Assault Rifles

FN FAL R1 7,62.51mm Assault Rifle Short Barrel, Fold Up Stock

The South African R1 series of rifles are based on the Fabrique Nationale de Herstal (FN) Fusil Automatique Léger (FAL) (light automatic rifle) or FAL. Formally introduced by its designer Dieudonne Saive in 1951, and produced two years later, it has been described as the "right arm of the free world." After a competition between the German G3 rifle, the Armalite AR-10, and the FN FAL, the South African military adopted three variants of the FAL:

• a rifle under the Commonwealth pattern with the designation R1

• a variant of the FN FAL folding-stock rifle fabricated locally under the designation R2

• a model designed for police use capable of automatic fire under the designation R3

  The license-built R1/R2/R3 was built by Lyttelton Engineering Works (LEW) and the Armaments Development and Production Corporation of South Africa (ARMSCOR).

R5 5,56 x 45mm Assault Rifle, Fold Up Stock

The R5 is a 5.56 mm assault rifle that was introduced into service with the South African Police in the late 1980's, replacing the earlier 7.62 mm R1 / FN FAL rifle, which was manufactured in South Africa under a license agreement from Fabrique Nationale. The R5 is produced by Vektor (a small arms division of Denel Corporation, currently Denel Land Systems). The weapon is a licensed variant of the Israeli Galil assault rifle with several modifications; notably, both the stock and magazine are now made of a high-strength polymer, and the stock's arms were lengthened, adapting the weapon for the average South African soldier. The R5 is a selective-fire, gas-operated weapon that fires from a closed bolt.

Sniper Rifles

McMillan TAC-50 12,7 x 99mm sniper rifle

TAC-50 sniper rifle is produced in the USA by McMillan Bros. Rifles Co. This long-range anti-materiel / anti-personnel weapon is based on previous designs from the same company, which first appeared during the late 1980s. McMillan Co. makes several versions of .50 caliber rifles, based on the same proprietary action, for military, law enforcement, and civilian use. TAC-50 is a military / LE weapon, the standard Long-Range Sniper rifle of the Canadian Armed Forces since 2000. Rifles of the TAC-50 family are capable of outstanding accuracy and guaranteed to provide 0.5 MOA groups with match-grade ammunition. TAC-50 rifle is also credited with the longest-range documented kill of an enemy soldier. In 2017 a sniper from Canada’s elite Joint Task Force2 killed an Islamic State insurgent during an operation in Iraq, whereby he shot and instantly killed the insurgent at a distance of 3,540 meters (2.14 miles). The bullet took 10 seconds to travel to the insurgent who was attacking Iraqi soldiers.

McMillan TAC-50 is a manually operated, rotary bolt rifle. The huge, full-size bolt has dual front locking lugs, and its body has spiral flutes to reduce weight. The heavy match-grade barrel is also fluted, and fitted with an effective muzzle brake. The rifle is fed from detachable box magazines, holding 5 rounds each. Stock is made from fiberglass by McMillan Stocks, and is designed to be used from bipod only. The buttstock is adjustable for the length of pull with rubber spacers and can be folded to the side or removed for compact storage. Rifle has no open sights and can be used with various telescopic or night sights; in Canadian service, the standard sight is a 16X telescope.

Accuracy International AICS .308 & .338

The .338 Lapua Magnum (8.6x70mm or 8.58x70mm) is a specialized rimless bottlenecked centerfire cartridge developed for military long-range sniper rifles.

The .338 Lapua is a dual-purpose anti-personnel and anti-materiel round; however, its anti-materiel potential is limited, due to the bullet's lower kinetic energy compared with that of the .50 BMG's 35.64-to-55.08-gram (550.0 to 850.0 gr) projectiles. The loaded cartridge is 14.93 mm in diameter (rim) and 93.5 mm long. It can penetrate better-than-standard military body armor at ranges up to 1,000 meters and has a maximum effective range of about 1,750 meters
