Gladiatorgarg; I understand from several of your posts that you are still serving in the armed forces. If so let me take this oppurtunity to thank you for your service to the country. Massive Respect.

A 7.62 calibre would quite likely have a lesser effective range than a 5.56 if the requirement is for a replacable upper as the case would necessarily be short with a short, low SD bullet..... A combination 5.56x45 with a 7.62x39 equivalent would be absolutely pointless however.
I`m glad that it appears that the INSAS is going to be abandoned - the reduced power 5.6x45 is hopeless.

a double barreled gun to shoot elephants.... WHITE ELEPHANTS!!!
a contract put together by clerks and a story reported by amateurs... referring to the multi-caliber contract for assault rifles. must fire 5.56x 7.62x45.
AND the army wants a separate contract for carbines where all the players for the multi-caliber are again in contest. how's that for confusing the enemy and ourselves. most world armies are going in for one standard weapon with different barrels... Indian army has drawn on its vast experience, beginning from the thought-controlled weapons of the Mahabharata to come up with these bizarre tenders.
