Canada uses the slingshot and Mexico uses the '64 Impala (lowered/hydraulics).  [:)>]

The Fusil Automatique Leger (FAL) or Light Automatic Rifle (LAR) manufactured by Fabrique National was first made in Belgium...

Hey Kuiper,

Every AR15/M16 fan must own The Black Rifle.

Tuukka,

Okay countries are cleared.

Now name the country that manufactured them and if you can in which town.

You studied the black rifle book, this should be a walk in the park.

Damn M4c I thought I had it right ;)

Tuukka,

You'll get my everlasting admiration for studying the book of books for the AR15 series.

AI was located in the same town I live in, hard to imagine that one of world most used weapon systems got some improvements in my little country.

Most countries dont make their own.  Look at all the AKs, G3s and FALs out there.

The countries with their own designs and not purchased ones.  Many make copies and shouldn't count:

US
Korea
Singapore
Russia
England
Germany
Austria
Switzerland
France
Israel
Italy
Spain
Sweden

Im sure there are others, anymore ideas?

Here are a couple of Qs.

Countries of origin:

.30 Models 2 and 62 Cristobal rifles

7.62 MPiKMS-72 rifle

7.62 Type 68 rifle

5.56 RPS-001 rifle

The clock is ticking gentlemen...

Hi,

Tuuka, I think the .30 christobal rifles are .30M1 carbines rfiles from Cuba and the type 68 is the North korean AKM clone.

The other two I don't know (yet).

Here's one for you guys to make things interesting.

Cristobal, no go

Type 68, correct


The rifle shown could be a Russian prototype of somekind.

RG,

Is that an EM2, of british design?

Link Posted: 5/31/2001 12:15:02 PM EDT
[#24]
Hi guys,

That's fast!

Anyway, Tuuka, the Cristobal is a 30m1 carbine rifle, but not from Cuba but from the Dominican Republic.

The rifle in the pic is a Armenian K-3 in 5.45x39. Used only locally. Purely a Kalash in bullpup.

I'll take a shot at the MPiKMS, that's an former DDR AKM clone with synthetic stocks.

Cheers,
