#AK4

NATO member and ally the Republic of Estonia has released a tender with up to €75 million (roughly $86 million USD) for nearly 20,000 new rifles in both the 5.56mm and 7.62mm calibers, according to reports from IHS Janes’ and other outlets. The new contract is intended to supply both brigades of the Estonian Land Forces with new weapons, replacing their aging Ak4 (license-built Swedish G3s) and Galil rifles.

The long awaited Spuhr stock assembly for the G3/MP5/HK33/53 is now finally available.

TFB’s Pete recently wrote about the European Sniper Competition, hosted by the U.S. Army in Germany.

The Berlin Wall fell some 27 years ago. Now the situation around the Baltic Sea seems to turn to the worse again.

Good news if you live in Germany, and some other European countries. If you live in the US I suppose these will continue to be made in unobtanium, but you’re always welcome to comment below how much you would like them. As I approached the H&K stand at IWA the surprise grew bigger, is that really? Yes it is!

February is coming to an end. Spring is soon here, which means exhibition time in Europe and time to tell our TFB followers about some new interesting products and news.
