Unidentified rifle in Iraq, translucent magazines. (update: identified as VHS)

looks like so much random sh*t is bolted on it. Yet somehow I want...

Aftermarket magwell adapter looks to be pre-installed.

I did up a quick comparison with a CTAR (25.2") and a 16"-barreled VHS-2 (27", apparently) and it doesn't look that much worse.

The rail height looks more compatible with AR optics than the Tavor.

But, a Tavor with a RPM handguard sure looks the sharpest hands down.

It does...but maybe a smidge higher than an AR, like an FS2000.

Agreed...I've owned four Tavors and this is the first one that's felt just right to me.

As well as everything else...there's a whole lot goin' on with that rifle

Are those at the same scale?

The Tavor is already sitting at ~15.75", so it doesn't take all that much more to start getting ridiculous.

Looks like an HK G36 and Kel-Tec RFB had a baby.

I realized this morning that I used the published OAL for the CTAR but that pic has the shorter Manticore buttpad so it's a little too big in comparison to the VHS-2. I'll fix it tonight.

**EDIT: Fixed now...made less difference than I was expecting***

They seem to have tried a lot of different methods of operation in the development of this rifle!. i.e long stroke gas piston, delayed blow back (like FAMAS), direct gas impingement and finally short stroke piston.

I’m pretty sure the creator was a Killzone 2 fan. It looks oddly similar like the STA-52 minus the drum magazine.

They also had it ambi ejection and now from what I read its fixed for righties only. As a southpaw I lost all interest in it after that. Previously I would have got one if it ever made it to Canada.

They should have just AUG. Same with IDF. Waste of time all these guns.
