POTD: Beretta NARP (New Assault Rifle Platform) Suppressed
Welcome to another Photo Of The Day! Beretta Defense Technologies have released some new photos of their New Assault Rifle Platform (NARP) chambered in 5.56×45 NATO, so why not share this new, interesting firearm with you?
The NARP uses a short-stroke gas piston, a rotating bolt locking system, and is patterned like the AR. Here it’s seen with the 3D printed B-Silent sound suppressor.
Presented at DSEI in three variants in 5,56 NATO caliber, the New Assault Rifle Platform by BERETTA will be the first step of a completely new portfolio of battle weapons, this including a new assault rifle fitted with a muzzle flash reducer system and an improved thermal signature reduction.
Integrated with new BERETTA made B-Silent sound suppressor, produced using additive manufacturing technology, the new rifle dramatically reduces
soldiers’ signature thus increasing their survivability on the battlefield, masking soldiers from detection from sight and hearing.

Wow, Beretta really going out on a limb by inventing the AR-15....
Read the article again, it is not NARP, the weapon is not yet named.
