The VHS-2 bullpup manufactured by Croatia's HS Produkt became one of the most frequently seen rifles during the Iraqi counter-offensives against ISIS during 2015-17. The rifle regularly appeared in news reports and social media posts and became somewhat synonymous with the fighting for Fallujah and Mosul. Be sure to check out our accompanying article for this video here - https://armourersbench.com/2022/01/16/the-vhs-2-in-iraq/ Correction: the VHS was not second to the HK416, that honour falls to the SCAR-L, the VHS was, however, one of the 5 rifles accepted for the trials.
