1. In the article, AQ claims that the weapons is an Indian made Vickers-Bertheir machine gun.
2. I will first inform the readers about the machine guns in use with the Indian army (accompanied with pics), and then prove how AQ is a liar and how he twists facts.
Photo from AQ's article:
This, he claims is a Vicker-Berthier machine gun.
Machine guns used by the Indian Army:(Iam only giving reference to the ones which look similar to the above)
a)7.62mm FN MAG
b)7.62mm Bren L4
c)7.62mm IB
d)Vickers-Berthier (discontinued, now only in Reserves)
FN MAG
7.62mm IB
Bren L4
Vicker-Bertheir (This is an early model, the cone shape barrel tip has been modified and is not present in late models)
As you can see, the guns used by Indian Army are different.
The gun shown in AQ's article really is:
This is the PK machine gun, designed and produced in Russia.
I request you all to be careful of people like AQ. He is in the same league as Zaid Hamid.
