American M-4 assault rifles are being inducted into the Indian Army's special forces battalions for use in counter terrorists operations. India had recently signed a deal with the US for the procurement of M-4 carbines for the army's eight special forces battalions. These guns are now being inducted into the eight battalions of army's special forces, a report said. It said the new guns will not be a replacement for the existing inventory of Israeli Tavor-21, Uzi and mini-Uzi guns but will supplement the armoury. The Tavor-21 s were inducted only a few years ago into the SF battalions which were then equipped with AK-47s.
