CR40A2/HAV
Caliber: 8.56x45
Weight: 6.8 pounds
Barrel Length: 31.6 inches
Magazine capacity: 75 rounds (Drum Mag), 32 (normal mag)
Fire Rate: 720 RPM
Sighting range: 700 yards
Range of effective fire: 735 yards
Description of weapon and intended use: The CR40A2/HAV (Heavy Assault Version) is intended to be a light support weapon to be used by paratroopers, marines, and other special forces. It differs from it's father rifle in the fact that it weights a bit more due to the heavier barrel, and in that it's barrel can be quickly changed in combat situations in the extremely unlikely event that the weapon were to jam. It also has an integrated bipod for easier control when firing from cover or when prone on the ground. Not only can this weapon act as a LMG, it can also be turned into a marksman rifle for when you need some precision to take down a target. These features make this rifle even more adaptable than the mainline CR40 weapons, so when you need a precision rifle and an LMG in one package, the CR40A2/HAV has your back.

the money will be transferred immediately. We have tested the first samples of the weapon and it performs as advertised. It will be added to the inventory of our Special Forces right away. When tested we confirmed an idea one of our specialists suggested by adding the quick change barrel attachment the weapon can be quickly modified to meet changing situations allowing a soldier to swap out a more accurate long barrel or more compact assault barrel to the weapon. Equipping a Special Forces operator with the rifle and additional barrels optics allows them to rapidly alter their weapons allowing the weapon to be far more flexible than we anticipated.

perhaps you should consider that as an advertising point...

The MKAR or Modular Kalishnikov Assault Rifle is a modernized rifle variant of the famous AK-47. It was introduced in 2010 and was shipped to Ukraine to replace their older rifles during their war with Russia. Waffle Armaments made changes to the AK platforms by replacing the 7.62x39mm cartridge with the new 7.62x51mm ISA. The rifle is also equipped with a longer barrel, the body length was increased and the weight was slightly increased. The rifle has an adjustable stock with 7 different positions of length and it's also able to be folded for easier storage. The rifle is also able to mount optics and attachments much easier than the AK platforms with a large amount of rail space. Even though this AK hybrid is a newer gun, it still has the loving characteristic of the Ak-47 of being a reliable gun that just works no matter what.

LAC PS Rapier
Caliber: .38 or .35 caliber (9x20/9x19 millimeter)
Weight: 2.17155 pounds (985 grams)
Barrel Length: 3.58268 inches (91 millimeters)
Magazine capacity: 8 (classic compact), 12 (compact) 15 (standard), 18, (extended military/police)
Fire Rate: Semi-automatic/420 rounds per minute (fully-automatic modified)
Range of effective fire: >80 yards
Description of weapon and intended use:
The LAC PS "Rapier", chambered for the Old World 9x19mm Parabellum round and its Exodian higher-power equivalent, .380 Leveller, is a compact semi-automatic pistol, with a standard magazine capacity of 15.
Based off of the Old World Walther PPK design, it's known for its simple assembly and decent stopping power. Both reliability and concealability are also its known attributes, despite being 1.5x larger, and has an odd feature of being able to change the mechanism between blowback or recoil operation. While both work with any cartridge, the former is meant for .380 Leveller, while the latter for 9x19mm Parabellum and 9x21 IMI.
It has a faster cyclic rate than the PP, owing this to higher-pressure standard cartridges and a lighter slide. This has led to some countries modifying the pistols to have a fully-automatic option, creating a small machine pistol with a more moderate rate of fire, although this is not recommended as it puts more strain on the action. Nevertheless, fully-automatic versions are manufactured by LAC, but slightly more expensive.
Attempts to make the weapon more tactical-friendly have resulted in a version with tritium-illuminated iron sights and a concealed laser sight in the grip (can be removed on civilian versions). The latter was created in the effort to maintain its concealability while still offering a laser sight-compatible weapon, as the PS is too small for an accessory rail.
Though we make our own barrel accessories for the PS, it can accept most aftermarket barrel accessories meant for 9-millimeter firearms.

Magazine capacity: 20, 30, or 40 round magazines
Fire Rate: 820 RPM
Sighting range: 235 yards
Range of effective fire: 240 yards
Description of weapon and intended use: An extremely light and compact SMG, the CS2-A1 is designed with covert missions solely in mind. It is perfect for hiding in your coat, your bag, or your suitcase when you need to carry this weapon discretely. To add even more stealth to the weapon,
it comes with an integrated silencer, which can be swapped out when the silencer gets worn out. It fires the 4.6x30mm round, which can penetrate most types of light-medium body armor and is yet light enough that you can carry a number of these bullets around. Of course, like all weapons manufactured by Ishkalla, this gun can be easily modified, cleaned, and serviced in order to prevent damage and jamming. When you want a weapon to go in quietly, this little beauty is the answer.

