The Multi Caliber Individual Weapon System (MCIWS) has been a development since at least 2013. It is supposed to start military trials this month. It can be chambered in 5.56mm, 6.8 Remington SPC and 7.62x39mm.The receiver is Aluminum not polymer like so many new assault rifles in recent years.
I founded TFB in 2007 and over 10 years worked tirelessly, with the help of my team, to build it up into the largest gun blog online. I retired as Editor in Chief in 2017. During my decade at TFB I was fortunate to work with the most amazing talented writers and genuinely good people!

Given how the INSAS went, which is little more then needlessly complex butchered version of AK made in a disgraceful manner, I don't hold out much hope. It took them 32 years to make Arjun tank which is Indian hull and the rest is pretty much all foreign.
COME ON INDIA, POO IN LOO ALREADY!
