#Transparent

The Heckler & Koch G36 was created for the requirements of the German Armed Forces, but has been adopted by a long list of countries and users.

We have earlier  reported about the FAB Defense release of the PM-G Makarov grip which not only gives the old Mak a nice grip shape, texture and beaver tail but perhaps, more importantly, converts the magazine release from heel to thumb one. Recently FAB Defense introduced the transparent version of the PM-G grip dedicated to the Russian market.

Please excuse the poor pun. One of the rifles in the new Ghost in the Shell movie is based on the Tavor. Here is a display model Tavor SAR by IWI. As you can see it is completely transparent aside from the obvious parts that are not. I believe these were made to illustrate the function of the rifle but I have heard that they do not fire. I wonder if the shell would hold up to having real internals installed and fired? Probably not otherwise it would have been done by now. Still looks cool.

Lancer has released a statement pertaining to its L5AWM magazines manufactured in the month of March 2015, which may be defective:

With the news of Magpul’s Glock magazines, the Elite Tactical Systems Group magazines got drowned out. ETS is making transparent polymer Glock Magazines. They are expected to be released in April and they are making different size magazines for 9mm.

I have covered the TangoDown ARC magazine in detail previously but this is the first photo I have seen of the transparent model.