The Astronean Armed Forces (ARF) weapons technologies acquisitions and development board is holding a new weapons trial in search of a new-generation man-portable precision anti-material rifle to replace its bolt action LMK-9 rifle. It has been decided to open up the competition to the International Firearms Market for multinational entries. The LMK-9 while potent and able to penetrate many materials, lacks in overall range, accuracy and maneuverable firepower. Its replacement will be used to defeat light armoured vehicles, targets behind cover and for demolition purposes.

The trial will consist of an accuracy test, durability and stress test, in which each competing weapon will be fired for a total of one hundred (100) rounds in various environmental conditions. Competing systems will be graded on reliability, ergonomics (weight, handling etc), accuracy, penetration, reliability and cost. The winner, when decided, will be announced and, following a pricing review, a contract for the winning weapon will be placed to be purchased for AAF inventory, with options for future acquisitions. The required specifications for the weapon are as follows:

-Sub-MOA accuracy using match-grade ammunition
-Semi-automatic rate of fire
-A weight of 10 kilograms (22 lbs) or under
-A range of 1000m+
-Detachable box-magazine of at least 5 round capacity
-Full-length piccatiny rail for mounting of various optics
-RIS mounting options for illumination devices (e.g IR laser)
-Detachable or integral bipod
-Ability to be suppressed
-A minimum muzzle velocity of 600 m/s+
-Fire a caliber able to perforate sheet metal 22.2 mm of face-hardened armor steel plate at 100 metres, and 19 mm at 500 metres, defeat level IV ballistic armour and penetrate concrete.

All submissions must be made by no later than the 30th of November, 2017. The winner will be decided after all submissions have been evaluated, with three final competitors being graded against one another in each tested category. We wish all entrants the best of luck.

The AMW 280 is the standard assault rifle of the armed forces. It was designed as a direct response to growing needs for an intermediate cartridge capable of providing comparable bullet velocity to large caliber rounds, with the recoil and compact size of a smaller cartridge. The AMW boasts ballistics comparable to a .308 caliber battle rifle and the control and compact size of a 5.56mm carbine. This allows the rifle to outperform other contemporary rifles in terms of range, bullet velocity and stopping power, without compromising weight, magazine capacity or maneuverability. The AMW is a modular rifle, with lightweight parts and the ability to fulfill a wide variety of roles. It can be fitted with a variety of optical sights and illumination devices, as well as underslung weapons such as grenade launchers.

History:

Since 1964, the primary service rifle of the Astronean Armed Forces has been the AM-64, a highly reliable model weapon firing the formidable 7.62x39mm round, with options for downscaled calibers and a later modularization to the 7.62x51mm round with the introduction of the A1A1 TSK three years later. Together, these two weapons served Astronea's needs in many theaters across the globe. Renowned for their reliability, firepower and general accuracy, the TSK and AM-64 became iconic in the images of the most distinguished infantry units of Astronea's ground forces, the Astronean Rifles, among other veteran units.
Various modernization programs over the years have brought the rifles up to standard with developing small arms technologies, most notably the OSW and the AM-95, with integrated rail systems, improved firing mechanisms, polymer parts and erganomic improvements.

However, as the AAF moved forward into 2016, the annual defence review called for a possible replacement for the two rifles, a single modular design that would eliminate the need for both rifles and multiple calibers.

"Requirements: RIS, lightweighting, a carbine, LSW and DMR variant, a short stroke piston action and collapsable stock, cold forged steel and polymer, free floating barrel."

In addition to these demands, the Ministry of Defence approved the development of a new intermediate cartridge, an updated design left from the 1970s, which had ballistics comparable to the most powerful rifle rounds of that time, notable the .308 and 30-06. The result was the 6.25x45mm .280 round. The new ammunition swept the floor with other intermediate cartridges such as the 5.56x45mm in terms of range, ballistics and energy, while providing less than half the recoil of the 7.62x51mm round currently being fielded at a similar muzzle velocity.

.280 ACC Ballistics:

Types of bullets and colours of tips:
AP (130 gr or 8.4 g)
API (130 gr or 8.4 g): black
Ball (130–140 gr or 8.4–9.1 g): plain (unmarked), green, pink, yellow, brown
Observation (130 gr or 8.4 g) (6 gr or 0.39 g WP): red
Tracer (130 gr or 8.4 g): white


As shown by the data, the .280 ACC cartridge offers comparable penetration, muzzle velocity, range and accuracy to that of its higher caliber competitors, while giving much less felt recoil per shot, allowing for better sustained and automatic fire, as well as shooter comfort.

