LoooSeR Posted March 29, 2021 Report Share Posted March 29, 2021 https://vk.com/ak_info_ru Quote Night shooting of military police officers of the Western Military District in the Nizhny Novgorod Region (c) of the RF Ministry of Defense. The photographs show the AK74M assault rifles and the 1PN93 sight. Spoiler Quote It is clearly seen why, since the second half of the 80s, there was a search for the optimal mass production muzzle device for the AK74 / AK74M. Muzzle devices of the modernized AK74 under the name A60, A61, borrowed from the RPK74, in 1987 showed an excellent muzzle suppression effect, especially when firing in bursts. But the decrease in efficiency at the same time did not satisfy the MO, so until now for the new rifle Army had requirements for the presence of a muzzle brake, while already in the 200th series and in the RMO, flash suppressors (with a compensator function) were introduced.

h44 Posted April 15, 2021 Report Share Posted April 15, 2021 These are the standard barrel length variant of the QBZ-191 Spoiler New pictures of short barrel variant: Spoiler Most likely the QBU-191, precision DMR version: Spoiler They mention that the QBU-191 variant will each come with an LPVO similar to the Trijicon VCOG in this video. It's likely is that the QBU-191 comes with the MLOK type handguard since in the pictures with the rifles with those handguards also seem to come with a LPVO scope. One design requirement is that these rifles must be Wifi compatible (Actually the nightvision scope) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vicious_CB Posted May 6, 2021 Report Share Posted May 6, 2021 If they wanted to compete with the Knights LAMG they could have at least introduced a constant recoil system. The side feed only is interesting but it makes the receiver + feed "tray" overly bulky, they must be joking if they're telling people this chunky boy MG can be used like an assault rifle.

Im more curious about their barrel tech than the gun itself. Another interesting note is that there are no operator barrel changes with EVOLYS. They’re so confident in the metallurgy of the barrel that you won’t have to swap barrels during sustained fire. Barrel changes will require tools and about two to three minutes to accomplish. https://soldiersystems.net/2021/05/07/fn-evolus-the-details/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dang, I was hoping they started making small caliber stellite lined again. Its probably just their CHF barrels with extra thick chrome lining.

roguetechie Posted May 10, 2021 Report Share Posted May 10, 2021 I wouldn't expect much from FN... They still can't get the mk48 right, the m240L is a piece of shit, and the army is paying FN to fuck up m2's in a similar way to Their other portfolio of fuck ups. It would be genuinely surprising if they actually did something decent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoooSeR Posted May 26, 2021 Report Share Posted May 26, 2021 MPL and MPL-1 accepted for service in Rosgvardia Quote The Lebedev modular pistol (MPL) and its modified model MPL-1, developed by the Kalashnikov group of companies (part of the Rostec state corporation), have been adopted by the Federal Service of the National Guard Troops (FSVNG). This was announced on Monday, May 24, by the CEO of the company Dmitry Tarasov. Spoiler MoD purchases Udav pistols Quote For the first time in modern history, the Ministry of Defense begins a massive purchase of Udav pistol systems. According to the plan, which Izvestia got acquainted with, almost 400 million rubles were allocated for the purchase of the first large batch of several tens of thousands of pistols. "Boas" will go mainly into the armament of special forces and intelligence units. The novelty will also be received by ordinary military personnel - drivers, signalmen, logistics specialists. Experts note that the most important feature of the complex has become a powerful cartridge with an armor-piercing bullet and the ability to silently fire. /.../ According to the procurement plan, which Izvestia has at its disposal, the defense department purchases Udav pistols in two main versions: 6P72 and special purpose 6P72-1. The kit of the latter includes an effective silencer and a laser designator. Deliveries of both versions will begin this year and should be completed by November 10, 2023.

Surely Rosgvardia units would benefit from a cartridge that can pierce most commercially available vests, while the military personnel with less time at the range would benefit from a lower recoil impulse cartridge. It's not like 9x21 is going to defeat a level IV plate. Then again, I can understand why the Rosguard wouldn't want to subject themselves to TsNIITOChMash quality control.
