Indian Small Arms and Weapons

[Mr.Evil]

For people really acquaintant with firearms, this line of yours can be truly nightmarish

Those “experts” can cry me a river sig sauer except some cases have pretty good quality weapons

That guy doesn't feel anymore

After hearing Indians call it raaket laancher for decades, he has been thoroughly desensitized

Eventually everyone's going to get Mk-4 because it's now being produced here

Wasn't India also producing AT4? Are they being inducted in squad level?

From 2014 onwards, every single model of SIG Sauer has been recalled atleast once. From P320 to the most recent Cross...every single one

Can confirm. Sig's from the SEK armoury have been recalled multiple times. Hence they are being replaced with the HK433 .300BLK. Sig's will be secondary now.

As a fellow biased man iam gonna ignore all the facts and logics here

I identify as sig sauer

Just be careful while climbing down stairs, people around you can't afford you falling on a hard surface

So IA has Mk2, Mk3, Mk4 right? Mk4 on SF level and Inf. squads get Mk3/Mk2?

MK3 mostly I believe MK4 are in service with SF and will be replacing MK3s in INF

It's already with the infantry (at the most basic levels).

INSAS LMG, no frequent sightings these days?
NEGEV it is.

I don't see the Insas LMG being written off anytime soon. Wasn't there a recent upgrade announced?

More images from the Ukrainian frontlines with bright yellow 155mm shells coming soon I guess

Afternoon poor @ezsasa was crying on how come people post 84mm in Small Arms thread
And now you come with 155mm

Still negev are seen more and more which is good thing

I always wondered why hydralics based gas pistons are not used in gun butt for recoil management?

It's not like they're not used, but rather used in a very limited number. As for why, I've talked about it earlier

interestingly a hydraulic buffer is considered a downgrade because definitely it reduces recoil slightly better but hydraulic fluids tend to change their viscosity according to temperatures, so firing rate also changes as you go from Arizona to Alaska

In short, hydraulic-gas piston provides a marginal improvement in recoil reduction compared to a spring but the associated hassle is too much.

Also I HATE that sniper rifle furniture!

so how do artillery guys manage as artillery have gas struts to manage recoil? Esp when our army has these series of tests where they will do tests in cold higher regions and then fly it off to hot rajasthan for trials?

Now you're saying something that deserves a 155mm HE at your position

Let's assume the temperature gradient causes a 20% decrease in rate of fire
> For a 155mm howitzer, whose absolute maximum rate of fire is 8 would now fire at 6.4 rounds per minute
> For a 7.62x51mm MG with a RPM of 700 this would mean 560

Which one do you think would be more "noticeable"?

Also as you're not constraints by dimensions and weights on a 4 ton howitzer as compared to a 4kg MG...you can have all kind of valves and gauges and accumulators to fine tune the hydraulics for each terrain.
