Justice for SSS Defense

[@kousy007]

Anything made by govt psu can’t match the quality of private companies. Sig is a far better weapon. Also remember, making few and in bulk is whole different ball game. Design wise even insas is a great weapon but just manufacturing with right quality control, govt psu could not do it. I am a big supporter of self reliance but it should not be at the cost of soldiers life.

[@Cobra313456]

Lol 80% of exports are done by PSU. INSAS was the most unrealistic GSQR given to PSU but PSU should be given credit for they made it working THIS TYPE OF GSQR ARE NOT ACCEPTED BY FOREIGN COMPANIES especially Americans. Ex DM Parikar himself said Army makes its GSQR by reading MARVEL COMICS

[@sanjayhiremath9297]

True

[@sudip_curiousmind]

Agreed on PSU products but it doesn't have to be PSUs. The technology can be licensed to an Indian vendor with quality parameters and operational SLAs

Thumb nail is Misleading. Through out the video you don’t show any graphic/data related to the comparison.

[@sk8899]

Never understood the need for developing URGAM when OFB could've easily developed a modernized version of SLR like done by USA's DSA Firearms for FN FAL. OFB's obsession with Long-stroke piston systems doesn't makes sense if it really wants to compete against Weatern Systems.

[@siddhantmedpalliwar6860]

True, it should be so hard for them to reverse engineer, develop a working prototype, test and validate a proven rifle, but no they always want to develop from a scratch, back to square one.

[@theoakatsuki]

Long stroke were traditionally considered more reliable hence the insistence on long stroke. Besides DRDO has worked mostly around long stroke making them experts in that

[@rajeshbobba3851]

Desi weapons should be our Raksha mantra.

[@udaynj]

SIG has been global superpower in firearms. They produce real world rifles that have worked for decades in combat and tough field conditions. It would be insane for the Indian military to accept unproven Indian rifle from a company which has zero prior experience in manufacturing a battle proven rifle (unless someone is getting paid crores in bribes). Why not give the Indian rifle to CRPF and test in other smaller conflicts than to screw the Indian military with another potential INSAS rifle

[@linkme2dnet]

small batches can be easily ordered and tested in the zehaddi infested frontier regions

To all those saying ugram is outdated, genuine question to you all..HOW?? is the firing rate low, or is the accuracy low, is the quality low? Facts pls

[@NormalPerson053]

Long stroke piston heavier recoil. Cleaner then di of sig but best system is short stroke system. Sub par quality of parts by Indian government industry quality of parts have always been questionable. Bad repo and corruption of these psu can not be just disappeared. No mlock. Heavier. Biggest flaw no plans for optics and accessories to make a battle rifle accurate and deadly to 800-1000 yards. Because all the buzz about these battle rifles in usa sig spear and our ugram is to have a 308 rifle that can shoot to mid to long ranges because gwot shown 5.56 has draw backs and 7.62x39 has drawbacks. It's just a gimmick. Ak 47 is ok and our country has no problem of less soldiers our tactics is fucking USSR 1970 to 1990 tactics throw enough soldiers at threat encircle them and have special forces contacted eventually it will get neutralized the catch soldiers will die but no problem we got enough to replace . Nothing will change 😢. Our soldiers regular ones are still in 90s . Most conflicts they will face with outdated tools.

[@linkme2dnet]

@@NormalPerson053 the solution to your conutries trouble is not conventional.

[@100merijung]

SIG Saur is known for combat proved firearms. Be it Ukraine, Africa, UNPKF, Taiwan, SIGs have seen combat. Ranging from pistols, PDW/CCW, compact, assault rifles, DMRs, LMGs they are one of top 3 preferred firearms industries even by US for their service firearms. An industry known for innovations and goes toe to toe with H&K. IMO, I'm glad someone here finally understands why american. I'm not completely against our indigenous firearms but clearly if they didn't reach our jawaans then obviously, something through quality perspective things didn't work out as expected. Hence we had to select a better option. Russians are outdated, chinese can't be trusted, germans refuse to sell anything above MP5, israelis have provided enough and belgians are simply overpriced. UGRAM may need to go through many more tests. Until then, 716 is a good, effective and lethal primary pick.

[@Cameron-x1r]

"nothing works like an indigenous firearm" The SA80 was an indigenous firearm design and it didn't work frequently.

