Small Arms

Name	Image	Origin	Type	Notes
Ekelhoc 941		Charnea	Semi-automatic pistol	Service pistol of the Charnean Army, chambered in .45 automatic.
KZ Ouzih		Onekawa-Nukanoa Charnea	Submachine gun	Kaokazuka copy of the Onekawan SMG.7, itself a licensed copy of the Yisraeli Uzi. Produced in large numbers in both wooden stock and folding metal stock variants between 1965 and 1985, spare parts are still produced at the Kaokazuka plant, although production has officially been halted with the submachine gun combat role due to be fully replaced by modern assault rifles. KZ Ouzih is still in service with vehicle crews, border guard units and reservists. Unlike the Onekawan and Yisraeli variants, the KZ Ouzih is chambered in .45 automatic.
AP-42		Elatia	Submachine gun	Purchased in large quantities from Elatia during the Ninvite War. Many were lost or destroyed in the conflict, while those that remained in Army stocks continued to be used by vehicle crews until being moved to storage in 2004. Many AP-42s in Charnean Army inventories have been re-issued to police units, exiting the military stockpiles.
K-48		Elatia	Battle rifle	Former standard issue service rifle of the Charnean Army between 1948 and 1963, retained in large numbers in storage and re-issued during the Ninvite War when additional units were purchased from Elatia. Modified K-48s remains in service as marksman rifles, and are commonly found in unmodified form with the border guards and reserve units. Chambered in 7.62×39mm.
AK-54		Elatia	Assault rifle	AK-54F is the primary service rifle of the Charnean Army, produced under license by the Kaokazuka corporation. Large stockpiles of the AK-54B and C variants are held in storage and issued to reserve units. AK-54M is purchased from Elatia and issued in small numbers to elite units of the Army. Similarly, small batches of the AK-54S variant are used by Charnean special forces. All AK-54 pattern rifles use steel-cased 7.62×39mm rounds.
Albarodan-63		Charnea	Assault rifle	Former service rifle of the Charnean Army from 1963-1981, now in primarily in storage. Design based on the Elatian K-48 semi-automatic rifle.
M76		Charnea	Marksman rifle	Originally based on a variant of the AK-54 chambered in 7.92x57mm, eventually developed into a designated marksman rifle. Utilizes different caliber ammunition from the AK-54, K-48 and Albarodan-63 rifles in order to avoid being pressed into service with the low accuracy steel-cased 7.62x39mm ammunition most commonly used for those systems.
PR.9		Onekawa-Nukanoa	Sniper rifle	Primary sniper rifle of the Charnean Army, using mainly by special forces units. Chambered in 8.58×70mm.
