In commemoration of 75 years of independence, AWEIL launched Down folding butt version of 7.62*39mm Trichy Assault Rifle on 25th August 2021. Down folding butt version for quick and easy movement of personnel in guard and patrolling duty. At present, TAR Rifles are available in two other variants i.e. Fixed butt and side folding butt versions. The 7.62*39mm Trichy Assault Rifle (TAR) is a powerful individual automatic weapon designed to counter insurgency. A robust rifle having single and burst mode. By firing in burst mode in short series, group or single targets at a range up to 500m can be wrecked. However, the destructive effect of the TAR is up to a range of 1350m. TAR comes with a combination of flash hider, compensator and scope sight mount. A truly versatile and deadly weapon.
