We have 2 main assault rifles: First one is the IA74 and the other is the IAHC.

Here is a factbook about both of them: https://www.nationstates.net/nation=imp ... id=1517846

The primary infantry rifle is the KPR, or Kalashnikov Pattern Rifle. The most common two are the KPR-7.62 and the KPR-5.45. Factbooks addressing this and other things are coming soon.

The BR-32 is a machine gun that was invented in Romextly and is manufactured by the Dragon Firepower Company, also based in Romextly. This is the main weapon for Cavirfi's soldiers, however, this could be replaced with the Remington ACR which by Cavirfite standards is considered weaker but more durable.

Yes you can yell MACHINE GUNS AREN'T ASSAULT RIFLES but come on, they literally have similar firerates, I will call any automatic gun that isn't a pistol, an assault rifle.

Currently, the Goldmanian Armed Forces uses 2 main assault rifles to arm its infantry units: the first is a modified version of the American M4 Carbine as seen above, designated as the "M4G" variant (with the G standing for Goldmanian). It is pretty much an exact replica of the parent assault rifle, but it is lighter, a little bit smaller, and was less sophisticated. It was specifically made as an alternative to buying the original rifle for it was accommodated to be made cheaper, easier to carry and for ease of handling. This version is more commonly seen in the Marine Corps and in the Special Warfare Teams, the spec ops group of the GAF.

Image

The second standard issue rifle for the common Goldmanian soldier is the locally manufactured BR-10, pictured here, and was made specifically for use in the regular Army and sometimes in the Navy since 1989. It is around the same size as the M4G, but was cheaper and much more easier to manufacture. It can also be customized to fit several attachments such as a silencer, a grenade launcher and a ACOG scope. It has many variants as well, with the most recent version being the BR-10 Mk V, introduced in 2014.

The Beretta AR70/90 has been the Royal Land Service's semi-automatic assault rifle since 2008 when it replaced the obsolete Beretta BM 59, which is nevertheless retained for ceremonial use by units guarding the Royal palaces.

We are finally standardizing our assault rifle with an order of our indigenous CAR-21 in 5.56mm NATO. That resembles the M4 with short stroke system. The initial order will include 25000 rifles.

This will solve the chaos derived of the Gònava war and it's hard consequences with years of economic constraints. Before that war our army was diminute (from 7500 to a peak of 175000) we had the FN FAL as prewar main rifle. We had to quickly expand and We were under arms embargo so We had to smuggle whatever We could FNCs, AR18s, FALs, Galils, T65s, AKMs, etc.
Also We captured so many AKMs that allow us to replace FALs with our first line troops.
After the war T65, Galil ACE and FNCs were amongst what We would say standard in our downsized forces along AKMs.

While most of Universalius's information to the outside world is well suppressed by our government officials, it's no mystery that our main assault rifle in use is the AK-74M. A good runner up though is the M4.

Current list of standart rifles of the UEH forces, including not only the assault ones as well other similar categories of rifles:

M16A4 (including variants capable of fully automatic fire), M16A3, M16A2 and M16A2 Enhanced, local names R-5M/R-5MA, and R-5A, R-5 and R-5E - standard use, main service rifle, of all the military. Also widely used by police and civilian agencies trough the country.
M4, local name R-10, and M4A1 series, local name R-10A - standard rifle of complementary use of all the military along the R-5s. Also widely in use by the Imperial Federal Police and by many police and civilian agencies trough the country.
K2C1 and K2, local names R-06M and R-06 - standard complementary use, widely in use by all the military and the police forces alike. Many acquired after the abandonment of the "R NG" project that almost standardized variants of the AUG rifles called "R-08" as the standard rifles of the Armed Forces, with the thousands of R-08s acquired being then sold on the private civilian market.
K2C, local name R-06C - complementary use by the military, wide use by the Imperial Federal Police.
CM901, local name R-24 - standard complementary use. Also in use by some police and civilian agencies trough the country. Operators generally are trained to use it as LSW and DMR in 7.62x51mm configuration but will switch to the 5.56x45mm one if ammunition is depleted so that they can receive more ammunition from their companions.
T91 (alike AR-15 platform variant), local name R-10ESA - standard use along the M16s and M4s, local name R-10, and M4A1 series, local name R-10A. Also in use by some police and civilian agencies trough the country.
AR-10A4, local name R-11M - standard DMR and semi-automatic battle rifle of the military. Also widely in use by the Imperial Federal Police and many police forces and civilian agencies trough the country.
K1A - standard complementary use, widely in use by all the military and the police forces alike. Standard use by crews of armored vehicles and aircraft together other options.
FAL (including a semi-automatic only specially modified DMR version), local models called R-01, and FAL Para, local models called R-01P - older standard service rifles, still use among some regular infantry units, with many also adapted to be used as DMRs.
FALO, local model called R-01S - still in standard use as LSW.
Galil ACE-N 22, local model called R-19S - former standard carbine of the Marine Corps, now used only by the Marines Corps Special Deployment Units. Limited use by the Land Army and by the Air Defense and Space Force. Also widely in use by police forces and civilian agencies trough the country.
Galil ACE-N 23, local model called R-19LS - former standard rifle of the Marine Corps, now used only by the Marines Corps Special Deployment Units, also used as LSW. Limited use by the Land Army and by the Air Defense and Space Force. Also widely in use by police forces and civilian agencies trough the country.
Galil ACE-N 52, local model called R-20 - former standard rifle of the Marine Corps, now used only by the Marines Corps Special Deployment Units. Limited use by police forces and civilian agencies trough the country.
Arad, local model called R-21 - moderate quantity acquired, used mostly by special operations forces but also many by the regular troops as well.
Tavor TAR-21, local model called R-14 - used by many special operations groups. Also widely in use by police forces and civilian agencies trough the country.
MTAR-21/X95, local name R-22 - used by many special operations groups. Also widely in use by police forces and civilian agencies trough the country.
Tavor 7, local name R-23 - used by many special operations groups. Also widely in use by police forces and civilian agencies trough the country.
Carmel (not in wide use, thus with no local designation) - some acquired, used by some special operations forces in limited numbers.
AR-18 (not in wide use, thus with no local designation) - in reserve, rarely used. Most likely reserved to be used as foreign aid.
M1 Garand - used for ceremonial and sports purposes.
M1 carbine (not in wide use, thus with no local designation) - used for ceremonial and for sports purposes, as well for training.
M1903A3 Springfield, M1903A1 Springfield and M1903 Springfield - used for ceremonial and for sports purposes.
M95 (M1895) - (not in wide use, thus with no local designation) - used for cermonial purposes and rarely for anything else.

This happens because each military organization has a certain amount of autonomy to acquire its own weapons and ammunition together the standard ones, as long as it obeys certain standards and rules, so that there is a certain great diversity of models of weapons in use. This would be a logisitical nightmare, but it isn't due to the countries being a huge manufacturer of firearms and ammunition, to both military and police forces as well the civilian market, allowing to relatively cheap acquisitions, and with such autonomy creating a situation of constant competition between the companies to sell their arms.

Our standard rifle is the HK-33, basically a G3 in 5,56 × 45 mm. It of course employs the same roller-delayed blowback system the G3 does and was built since the late 1970s under a license agreement by our own arsenals.

Qafaria's main assault rifle is the Kalashnikov AK-74. Many AK-47s, AKMs and Type 56s are also used.

The Presidential Guard and Republican Guard also use the AK-12, as well as illegally acquired rifles such as the FAMAS, M-16 and G36.

Volunteer Defence Companies, civilian volunteer organisations, use surplus AK-47s and older bolt-action rifles.
