MPT 76 SH

IN PRODUCTION

The MPT-76 SH (Sarsılmaz Hafif) is a gas-operated, selective-fire assault rifle designed and manufactured by Sarsılmaz Arms of Turkey. Intended as a lighter variant of the MPT-76, it aims to provide infantry units with a more maneuverable and ergonomic weapon while maintaining the 7.62x51mm NATO chambering for increased range and stopping power compared to 5.56mm NATO rifles. Its distinguishing features include a redesigned gas system and receiver to reduce weight, along with improved ergonomics such as an adjustable stock and ambidextrous controls. The MPT-76 SH has garnered attention for its robust construction and reliability, addressing concerns about the weight of the original MPT-76. It is designed for military and law enforcement applications, prioritizing accuracy and durability in demanding environments. The rifle's design incorporates a short-stroke gas piston system and a rotating bolt, contributing to its controlled recoil and accuracy.
