A bit of history: Polish army wanted to replace their old AKM and AKMS rifles with a new gun shooting soviet 5,45x39 mm ammunition. However, a license for soviet AK-74 rifle was quite expensive and had a lot of export limitation. Because of that Polish engineers developed wz. 88 Tantal rifle, which was modernization of the AKM. Production had not lasted too long, because of fall of the communism in Poland and leaving Warsaw Pact. Poland wanted to join NATO. Because of that, army needed a new rifle which shoots standard 5,56x45 mm NATO ammunition, so Tantal had been modernized to wz. 96 Beryl rifle, which is currently the standard issue Polish military rifle. Currently being replaced by MSBS Grot.
