The Amogh carbine is a select-fire personal defense weapon designed and manufactured by the Ordnance Factories Board of India. Its Hindi name means unerring. It is a derivative of the Excalibur rifle, which is itself a development of the INSAS rifle, and it was designed for close quarters operations.
