Some further food for any future updates.
Infantry weapons of the new iraqi army
Assault Rifles
The AK has been the standard rifle of the new iraqi security forces after 2003.
It has been in the process of being phased out since 2007, with the first M16s being issued
in May of that year. The goal is to replace all AKs with the M16/M4 as quickly as possible.
Going by the numbers it would seem that by the end of 2008 most or all of the regular troops will be armed with M16/M4.

Machine guns
The PK has been the standard machine gun in the iraqi army, being used both as LMG
and MMG, as well as on vehicles and such. Some RPKs may have been used as well but not as many as the PKMs.
In addition some quantities of M249 SAW and M240 MMG machine guns have been requested but the replacement of the PK is not regarded as urgent as the replacement of the AK-47.

AT weapons
The RPG-7 is the standard antitank weapon. A small quantity of american LAWs has been purchased for testing purposes.
Like for the machine guns there is no pressing need. What ATGM is going to be selected is unknown at the moment. According to the rumor mill the supplier may be european.
Mortars
American 60mm mortars were issued starting from 2005. 81mm M252 mortars were issued starting from june 2008
and 120mm M120 mortars have been ordered as well.
