@zhinaslayer3000 @teppoblog I'm 100% sure it's MFMD-6ARC-3.6 one, because one from insta post is longer 2.1 and shorter 4.1 (they don't have pictures of 3.6 on the website)
Oh, and look, it's semi auto ICAR's barrel length :)

@teppoblog @MRV0R0N If the suppressor is the MFMD-6MM-2.1, which I believe it is. The barrel would be in the ballpark of 16", I think.

@zhinaslayer3000 @teppoblog Yeah, he also says it semi only by the end. I hope it's for 18in variant only, because calling semi auto platform "assault rifle" is kinda stupid. Maybe a 14.5in variant that insta post mentions is full auto and barrel is same length as handguard
English
@MRV0R0N @teppoblog The 5.56 version surely does have it as seen in the screenshot.
As for the 6mm version here a video of guy fiddle around the selector during SS25, did not have a full auto mode. youtu.be/npG1zAVJ-Dg

@teppoblog No one's memory is perfect
Still, question of "were are those 14.5in dude speaks on insta", cuz that's clearly +-18in
Also, on a side note, does ICAR have full-auto capability, or is it semi only like GFR?
English
@teppoblog Wait, ICAR IS 14.5in? From photos that I could find its more like 18in, like GFR

@MRV0R0N The Tiger has a Larue Tranquillo on a custom machined front site block. The FEYG has a Ti762 using their kinda janky 5/8x24 sleeve

Tiger and TigIR in the rain. While the TigIR brand new was completely overpriced, it's still a bad ass clip on and still one of my favorites. Too expensive at 13k, but they are a good value used at 5 or 6k IMO.

@rosenritter1958 Did you bought a book or there is pdf version somewhere?

ASh-12 internals
The 12.7x55mm gun is short recoil operated and the patent references Barrett. Thus, the suppressor mounts over the moving barrel, not onto the barrel (similar to a TP9/MP9).
Picture is from Katarzhnov's Tula encyclopedia
Rosenritter@rosenritter1958
Angelina Matlashova (maiden name Shedlos), a departmental head at Tula TsKIB SOO, was the quote "grandmother" of the ShAK/ASh-12. She worked alongside Vladimir Zlobin (of early AK-12 fame) and S.E. Kazakov on the rifle, adapting it from Zlobin's straight-pull VSSK (in picture)

@rosenritter1958 Yeah, it bothered me from the first time a saw it in Panda's TG channel
English
@MRV0R0N That's actually a good spot, all the ru sources for the images kept calling it VAL so I didn't even look past the repurposed VAL grip

AUSA2025 - COLT IAR762
I didn't ask any questions about this one nor ever seen it before. It's pretty much the IAR beefed up, bringing the heatsink concept to 7.62x51 on their CM762 style lower. Apologies for the poor wide-angle shot.
English
@rosenritter1958 @safarpub That's cool, thanks. I gonna assume different barrel lengths is some thing shorter for CQ and something longer for stationary variants
English
Sidequest accepted. Tell me if you want anything checked out
English
@justgunsx Yeah, that's what I thought. Still wondering how and why to different devs made a same design decision about RPL reload
English
@MRV0R0N The RPL isn't much different from any other machine gun in regards of its reloading procedure
It's just that the dust cover is not on the top of the machine gun but rather it is on the bottom, connected to the pistol grip
i.e. You still have to manipulate the belt with the RPL
English
Unlike what is the case with the absolute majority of belt fed machine guns, in case of the OTs-142, the reload is as easy as if it was a mag fed!
Detach the ammo box with the empty belt retained inside of it, rock in a new one, pull the charging handle and that's it!

NEW OTs-142 5,45 LMG! This LMG by TsKIB SOO shares a lot with the OTs-128 7.62 and OTs-123 6,7 mm machineguns All of these are derived from the MTs-566 Semi-Automatic Sniper Rifle family OP - t.me/super_rembo/96…

Same as the other pic you asked about, too. There's a circle of industry, competition, and SOF guys in Russia that have their hands on some quite shiny stuff. Pics mostly leak out in like only Lazarev Tactical photos and competitions held by Trinity Arms
