nah that's not RPO-A but vietnam era M72 LAW

M72 LAW - Wikipedia

en.wikipedia.org

still dangerous though

RPG 18 is the correct answer as per @Sathish

I think there seems to be a plot afoot wherein saboteurs will use the Kisan Morcha to move close to army trains and convoys and then launch surprise attacks.

Even if you remove reservations, it's still gonna be same. I know it's favourite pass time for Indians to blame everything on reservation but it's the institution culture which is the main culprit promoting mediocrity of unimaginable levels. I have extensive experience in dealing with govt orgs and departments and the UC guy was equally or more incompetent or corrupt.
Anyone working in a govt org or with them can relate.

• Roll 1 Trauma Pouch IFAK (Individual First Aid Kit) (Signature Item of FOG)

The Roll 1™ Trauma Pouch is a Dangler® style pouch that stores Individual First Aid Kit (IFAK) contents and offers rapid deployment in an emergency. The concept for the Roll 1™ Trauma Pouch is credited to our good friends at Forward Observations Group, who originally designed and fabricated the prototype pouch for fellow SOF in Syria.

The Roll 1™ is intended to be worn in the opening of the rear body armor plate pocket: occupying unused real estate, staying out of the way, and adding lumbar support for full-kit vehicle rides. The Roll 1’s open ended, ambidextrous outer pouch enables access on both sides of the casualty if trauma care is required. Simply grab the left or right deployment pull tab, yank out the insert to gain access to IFAK contents, and go to work. The Roll 1™ can also be mounted to the front of a plate carrier, battle belt, or anywhere a large enough hook and loop Velcro interface is used.

All they're doing is ranting continuously about how the mags crack in cold and how the fire selector malfunctions, most problems that were ironed out in later 1B iteration.
Looks like all these naysayers have taken their info from Wikipedia.

Lol. It was a shit rifle and even after two decades it still is. May be mags don’t crack.It still jams up bug time.Its prone too rust too.The weapon is crude quality its not at all blued the paint is mostly house paint.We had every opportunity to buy some quality Ak variant from East Germany but somehow went ahead with this frankenstein kid which incorporated all the unnecessary shit from a host of other weapons delivering nothing worth all those incorporations. Those East German Aks would have been fine .

The Pakistani 'Bastard' AK 203 - VSK 100-3

Pakistani army and paramilitary forces have been seen using a new AKM derivative made in Belarus is recent years. The Pakistanis have previously attempted license manufacture the AK 103 under the auspices of Russia however the AK 203 deal with India has closed this avenue in 2019.



https://theprint.in/defence/russia-...s-assures-india-of-no-deals-in-future/264004/

This left a vacuum in the 'submachine gun' category of small arms of the Pakistani forces who have been using the Type 56 rifles in some form for over half a century. Pakistan had even produced a semi-official AK 103 copy called the SMG PK 21 with an accuracy of >3.5 MOA and a 400m effective range, however this variant never entered mainstream service.

The Belarussians with the silent blessing of Russia, stepped into the vacuum with their VSK-100 rifle offering which was a 'fork' of the AK 103M/AK 203 in all but name.

Review of the VSK 100-3 by a serving Pakistan army/police personnel. Key points about the weapon :

• Full length picatinny rails
• Upper and lower polymer handguards with picatinny rails at 12'o clock and 6'o clock positions
• Provision for picatinny rails at 3'o clock and 9'o clock positions like the AK 103 series
• Improved polymer pistol grip
• Higher quality recoil spring guide rod
• Hinged dust cover
• Vepr style folding stock with cheek riser. (Folding factory stock will NOT accept any AK/Saiga stock because it does not use a standard AK type rear trunnion.)
• No lightening cuts on gas block or bolt-carrier group (but lighter)
• 1975 Type 56-2 pattern side adaptor (sights)
• Izhmash Side-Stamped style steel AK magazines
• Mostly issued iron sights and sometimes with red dot or Chinese thermal sights

Seems like the VSK-100 has become the new standard infantry carbine/assault rifle for the Frontier Corps in Baluchistan.

Current version of INSAS is fine. Well we are doing FAB mod on it. The INSAS Family gives rise to current guns like CQB, Ugram, MCIWS. ARDE needs to have certain overseas consultant who can help them to refine the gun especially ergonomics and modern chasis.
