PRS Soldiers of the SPAS are given multiple weopans, With the main rifle being an M-16, fitted with a grenade launcher. Backup weopans incase the soldiers loses his M-16 during battle are two Glock pistols and if he loses them too, five grenades and a combat knife. I know this was for the main rifle, But I just wanted to add on anyways.

We use the MCR-10 (Modular Combat Rifle) as standard issue to Army, Marines and some Air Force troops, the modular nature allows for easy attachment and replacement of parts to fill a multitude of roles from standard infantry rifle, to a light MG, a Marksman rifle, or a CQB Carbine rifle for urban operations or vehicle crews.

Seems like this'd be better suited to the IDT. . .

Aartsengel Wapenfabriek MKb. 21
he MKb.21 is a compact, lightweight carbine based off of the larger MKb.31 service rifle. It was initially designed in mid 60s to provide suitable armament for soldiers unable to carry a rifle, but requiring more than a machine pistol for self defense. In recent years, the MKb.21 has seen a sharp increase in popularity, as it's light weight, ease of handling and tremendous stopping power have made it an ideal weapon for combat in urban environments.

At the time, the MKb.21 was a fairly revolutionary weapon. It was one of the first attempts at combining a rifle's powerful cartridge with an SMG's compact frame. It also made heavy use of polymers in it's construction, a trait largely unseen in rifles of the era. This allowed for a weapon that was lightweight and easy to carry, yet maintained an assault rifle's range and power.

As with the MKb.31, the '21 is a select fire, roller locked short-stroke gas operated rifle firing the powerful 7,92mm Kurz cartridge. It is astoundingly compact, at only 474mm with stock folded, and a mere 710mm with stock extended. Despite this, it maintains a long, for it's class, barrel of 260mm.

Ours is the M95Z Assault Rifle, standard issue for both police and military.

It's appearance is extremely similar to the MTAR.

Our troops use the M4 carbine when in combat. The fire arm is not only light, but it has low recoil, a high rate of fire, and is overall very reliable. Even when submerged in mud the firearm performs at peak performance. As well as with sand and water.

Small assault type? Don't you mean bullpup?


Image
The Type 72 is an assault rifle made in Zhouran.

The weapon entered service in mid 1972 AE. It is the main assault rifle of the Zhouranese People's Army. It is manufactured by Jinguang Defense.

The Type 72 is an air-cooled, gas-operated, magazine fed weapon designed for automatic fire. The weapon has an attached electronic scope. The rifle performs well in a variety of environments especially given the perceived delicacy of the attached electronic scope. The Type 72 is easily one of the most versatile weapons in the ZPA’s arsenal. The Type 72 has a heavy barrel with a 1 in 7 twist. The magazine capacity is 30 rounds.

The rifle is gas-operated with a rotating-bolt and therefore must be cocked before the first shot can be fired. The charging handle used to chamber the round is situated on the left side of the rifle. The magazine release button is located above the magazine housing. The Type 72 is a bullpup rifle with the magazine placed behind the trigger of the rifle. The Type 72 is designed for the toughest of situations, able to be subjected to elements that would otherwise jam and render a weapon inoperable.

The Type 72 assault rifle uses M192 5.56×45mm Armor Piercing, Caseless Rounds. These rounds are designed to pierce body armor so the rounds are reasonably powerful, and are surrounded by a molded jacket of titanium, which enhances its armor-piercing capabilities. The round also has carbide, and is coated in copper.

Cartridge: M192 5.56×45mm armor-piercing, caseless rounds
Action: Air-cooled, gas-operated
Rate of fire: 650 rounds per minute
Muzzle velocity: 885 m/s
Effective range: 800 m
Feed system: 30 round magazine

Currently the AK-74M is being used in all branches of the military as the main service rifle of Bazrasha with the AK-105 being pushed into limited service as a smaller option for the AK-74M and is mainly used by united stationed in Urban environments or in environments that would requir a shorter full powered assault rifle.

Because of the many arms manufacturers in the realm and the regiments are organized by the states and therefore will use locally made guns.
