The StG 51, officially the Sturmgevär Modell 1951 or Sturmgevär m/51, is an Acrean select-fire 7.62x51mm battle rifle designed by the Stuhr arsenal for the Acrean Armed Forces in the late 1940s. It entered service in late 1950, becoming the standard service rifle for the Acrean Army and replacing both the StG m/43 and StG m/48. It is one of the most widespread and common small arms found in Tyran, being used in its various iterations by seven national militaries.
