The Award of the Commander of the State Protection Service is granted to products distinguished by high build quality, innovation, and usefulness in carrying out tasks related to national security and the protection of the most important persons in the state.

The award-winning model is a further development of the MSBS Grot platform and was designed to improve ergonomics, reliability, and functionality in operational conditions. The design takes into account user experience and the current requirements of the modern battlefield.

“The award we have received confirms that we are consistently developing products that meet the needs of modern services and armed forces. The MSBS Grot rifle is now one of the pillars of our portfolio and an important element in building the potential of the domestic defense industry,” said Seweryn Figurski, president of the management board of Fabryka Broni Łucznik-Radom.

The A3 version has been very positively received and represents the next stage in the development of the MSBS Grot system, production of which has already exceeded 240,000 units.

“The A3 version is the result of close cooperation with users and a response to their operational experience. The changes introduced translate into an even higher level of weapon ergonomics and reliability in operational conditions,” said Jakub Czułba, member of the management board of Fabryka Broni Łucznik-Radom.

Thanks to the completed expansion of its production infrastructure, including the commissioning of a modern hall and its comprehensive outfitting with advanced production lines, the company has significantly increased its manufacturing capacity. Fabryka Broni’s current production capabilities make it possible to reach a level of up to 80,000 firearms per year, representing significant potential in terms of meeting the needs of the Polish Armed Forces and other uniformed services, while also fulfilling orders for the civilian and export markets.

The POLSECURE International Police and Public Security Fair is one of the most important public security industry events in Poland, bringing together representatives of services, administration, and the defense industry. The distinction awarded during the event confirms the high assessment of the latest A3 version of the MSBS Grot rifle, which has been very positively received by users and industry experts.
