| Primus Pilus | Post; Turkey unveils new infantry rifle![]() It's called Mehmetcik-1. Based on advanced HK designs, jam free and very durable, can be modified with all kinds of electronics and grenade launcher. And its per unit price is much cheaper than other rifles in the same league. Suitable for both regular infantry and SF use. Serial production starts in 2009. Likely will be available for NATO and allied countries. Video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qjW52acGbfg |

| Primus Pilus | At a glance looks like a modification of the M4 model. They redesigned the front sight post, but still didnt truly float the barrel. Those buttstocks look oversized and bulkey, but may provided a better weld. I love the 145 on the one on the right... everything else on the table is brand new and shiny, but that looks rather used.

| Primus Pilus | Actually, it's based on HK416 and yes, it is practically jam free. They dip it in water, burry it in sand/mud, yet it just keeps on firing like fresh out of the box. Check out this vid: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gZpZryZEiY4 Source: http://www.hkpro.com/update.htm Quote:
