The AKY-3M is an assault rifle produced in Inyursta. It is a modernized variant of the earlier AKY-3 rifle, itself an unlicensed copy of the AK-47. It is the primary assault rifle used by units of Inyursta's military and federal-level police forces.
Design
As part of the 1990's Povèra Milleníairé 2000 program, the Inyurstan military set about modernizing its existing assault rifles in service. Lighter weight for the expeditionary soldier was considered a priority, as Inyursta was shifting away from a defense-based military to an offensive, power-projecting military.
