MASTECH Corporation MA-52 SR

History: In the early 2000s, the Conceptine military adopted the H&K G-36kv & c as stop gap solutions to fulfill an Urgent Operational Requirement (UOR) to supplement the aging standard-issue Daewoo K-2 rifle series for troops deployed in support of Operation Enduring Freedom in Afghanistan, as well as counter-terrorism and high-risk counter-narcotics missions along the Conceptine Border with Brazil. After a contract for local Conceptine-licensed G-36 production from H&K became delayed due to legal matters in 2013, the Conceptine military put out a request for the adoption of an entirely new weapon system. In late 2016, having already been tested by Conceptine special units for 2 years, the domestically-designed MASTECH Corporation Ma-52 was selected over the FN SCAR-L, SIG-SAUER 516, IWI Galil Ace & Beretta ARX-160, as Conceptina's new standard rifle.

Statistics:
Mass: 6.8 lbs (unloaded, rifle w/14.5 inch barrel)
Barrel length: 14.5 inches (rifle), 10 inches (carbine)
Calibre: 5.56x45mm NATO (standard), 6.5 Grendel (Special Units, Border Action Force)
Action: Long-stroke gas operated, rotating bolt
Rate of Fire: 650 rounds per minute
Feed System: STANAG 30 round detachable box magazine (5.56), 26 round detachable box magazine (6.5 Grendel)

The main service weapon for the Federal States Armed Forces is the M16A2. Despite its age, it is quite reliable. We do, however, recognize that it is no longer suitable to the modern battlefield. It is being phased out in favor of the M16A4 and M4A1, but will remain in service for “C” reserve units as an emergency issue weapon.

The primary service rifle for the Chernarusian Federal Armed Forces is the Avtomát Kaláshnykova Örnakt'sa R'oda 2005, shortened to the AK-ÖR05, a modernized variant of the AKM that was developed in response to government arms (primarily Soviet arms bought by the Chernarusian Federative Soviet Republic) being raided during the Chernarusian Civil War by the Democratic Forces of Chernarus and desperate civilians: as part of tactical doctrines emphasizing heavier ammunition (along with preventing potential deserters from using Russian arms and ammunition), the AK-ÖR05 is chambered in 7.62x39mm and has a distinctive magazine based off the vz. 58 that prevents the AK-ÖR05 from using other Kalashnikov-pattern rifle magazines like that of the AKM or AK-103.

As part of standardization, the AK-ÖR05 also has a number of offshoots: the AKS-06U is a carbine variant of the main rifle, while the AKS-07 is unique as it is chambered in 5.45x39mm - as such, the AKS-07, alongside the AKS-05 (a folding-stock variant of the main rifle also chambered for 5.45), are issued only to special operations units for combat, as well as a limitation against them should they attempt to perform a coup and are pushed to holding positions against Federal Army units. Additionally, the Syreneva Sternets'ka Systema Vyntov'ka R'oda 1995 (SSSV-R95) is a designated marksman rifle variant based off the AK-ÖR05 and PSL (the peculiarity of its number designation comes from the SSSV having been originally developed in 1995 off the same blueprints as the AK-ÖR05, but prototypes were only developed and deployed to elite government units: after the Civil War, it was decided to instead simply modernize the SSSV to match the AK-ÖR05 and consider it as the original weapon).

Finally, the AK-ÖR05 also helped spawn the R'ochni Kuneli Kaláshnykova Örnakt'sa R'oda 2005, shortened to the (RKK-ÖR05), a light machine gun that replaced existing stocks of the RPD, RPK, RPK-74, and PK. Much like the AK-ÖR05, the RKK-ÖR05 is chambered primarily in 7.62x39mm, though the R'ochni Kuneli Kaláshnykova Örnakt'sa 5.45 (RKK-Ö545) was eventually developed for special operations units to reduce weight and standardize their equipment.

A peculiarity that should be noted with all rifles excluding the SSSV-R95 are their magazines: the AK-ÖR05, AKS-06U, and RKK-ÖR05 all use interchangeable magazines, with the first two primarily using 30-round curved magazines and the latter 45-round casket magazines or a 96-round drum magazine. In contrast, the AKS-05, AKS-07, and the RKK-Ö545 use 30 and 40-round curved magazines, a 45-round casket magazine, and a 75-round drum magazine: much like the 7.62 variants, the 5.45 magazine variants are all interchangeable. As can be seen in the images linked, the Chernarusian AK platform possesses rail systems and Magpul furniture to allow soldiers to customize their weapons: this, plus its unique parts and reliable performance, has given the AK a beloved reputation among the Federal Armed Forces - in contrast, the AK-ÖR05 is viewed rather negatively in the international arms industry for its associations in brutal government crackdowns and conflicts such as the East Prigorodny War, the 2007 Wars in the Georgian Federal Constituent Republic, the reprisals against the 2014 pro-democracy protests, and the 2020 Chernarusian civil conflict.

The weapon feeds from 30 round magazines, and is compatible with most attachments.

Along with this, the citizen guard, a volunteer militia, uses older outdated rifles like the semi-automatic INSAS rifle and the even older bolt action Ichhapur rifle.

Since 1999, the Toinan Armed Services has used the M4 Carbine rifle as its primary service weapon. Most soldiers also carry a Beretta M9 as a service pistol. Officers of the National Police Service and Army Military Police Corps regularly the Smith & Wesson M&P pistol, but do not carry shotguns or assault rifles on a regular basis.

It replaced the Armalite Ar-10 that had seen decades of service in 2008, as under the National Rearmament Act that sought for more modern weapons for the military. It became widely known as the weapon employed specifically by the SWT Teams, the most elite unit in the military, and some elements of the Goldmanian Marine Corps.

The plas-machine gun mk.3 is used by both high ranking DOCS in the police force and as a standard issue military weapon. No physical ammunition is fired, only plasma. There are no magazines, the gun is cooled by an internal CO2 system that prevents internal overheating. Plasma can melt through some of the hardest materials, unlike traditional street weapons, making it great for combat against anything wearing armor or using a shield. The design is lightweight and comfortable to hold.

The main service-rifle of the Cassadian Royal Armed Forces has been the G3 family of battle rifles, having been adopted in exploitation with all the branches of the Cassadian military since the introduction of the rifle in 1959, with the latest most widely produced variant the G3A4 being adopted by the Royal Land Forces in 1976, relegating the earlier G3 variants to rear-guard, logistics, reservists and law-enforcement agencies and the Militsiya.