Variants:

AMW-280C
Caliber: .280 ACC
Cost: $1,160 NSD

AMW-280 DMR
Caliber: .280 ACC
Cost: $1,300 NSD

AMW-280 LSW
Caliber: .280 ACC
Cost: $1,960 NSD

In conclusion, the AMW-280 is the modular weapon for the modern fighting force, able to be adapted to any role for any service. In the Altmoras New MIllenium Rifle Initiative the AMW-280 was found to have both the highest stopping power and accuracy of any other competing rifle, becoming a finalist of four rifles in the competition. Selecting this weapon system as your next-generation service rifle will give the Krimson Guard the edge over its adversaries in infantry weapons.

Based on the successful AM-64 (an AK variant rifle), the AM-96 served as the primary service rifle of Astronean forces for the last 10 years, most notably the prestigious Astronean Rifles and Saighead Regiment. The AM-96 ISW (Improved Service Weapon) is a direct upgrade to bring the rifle up to modern standards.

The initial AM-96 model features many external and internal upgrades, including a new folding stock, improved iron sights, angled charging handle, more liberal use of polymer, improved fire selector and a more effective flash hider. However since the early 2000s, Talamnrath Precision Systems has been working on an upgrade to improve integration of optics and electronics onto the weapon.

Previously, an external rail was added to provide options for mounting sights and other peripherals. Their newest upgrade, the Improved Service Weapon (ISW), features a fully integral RIS, more modern stock, options for underslung attachments, new pistol grip and trigger mechanism. This all round modernisation was a welcome addition to the Astronean Armed Forces as it allowed soldiers to use a familiar weapon platform in a modern configuration, using magnified sights and IR laser sights in main forces.

The AM-96 has been replaced by the newer AMW-280, however large quantities remain in Astronean inventory and Talamnrath continues to manufacture the rifle for export. Like its predecessor, the AM-96 is able to be chambered in numerous 5.56/45 and 7.62 calibers. However, another revolutionary upgrade of the rifle is its ability to change calibers by swapping out barrels, a technology also implemented on the TPS-30 marksman rifle.

Design:

Beginning with a licensed version of the AK-47 receiver, the AM-64 is an upgrade of the rifle at every point. Tolerances are tighter than the AK designs while still being generous enough to assure reliability in all climates. The gas piston included small “fingers” near the piston to ensure smoother functioning inside the gas tube, which helped to increase the inherent accuracy of the rifle. Another move toward increased accuracy was the upgraded sights.

The front sight is mounted on the gas block which makes for one less attachment to the barrel, adding to the mechanical accuracy. The front sight is fully adjustable in the field by the soldier. There is also a flip up tritium night sight that covers the front post for low light shooting.

The rear sight is an aperture on a sliding tangent affair adjustable to 600 meters and a “battle sight” setting of 150 meters. The rear sight is located toward the rear of the top cover. The rear sight also has tritium inserts for night shooting by flipping the sight all the way forward (upside down). Once in this position, there is a square notch arrangement with two tritium dots on either side. In this position, the rear sight is adjustable for elevation via a set screw under the sight arm.

Another feature of the AM-64 series rifles is the flash suppressor. It resembles an enlarged version of the suppressor on the original M16. Directly under the flash suppressor is a bayonet lug to accommodate the knife-style bayonet. The flash suppressor has some sharp edges along its longitudinal cuts for wire cutting. A soldier slides the barbed wire into the flash suppressor and simply rotates his rifle around until it snaps the small gauge wire. For thicker wire, the soldier inserts the wire, gives a half turn and fires the rifle, which will snap the wire. On the M16 the prong type flash suppressor was abandoned for the bird cage type because the prongs tended to snag on vegetation in the field. While this is still a problem with the AM-64, the sharper edges help to cut through some of the vegetation.

There are both solid and folding stock versions. Folding stock designs may become troublesome in that eventually they tend to become loose. This is not a problem with the AM-64 series of rifles as the hinge and lock design are very robust. Both feature a trap door in the butt to store a cleaning kit. So as not to freeze a soldier’s face in freezing temperatures, there is a thin plastic sleeve over the tube section of the stock that typically contacts the shooter's face.

The AM-96 ISW is an update on a time-proven design, and is an extremely cost-effective way of upgrading your individual soldier fighting capability. Matching older designs with modern innovations is never easy and rarely cheap, but the ISW proves that you can have the best of both worlds. The AM-96 is extremely easy to use, being based on one of the most popular rifles in history. It will not jam. It can be disassembled and reassembled in a matter of seconds. And with the ISW iteration, it is lighter and more erganomic than ever, with the ability to change calibers with the switch of a barrel, mounting any optic on its picatinny rail. And all at a $650 price-tag.

The standard issue service rifle of the Altsean military, the MAR-12 has the distinction of being the only ACC Defence Division rifle designed specifically to order for a foreign power. The MAR-12 operates with the same principle mechanism as the IM-96/64 series of rifles but using a modernized design and materials to increase its accuracy and lower its weight, while maintaining the IM's ease of maintenance and reliability under battle conditions all the while improving on ergonomics.

