The remaining guns will be manufactured in India, as a joint venture of Indo-Russia Rifles Private Limited.
Letâs have a look into the main differences between the AK-47 and AK-203 riffled. The AK-47 rifle is not capable enough of firing bullets as the range of the rifles is very less.
The latest version AK-203 holds 30 bullets and offers an effective range of 400 meters. It is believed that the rifle has 100 percent accuracy. These rifles come with the flash facility for a clear vision.
