Rasheed carbine

Common card · No. 497213

The Rasheed (or sometimes known as the Rashid) is a semi-automatic carbine, derived from the Hakim rifle and used by the Egyptian military. Only around 8,000 were made. The Rasheed was designed by the Swedish engineer Erik Eklund, who based it on his previous Hakim rifle, which was itself a slightly modified version of the Swedish Ag m/42 rifle. The Rasheed was scaled down to accept much less powerful 7,62×39 Soviet ammunition.
