bantudra: It's a known fact where? Who tested it. The main reason why Nigerian soldiers use AK and also Islamic Terrorist is that it's quite cheap compared to its counterpart. An AR is preferable to AK anyday 3 Likes 1 Share |

FarahAideed: I quite disagree with ur assessment on AK47 been the best out there, if u say its an all weather and terrain gun, i agree with u but when it comes to accuracy, the M4 carbine is the best. 2 Likes 1 Share |

Blacknight28: The AK-47 is not the most suitable rifle for CQB. As a matter of fact, I'll give that to the CTAR-21 presently used by DSS and the Nigerian Navy SBS. Anyway I think rifles suitable for CQB (CTAR-21, Beryl Carbine) should be left to Special Forces (SBS, AFSF, NAF's QRF, and Police's ATS/CTU) as they more involved in operations in compact spaces (e.g. Hostage Rescue). The present Beryl rifles used by our Special Ops operators should be transferred to the infantry solders. But thats my opinion. 5 Likes 1 Share |

FarahAideed: Correction: the M-16 was NEVER influenced by the AK-47. The Galil, R4, Valmet were, but NOT the M-16. And yes the German STG-44 did have an influence in the AK-47's design. 5 Likes 1 Share |

my opinion is,if we cant produce whatever rifle we need then better settle with the ak and build more armoured vehicles... you people should always keep the cost in mind when wishing stuff....nigeria is not that rich to be buyin everything from abroad.... blaimy,this politicians are still argueing over minimum wage for crying out loud....!! 2 Likes 1 Share |

bantudra: There's absolutely nothing wrong with going for upgrades, and I wholely support that. That's why I'm pushing for the adoption of the Polish Beryl, or at least replace the design and materials while maintaining the basic framework of the present OBJ-006 rifle. 2 Likes 1 Share |

ocelot2006:Nigeria Military are far behind in term of weaponry and underfunded. Everybody is busy arguing about about which primary gun better, forgetting about the side arms or kit which the military needs with the present security situation. 2 Likes 1 Share |

Blacknight28: Nah, we don't need the M4. The stopping power of the M4's 5.56 cartridge is nothing compared to the 7.62 used in the Beryl. Besides making the transition from the AK-47/OBJ-006 to the Beryl will be far easier as they're all based on the AK-47, thus common features available. Finally we won't be susceptible to US arms embargoes if they decide to go crazy. 6 Likes 1 Share |

Why can't we design ours instead of waiting for the US? You are right we should not be dependent on any country if not we will always get the short end of the stick. bantudra: 1 Like 1 Share |

Re: Why Do DSS Carry Sophisticated Weapons Than Our Soldiers by ocelot2006(m): 6:04pm On Dec 05, 2018 |
tutudesz: ABSOLUTELY TRUE. Come to think of it, how come our troops aren't issued secondary weapons (pistols)? Besides I noticed that the Army still uses the old Browning Hi-power pistols. The Police is even worse with Chinese copies of the Russian Makarov plus Norinco pistols, although there are some Beretta M9s. As far as I'm concerned the Navy's SBS along with DSS are far better equipped with the later using IWI Jericho 941s. 3 Likes |

Blacknight28: True, the M4 is accurate. Buy so is the Beryl, or Archer as the Americans call it. The Beryl is considered the FINEST copy of the AK-47 copy, and its stock design addresses the accuracy issue that has always plagued the AK-47. 2 Likes |

ocelot2006: Saying the AK47 never inspired the M16 is like saying the Soyuz never inspired Saturn 5 rockets ... I am not saying it inspired the looks of the M16 but it inspired the whole drive behind the creation of the M16 after seeming failures of the M14 when compared against the AK47 |
