New Delhi: The ever-dependable AK-47 assault rifle of the Army has just become deadlier and more stable, thanks to an indigenous upgrade solution brought in by an Indian company. The Bengaluru-based SSS Defence, which won a contract from an elite unit of the Army — beating an Israeli firm — in October last year, delivered its upgrade kits to the Army Wednesday, the company said. The new kit includes a new foldable buttstock for the rifle, which allows the soldier to operate it better. The upgrade also comes with a new dust cover that will allow mounting of sights, a feature that the AK-47 lacked until now. The sights will help the soldier aim. There have been changes to the front part, which will allow mounting of a bipod or a knife when needed. The upgrade kits include a hand-guard and vertical grip, which allow the soldier a better and stable firing position. Page 15 of 81
