Rostec’s IGLA brand has presented a new civilian shooting system at the Moscow International ORËLEXPO exhibition. It comprises an IGLA rifle and ammunition bearing the same brand. The company says all components are manufactured in Russia and can replace foreign products.
The lightweight, compact rifle is chambered for 308Win (7.62×51 mm) ammunition. It can be taken apart into two sections and reassembled in one movement, making it easier to transport, clean and maintain.
Five types of IGLA 308Win ammunition are on display: SP 150, Shakal 141, Shakal 160, Rocket 116 and Match 160 for sport shooting. The exhibition also features the IGLA Rocket hunting cartridge for the first time; its bullet has a muzzle velocity of more than 1,000 m/s.
