An Indo-Russian joint venture (Indo-Russian Rifles Private Limited– IRRPL) has started the manufacturing process of AK-203 assault rifles in Korwa Ordnance Factory in Amethi district in Uttar Pradesh (UP). This makes India the first country outside Russia which has started the production of AK-200 series assault rifles of the world-famous brand. These assault rifles are meant for the Indian Army and later there are possibilities of supplying these rifles to the paramilitary forces in the country.

AK 203

Rosoboronexport had told Financial Express Online earlier that the AK-203 rifles are fitted with integral Picatinny rails. These are for easy and convenient mounting of tactical accessories and of sights which enable the effective use of weapons in various conditions.

It comes with a special capability barrel and has compatibility with many systems including the ammunition and magazines of AK-47.

It has been reported that one of the largest users of these Russian made Kalashnikov assault rifles are the Indian Army’s Infantry regiments and Rashtriya Rifle (RR) units.

According to an official statement shared with the media by the Russian side on Tuesday (Jan 17, 2023) all the advantages of the traditional AK scheme have been retained in the AK-200-series assault rifles: these include ease of maintenance, durability, and reliability.

And in terms of ergonomics and the ability to mount high-tech additional equipment they also meet the latest requirements for the firearms in the world.

All steel case.

Not able to reload.

Hard on chambers and extractors.

I thought I was pretty clear about that.

He did a video about the Ak-12, which looked quite similar.

I’ve got a Bulgarian AK 74. Accurate up to 200 meters right out of the box. Never had a jam. Totally reliable. Hella rifle. I love shooting it and its a nasty little round you would not want to get shot with. Would not sell it for any amount of money.

The Soviets had some M1 Carbines that we gave them during WWII, so it’s possible that ol’ Mikey T saw one. How do you know that he saw a Garand before he may have saw a M1 Carbine?