TPS redesigned the action to integrate the steel with polymer, which is much lighter than the fully steel receiver of the original IM rifles. While the upper receiver is machined steel and the receiver top features a Picatinny rail, polymer has been introduced to the lower receiver of the weapon to reduce the gun's weight. This has led to a very lightweight, compact and reliable rifle with modern furniture and ergonomics. A departure from the IM rifles' "rock-in" style of magazine catch, the MAR-12 uses a last round bolt catch and a single-press drop out magazine release, in which the bolt will hold open after the last round has been fired, until such a time as the bolt catch is released. This significantly reduces reloading times during combat. The Jaghond uses flip up iron sights and a collapsible stock.

By all standards the MAR-12 is a very modern rifle, with a very controllable rate of fire, solid accuracy, formidable reliability and modularity. The MAR-12 has been several variants, including a 7.62x51mm marskman rifle configuration and a light automatic support rifle.

Variants:

MAR-12SW Support Weapon
Caliber: 5.56x45 mm
Cost: $960 NSD

MAR-12MR Marksman Rifle
Caliber: 7.62x51mm
Cost: $990 NSD

The MAR-12 represents the pinnacle of rugged reliability in a modern and modular package. With several variants and two different calibers to choose from, the Jaghond is built to withstand even the most harsh environments. Improving on an already proven design, the MAR-12 is proof that reliability, function, accuracy and modularity can all be included in one rifle without compromise. If looking kit out your troops with an accurate and durable 5.56mm rifle at an affordable price, accept no substitutes.

A Message to any interested contractors from the Krimzon Guard:
The KG has decided to replace it's aging Aizen Assault Rifles, which were intended to replace the AK styled Jinchu Assault Rifle(JAR). However, the Aizen Assault Rifle has never been a remarkable weapon by any means. Therefor we extend an offer to all interested parties to send us your best assault rifle designs for consideration. We will completely cover all costs incurred by participants. We will not make any commitments as far as adopting any of these rifles go, however, if we do find something we like, we will allow your nation to produce all of our replacement rifles despite possessing a large arms manufacturing industry of our own. Considering the size of our military this would be an incredibly prosperous deal in both the short and long term.

In order for Research and Development cost, as well as shipping and other expenses to be covered, please list all incurred expenses in your message so that we may send an appropriate amount in return. Thank you and good luck!

Hello there, Krimzon Guard,

We here at Ishkalla Firearms may have the rifles you are looking for. They fire a larger-than-normal cartridge, can be heavily modified for any job easily, and can match the AK-47 in sheer toughness and reliability. Said rifles are below this message, and we hope you consider our offer and accept these rifles into your inventory.

CR40A2 Assault Rifle
Caliber: 8.56x45
Weight: 5.7 pounds
Barrel Length: 30.7 inches
Magazine capacity: 32 rounds
Fire Rate: 720 RPM
Sighting range: 720 yards
Range of effective fire: 735
Price: 1,275 NSD per rifle
Description of weapon and intended use: An upgrade of the earlier CR40, the CR40A2 fixes several problems that were apparent in the older model. First off, it has an improved recoil control spring to reduce the recoil. Secondly, it has improved gas tubes, making the flow of gas throughout the weapon much smoother. It also means that the range of the weapon is slightly better than that of it's predecessor. Finally, it is 0.2 pounds lighter than it's older brother due to the use of improved materials. If you loved the CR40A1, you will love this rifle. It operates smoother overall than the A1, and has less recoil too. Of course, it also features the ruggedness of the A1, so you will not have to really worry about this weapon jamming on you.


CR53A1 Heavy Assault Rifle
Caliber: 50. cal Beowulf
Weight: 6.6 pounds
Length: 29.7 inches
Magazine capacity: 30 rounds
Fire rate: 650 RPM
Sighting range: 700 yards
Range of effective range: 650 yards
Price: 1,500 NSD per rifle
Description of weapon and intended use: The CR53 was built as a heavier, harder hitting variant of it's little brother, the CR40. It, like the CR40 is meant for frontline combat, specifically for killing things that the 8.56x45 of the CR40 can't. It is slightly heavier due to the round it fires, however the stopping power of it's 50. cal Beowulf rifle is substantially more powerful than that of the 8.56x45, and the trade off in weight for firepower has been deemed acceptable by both the Sleetavian Army and Marine Corps. It is now being produced not just for the Sleetavian armed forces, but also for arms markets and nations who need that little extra bit of firepower in their arsenal. It also has the same ruggedness as the CR40, being able to operate in conditions that would jam other rifles. Sand, snow, dirt; Doesn't matter to this rifle.

We find these prices to be acceptable and would like all weapons in question to be shipped to the Ishi Testing Grounds, where they will then be distributed. We have not yet decided WHICH divisions will be outfitted with this weapon. Thank you for your participation!
