We will develop a series of new assualt rifles for different purposes to be used by our special ops teams for different purposes.
List of assault rifles:
"Groza" OC-14

Kaliber, mm: 9x39 SP-6, 7.62x39 M43
Action: Gas operated, rotating bolt with 2 lugs
Length, mm: overall: 700 barrel: 415

Weigth, g: 3,200 (base config., unloaded)
Magazine, 20rds (9mm), 30rds AK-47 type (7.62mm)

"Groza" (Thunder) OC-14 assult rifle/grenade launcher designed by CKIB SOO (Central Design Bureau of Sporting and Hunting Weapons), located in Tula, Russia, and manufactured by TOZ (Tula Weapons Plant, Russia).
This gun was initially designed for Russian Internal Affairs Ministry special forces as an assault rifle/grenade launcher kit, allowing quick in-field conversions to the following configuration:
- assault carbine (with short barrel)
- assault rifle (with longer barrel and post-type front handle)
- silenced assault rifle
- assault rifle/grenade launcher (for this conversion main fire control handle with triggerguard and triggergroup is removed, and a 40mm grenade launcher with new handle and trigger group is installed; This new trigger group has one trigger for both grenade launcher and rifle, and additional selector lever "grenade/rifle"
All parts necesary for this conversion supplied in one kit, along with carrying case
A 7.62mm version named "Groza-1" was developed for Army SpetzNaz. This version accepts AK-47 standart magazines and may be equipped with standart issue AK-74 bayonet.
Mounts for scopes or night vision devices are available.
A-91 assault rifle
http://world.guns.ru/assault/a91_1.jpg
Caliber: 7.62x39mm and 5.56x45mm NATO
Action: Gas operated, rotating bolt
Overall length: 660 mm
Barrel length: ??
Weight: 3.97 kg empty (with integral grenade launcher)
Rate of fire: 600-800 rounds per minute
Magazine capacity: 30 rounds
The A-91 bullpup assault rifle (also known as A-91M) was developed during the 1990s by KBP (Instrument Design Bureau) in Tula, as an offspring of the A-91 family of compact assault rifles described above in the 9A-91 article. While the A-91 retains the basic gas-operated, rotating bolt action and a trigger unit design from 9A-91, it features a bullpup polymer housing, with an integral 40 mm single-shot grenade launcher mounted under the barrel. The earliest prototypes of the A-91 bullpup were fitted with the grenade launcher above the barrel, and with a front vertical foregrip; current models are fitted with the underbarrel launcher, which also serves as a forearm. The A-91 features a forward ejection system, initially developed in Tula by designers like Afanasiev during the early 1960s. In this system, the ejection port is located above the pistol grip, and points forward. Extracted cases are fed from bolt head through the short ejection tube to the ejection port, and fall out of the gun well clear of the shooter's face, even when firing from the left shoulder. As for now, the A-91 is made in small number and, probably, is used by some elite law enforcement units in Russia; it is also offered for export and domestic military and police sales.
The controls include double triggers (front for grenade launcher, back for rifle), and a large fire mode / safety lever at the right side of the receiver, above the magazine housing. The rifle trigger is fitted with an additional automatic trigger safety. The charging handle is located above the receiver, under the carrying handle, and is easily accessible for either hand.
The sights include a front post, mounted on a high base, and an aperture rear, adjustable for range, which is mounted on the integral carrying handle. The top of the carrying handle is shaped as a Weaver-type rail, and can accept a vide variety of scopes and sights. Folding grenade launcher sights are mounted at the front of the barrel.
Originally developed for 7.62 x 39 ammunition and standard AK-pattern magazines, the A-91 bullpup is now also available in 5.56 x 45 NATO chambering, which uses proprietary 30 round polymer magazines.
AS 'Val' silenced assault rifle
http://world.guns.ru/assault/as_val.jpg
Caliber: 9x39 mm (SP-6, PAB-9)
Action: Gas operated, rotating bolt with 6 lugs
Length: 875 / 615 mm (stock open / folded)
Barrel length: 200 mm
Effective range: about 300 meters with open sights
Weight: 2,96 kg empty
Rate of fire: 800 rounds per minute
Magazine capacity: 10 or 20 rounds
The AS "Val" (Avtomat Spetsialnij = special assault rifle) was developed by TSNIITOCHMASH under the leadership of P. Serdjukov during the late 1980s, as a part of the 9 x 39 family of silenced weapons for Soviet Special Forces. Its design is similar to one of VSS "Vintorez" sniper rifle, and differs only in the design of the buttstock and pistol grip. AS is widely used by Russian Army recon units, as well as by MVD (Internal Affairs Ministry) and FSB (Federal Security Bureau) Special Forces.
The AS is a gas operated, integrally silenced weapon. The receiver is machined from steel forging for added strength. The long stroke gas piston is located above the barrel, and rigidly attached to the bolt carrier. The rotating bolt has six lugs and locks into the receiver. The front part of the barrel, ahead of the gas port, has several sets of holes, drilled at the bottom of the rifling grooves. These holes are used to bleed some of the gun gas into the integral silencer. The trigger unit is somewhat similar to that of the Czech-made Sa. Vz.58 assault rifle, and the gun is striker-fired. The safety lever is similar to the one found on all Kalashnikov-type rifles, but the fire mode selector is a separate cross-bolt type button, located within the trigger guard, just behind the trigger. The open sights are graduated up to 400 meters in 25 meter increments, but the actual effective range is about 200-300 meters due to the rainbow-shaped trajectory of the heavy subsonic bullets. The AS is optimized for high performance armor piercing 9x39mm ammunition, designated as SP-6 or PAB-9, but can also fire "ball" type SP-5 ammunition, intended for VSS sniper rifles. The pistol grip and the short forearm are made from polymer, the skeletonized, side-folding buttstock is made from steel tubing. The AS rifle has a standard side-mounted rail for optical, night vision or red dot scopes. It has no provision for mounting a bayonet or a grenade launcher. The integral silencer could be easily detached for maintenance, repair, or compact storage, but the rifle cannot be fired with the silencer removed due to safety and reliability issues.
This assault rifles will replace AEK-971 as standrad issue weapons in Pushkan Special ops divisions. AEK-971 in turn will replace AK-108 as standard issue assault rifle for standard troops.
This are not yet for sale and will not be until further notice.
Money spent: 20 billion on development, manufacture, and equiping Pushkan forces with those rifles.
We will develop a series of new assualt rifles for different purposes to be used by our special ops teams for different purposes.
