Shame on Turkish gun manufacturers because they haven't been able to Submachine gun which SAT would use!

Shame on Sarsılmaz due-to their 9mm AR platform couldn't earn trust of Turkish SAT.

Turkish SAT conducting naval training with CZ Scorpion SMG ! on TCG in Libya!

They replaced MKEK MP5 clones with CZ Scorpion. İnteresting if our army prefers a gun, it is really better than others.

İt is time for creating a reliable SMG.

I don't want sig mpx clones which have gas-piston system.

We need clones of BT APC9K with hydraulic buffer.

The Special Forces Command is currently testing Mertsav MAR556 in 14.5 and 7 inch configurations.

So far the opinions are very positive!

Looks solid, cold hammer forged barrel, MLOK, interesting muzzle device and barrel profile, however...

Everything below 11.5" is nowdays not ideal for modern military grade 5.56x45 rounds especially without suppressor mounted on, 7.5" is literally a mini flamethrower (muzzle flash) and extremly loud. We can see that Jandarma (JOH) is using them in operations, without suppressors, in a firefight at night this is like showing the enemy where you/unit are the moment you pull that trigger. Does the Military think about such important details? I don't think so when i see that they are interested or consider a 7" rifle chambered in 5.56x45...


This chart here shows how much velocity and energy the 5.56x45 is losing below 11".

If we compare the 7" 5.56x45 with a 7" 300.Blk we see the difference, even though the 300.Blk has less velocity it's heavier bullet has nearly 50% higher stopping power, another huge benefit of the 300.Blk is you can shoot it reliably subsonic which means lower noise and flash signature.
