I was browsing google trying to find info on the arms factory in Mexico that makes all the HK knock offs and I found this thread and tons of pics of the FX-05 assault rifle.









Direct link to thread but its all in Spanish:

I think it looks better than the unnamed "big boot" guns on the market...



I don't care for the "G-36/carbine/sub-gun look" but the rifle looks alright
Looks like some of that "captured" cartel money is going to good use..
What are the two firing positions..Slow and Retard?





Also I don't think I have ever seen a specific ammo (SS109) labeled on a weapon

Fire Snake?


For that reason, although there are numerous unofficial images on the Internet, there are no official pictures of the weapon. The Mexican restriction of official images is based on avoiding that cartel members confuse civilians with the use of disguised weapons in hopes of making it seem that the Mexican military is complicit in their activities. In a firefight between cartel hit men and Mexican soldiers it is important to be able to distinguish between federal security forces and the criminals. Protecting the integrity of the Mexican weapon helps in the war against the drug mafias. For the reason it is necessary to accept the official position of the government in restricting the release of official specifications for the weapon.

So, another weapon they can use ineffectively.



At least it's branded as coming from the MX military......which means that the Bradys will claim it came from TX gun shows when (not if) it shows up in the hands of the cartel.

How many cartel houses you been kicken the door in?  Those guys are a lot more skilled with real world experience then 99.99% of the comandos here, and with very little training to boot.

Remember, if they fuck up they get their heads cut off, body hanging from a bridge, then their family gets their heads cut off, then their daughter gets raped and her head cut off, etc.....

No, their entry tactics were pretty bad.  No decisiveness of movement, getting stuck in the fatal funnel, 8 man entry stacks, not focusing on their sector.  I've done my share of   building clearing, and that was rather abysmal.

remember the two SWAT shows in Texas on TV before...those were bad tactics....and I do have experience kicking in doors.....these guys need better training they are worse...not saying it is their fault..just saying they need some better training...

That might've been funny a few years ago, but don't kid yourself.  They can make good stuff with the rest of them these days.  I know my dad, who's a machinist, only had good things to say about the quality of their machine work the last he worked with any mexicans on anything.

It's a probably a pretty damned good rifle.

You know, at first I was surprised that I didn't see any of them in the narco pic threads, but then  I thought to myself, why would they show them? They're a rifle unique to Mexico. They can deny the other weapons came from their .mil, but not those!

Is it just me or does that thing strike anyone else as unnecessarily large? It just seems like it should be narrower and less tall. Granted, I know we're all spoiled by the compactness of the AR platform, and that gas-piston driven weapons are generally a little taller in profile, but that thing makes my AK look rather svelt.

I'd guess that when you flip that safety 180 degrees the "S" is covered by the lever and you can see the letter for the third position
