Malaysian 1st Rifles ''BERAPI'' LP02, LP06 & LP05
PETALING JAYA: For four years, the staff at Vita Berapi (M) Sdn Bhd have toiled at research and development.
But they will enjoy the fruits of their labour soon: The little-known Malaysian company is all set to produce the first made-in-Malaysia range of firearms.
Vita Berapi managing director Syed Yusoff Syed Abdullah said the company would open its first firearms manufacturing factory in Rawang by the end of the year.
He said the company hoped to supply its products to the Malaysian armed forces and other security forces.
"We have seven types of weapons, ranging from sidearms to rifles and even a pistol for sports.
"We believe that we can compete in the local and regional markets."
The company had spent much on research and development of its firearms, hiring designers from Belarus for the job.
Apart from the LP04 sports pistol, the company will also produce the Hicap Compact automatic pistol, LP01 combat pistol, LP01A automatic combat pistol (mini machine gun), LP02 sub machine gun, LP03 sub machine gun (modified), LP06 rifle and LP05 sniper rifle.
"The sports pistol was specially designed by a former Belarus shooting champion who is now the head of design at Vita Berapi. The pistol can hold up to five bullets at a time and is accurate up to 25 metres," Syed Yusoff said.
Vita Berapi’s pistol and combat pistol also have a range accuracy of 25 metres, while the automatic combat pistol’s accuracy goes up to 100 metres.
The range accuracy increases to 150 metres for both the submachine guns, while the accuracy for the rifle and sniper rifle is 600 metres and 2.5km respectively.
Ammunition for the firearms are 9mm calibre, with the exception of the rifle and sniper rifle, which use 5.56mm and 12.7mm calibre bullets respectively.
The rifles can be equipped with scopes and night vision sights, while the sniper rifle comes equipped with an optical sight.