[@XD_Legacy_XD]

SSS defence should be in priority

[@deltron9524]

Please keep making such videos

[@Dicloxacillin_dexmedetomidine]

These private companies are not developing tech and materials in India. They are importing spares and assembling here Army wants 7.6 assault rifles with minimum 500meters accuracy Is ugram is 100% indian technology and 100% Indian material No importing of spare parts? I would suggest private companies to spend some time on developing technology from scratch 100% materials developed by you (no importing)

[@GreyHound8]

I think individual soldier should have option to choose weapon.

[@availablehage]

Do think of servicing ammo and training

[@abhisekdas4605]

Jai Hind Jai Bharat Jai Mahakal Sir please compare and make a video on Sig sauer 716, and G3 H&K. G3 is used by Pakistan army

[@skengene]

I think its unfair to compare so soon. Ugram has not seen combat test yet. It needs more time in actual combat . Sig has seen lot of combat n therefore underwent lot updates. Let ugram grow first.

[@be572]

UGRAM is 70s Based Weapon Model. Sig is Truely Modern Latest Gen Weapon. No Comparison Between Two.

[@skengene]

Sig did not become modern in 1st attempt. It is because of people like u tat indian arms have not developed properly.

How come the UGRAM developed by DRDO as per specifications and Inputs from the Indian Army does not get selected by the Army itself ?

[@AM-zk7pj]

The indian design is based on the Kalashnikov pattern its a better design when in trench and mud..

[@Olive_Chap]

Sig was supposed to be interim one time rifle for frontline troops.. but repeat order of same is travesty to Make In India.. Ugram or anything else by DRDO/ARDE is crap because of production capability of OFBs.. Instead DRDO know how should be transfer to willing small arms private player in India & kind of ergonomically sound SSS produce.. It should be from day one be chooses for this tender or future IA variant of 6.8mm round..

[@MohitSharma-sv5dp]

I think ugram need more modifications and it's need meet army requirements and has to pass all test across nation terrains

[@sanjayhiremath9297]

Hey lets be honest here indian armed forces inducted an gave order to ASMI machine pistols. This proves that if indian weapons are world class then our forces are th happiest forces in the worl an they r willing to accept and order the weapons but if they are not good enough they reject it even though the weapons are indian. So please you guys before makin a video or commenting take these actions into consideration. As far as SSS defence i aggree that weapons are good but maybe they r not upto the mark thats y the army dint purchase them, if they were good then army had taken those weapons in consideration like ASMI

[@sanjayhiremath9297]

​@@be572we need more private firms in this. Drdo is a good designer but it is not a quality manufacturer. You know asmi it is indian machine pistol o uzi which is designed by drdo in record time but manufacturing is done by private firms moreover indian army col was also involved with its design so he made sure that the design and quality is perfect which should match reqts of army so it is a gr8 success now. It is not that drdo don't have potential and talent it is just that it is a govt institution and u know govt institutions r dumb and constipated. If drdo was a pvt company it would have developed 5th gen fighter by now and flew it.

If u ask ur soilder to choose one gun between two they will choose sig... It's very early to make comparisn.. Only two countries had made world class assualt rifle till now that's US and Russia. Those isreali made tavor come after reverse engineering.. They studied both AK and M16 for more than 15 years. To make tavor.

Then you don't have knowledge about rifles in general

[@Hhsin23-b6m]

@pandibbarman it looks good when you see but when we fire, this rifle has high recoil in which it lacks accuracy... High caliber rifle useless though it has longer kargar range than Insas and Ak 47... And it's sights omg its breaks so easily when it fells down....

[@foodietour8313]

​@@Hhsin23-b6m First of all bhai ji No gun comes without a muzzle breaker which fires 7.62*51 except Sig 716. It doesn't have a Muzzle breaker so its recoil will be high. It is the problem of the Armed forces and the govt. that they are purchasing a Gun of 80000+ rs. Per unit and can't spend 5000 rs. On muzzle breaker. 2nd mountings of guns are made in India by Indian pvt. Companies so if it breaks during fall then it should be improved not Rifle. Thanks

@SangramKeshariDeo my friend u r right in ur supply chain and trust points I agree on them but we have to note that we can't use ugram as our primary service rifle. I guess we should drop both the rifles and go with indian ak203 as our choice, it is good rifle.
