New Turkish Military Rifle

[rOmiLaYu]

Dropping the HundK G3 for......wait for it....another 7.62x51 rifle.

Looks a lot like the Beretta ARX100.

yeah, cuz the turks fight in lots of wars and need cutting edge.. wait a minute, is that tuna?

It is interesting to me that the more "active" militaries in the world remain with the 5.56 and the more "sedentary" militaries keep the 7.62.

I believe they perfer sit and wait other than head down and charge .. That is what I gather from this change.

Either way I hope a civilian version vets released. I kinda want to send some lead down range with it.

Eh....that hand stop slider thingie bugs me. Plus...it's just a piston driven AR-10. Not very exciting to me.

Valid points. I can't argue that.

Proprietary polymer piston AR10. Yuck, no thanks.


Fucking turks.

They know how to knock off a pistol though.

It's cool if its affordable. Too much technology is filling up the $1200 plus range.

It's cool of its affordable. Too much technology is flirting up the $1200 plus range.

No way this ever comes to US Market at less than $1500.

I'd be interested if it comes over in a "budget" roll similar to the Canik pistols. It they try to sell it as a premium rifle, this will get beat to death by existing AR's and AK's in my opinion. I could be wrong.

 

[Laufen]

So they spent a ton of cash to replace a perfectly capable and battle proven platform with a piston driven AR-10. lol

 

[Shemp]

HK G3 would have been just fine...

 

[boss_hawg]

they probably should move to 762x39 because there will be a lot of it available on the battlefield...if they ever decide to get off their ass and goat-fuck those goat fuckers right across the border
