I would think the "System" comes with a lot of parts and tools also.

Well I suspect by the way they said it that was what they relay meant :D

I remember one smart arse sergeant telling me OCS was not for me but "Obstinate C*** School" was :thumbsup: To be honest I...

I would not be surprised what is taught at section level, probably has't changed much. I just learned to shut up and avoid being told to F**** off to OCS :D

Wow an increase in range from 300-600 meters! Unfortunately although they may be trained to shoot a rifle, some soldiers have only the most basic concept of ballistics.

OK so an ACOG IS way better...

one of my mates cut his hand open when the cocking handle broke, bled like a stuck pig

Dead is better have you been visiting some sort of gay military interest site? :wtfsmilie:

So that must be the new Steyr. I can see why we chose the AR15.

Cant remember exactly.. they were slow with ADI powder though. Think it might have been AR2208 getting around 2550 from the 18 inch barrel. I am sure you can soup that up (don't take my word for it...

Blank Firing Attachment BFA :D

77grain SMKs are awesome (for a 223). My NEA could shoot consistent 15mm groups with them.

Yes I preferred the SIG but then I liked the CZ75 that I tried even more. The truth is I haven't had a much pistol experience outside my air pistol :D but I didn't like the feel of the Glock much. I...

Not sure about swapping SIGs for GLOCKs, do they all have horrible triggers or is it only the NZ Police ones. The AR15 is definitely a good move.

OK i thought that it was still being phased out, it usual takes a few years for the Reserves to get the latest issue.

Unfortunately the Steyrs didn't use AR mags so the functionality was wasted. Now when a 5.56 - C9 gunner yells "Mags To The Gunner" everyone can throw their mags AT the gun :ouch...it hurts:...

Yeah I always wondered how much "Sustained Fire" the C9 could take after heating up both barrels on 400 rounds and the first one still being toasty hot while we swapped it back. No question though I...

SFMG=Sustained fire machine gun ie capable of maintaining a high rate of fire over a long time period.

"I think buying the LSW in 7.62mm was stupid , if you want a 7.62mm LMG , buy a real one , like the GPMG/MAG58" FAAAA you must be big. Section maneuvers with an FN-MAG is not fun, 11.79 kg vs 8.17 kg...

I had a lot of problems getting velocity from 77grain projectiles and a 18" barrel. Wounder what the secret is?

:oh noes: those 40mm are flaming heavy.

lets not forget the poor bugger who also carries macine gun belts and 40mm rounds and oh yes the radio.:x_x:

now that would be something.

Yeh no conspiracy there.. just shity politics.

No Koshogi you would be yelling HIT HIT HIT other wise it would be like yelling RIFLE RIFLE RIFLE (silly aye!) not BANG BANG BANG or BULLETS BULLETS BULLETS! NAH never had to do that :ORLY:

:O_O:

Everyone has their opinion :D

PRIOR to joining the army in the 1990s I came with no particular prior opinion of the Steyer or emotional attachment. Yes they worked and had some good and...

Well done! An inch and a half to two was the best I managed from memory. It depended a lot on the ammo also, i think we had some european stuff at one stage FN? that was quite good.

Yeah everyone has their opinion. Cant hit the side of a barn door? I won't accuse the Steyer of being inaccurate because a good one was easy 2-3moa. I must say that I found the Australian made ones...

Well from what I know the Army did want the AR-15 to start with (remember they had M16 A1s) but Colt was not prepared to allow local licensed manufacture and yes they were expensive. There was also...
