
It does look like a p-rail. If it was a charging handle, the slot would reach all the way to the 4 circles there. Cannot be two slots of uneven length?
Also it looks just like the P-rail next to the ejection port.
-
We all agree that it's a TAR or a variant right? Anyone thinks differently?
-
It strongly resembles and may indeed be, but I find it hard to believe someone would take the effort to change every corner of a very good rifle.
I'm still analyzing the photo. Among the differences I've found are the distance between magazine and trigger, fastening pins on top vs below rifle.
This rifle takes a number of steps backwards:
-I'm quite sure the charging handle is one-sided. Since this rifle has a carrying handle, why don't they put it under the handle so it can be ambi?
-Look at the pistol grip in the first pic. Do you find it odd the grippable portion ends below the trigger? At the same "height" as the trigger, it becomes very fat. Would it be hard to squeeze the trigger?
-
Alize, compare the TAR and the MTAR to see how someone can butcher the looks of a rifle. I'm betting the army used M-16s before this, the main body mod redesigned the handle to turn it into a M-16 lookalike, my guess is for conformation.
-
You may well be right. MTAR looks very different, but only the charging handle was moved and grip shape changed, mechanical dimensions are still the same, pins in the same places.
I'm quite sure this rifle is not a H&K product...
-
Looks like a Khaybar KH2002, made in Iran if im not wrong :D
But the charging handle looks like its onthe left side of the weapon, so i'm not very sure what weapon is this :(
