no not talking about recent AKs like 203 , just decades old AKs with just better bought optics instead of sigs.

plenty of pics of both russia ukraine soldiers with Ak-74 , akm , 47 , ak-12

pics just using as reference , not off topic

Might as well use the AKs' captured from terrorists in that case and the Paras would be lucky enough to use the M4s'

I also don't think anyone would want to go with an age-old rifle with wooden furniture on it and even if we did, our UN generals will find a way to screw it up and bump up the price. Oth, this isn't really about the money but more about education, awareness and willingness. If IA gives SSS a chance, I'm sure they can offer their P72 or M72 rifles for <~$700 a piece for volume orders

BEL Holosight.
@Ayan Barat On a side note, the placement/eye relief is based on the shooters perspective right as long as its properly zeroed?

Correct
Red dot/holographic sights don't have their own eye relief like you get on typical sights so you can mount them anywhere you want.

Though as a rule of thumb they're usually mounted in a way that they don't interfere with your helmet mounted NVGs

I've often seen Paras place their optic pretty far ahead which imo doesn't make sense unless they're coupling the red dot/holo with something else like a magnifier/IR



I had the experience of trying out a few ARs' with red dots and I personally felt anything farther than where the trigger is kinda screws up the weight balance and possibly affects maneuverability

I think this is mainly due to thier experience with tavor and mepro mor pro
This makes sense for tavor 21/x 95 but it doesn't make sense for m4 or AK

It's something very specific

Remove M4, AK-203, Tavor and everything form the picture and assume you've a good old AK-47. At some point it got quad rail handguard and further down the line it got a railed dustcover, but not that good at retaining zero. So where exactly you'd put that sight on that AK? Well exactly where you're seeing it on the above M4.

Now add things like training, muscle memory, culture, norm, also the fact that at some point you might use pretty heavy NVGs and you get this arrangement of holographic sight.

But when did we ever use optics with an AK/Insas for our men to be trained on those lines or retain muscle memory. The mods from Fab defense or SSS were extremely limited afaik. Our men don't even use the flip-on sights on these Sigs

Unlike the Marcos, IA and their SOF don't seem to learn from their western counterparts during joint exercises

That is a stupid ass post. Makes no sense. Both are clearly different rifles!

He's lack of basic firearms knowledge.

Like comparing a short-recoil, semi auto, .50 Cal anti-material rifle to a bolt action sniper rifle.

Even if his intent was to say that SSSD rifle is copied then also he chose such a off example that Bro lost all his credibility

PS : Stop paying attention to everything you see on Twatter, you'll get unprecedented levels of mental peace. Or if there's no other option then atleast once go through the person's timeline to get an idea about them
