The CS/LR17/CS/LR18 Modular Automatic Rifle (Chinese: CS/LR17/18型模块化自動步槍) is a "new generation" family of modular rifles developed by NORINCO with marketing to be done by Jianshe Industry Group.
History
The system was first publicly shown in November 2016 with the 5.56×45mm and 7.62×51mm versions (NAR-556 and 751) first shown. The CS/LR17 series is meant to be marketed to the export market. Their main competitors consist of the AK-12, Galil ACE, HK416/417 and FN SCAR series.
A heavily redesigned variant was shown at the 2018 Zhuhai Airshow.
Design
Development of the CS/LR17/LR18 system first started back in 2014, basing their design on the FN SCAR series. An unnamed UBGL is in development to complement it.
The system consists of three calibers: 5.56×45mm, 7.62×39mm and 7.62×51mm.
