Ah yes, plating that won't stop anything but WILL hinder your line of sight, chaff and eliminate the turret's 360-degree angle. Sounds like R*ssian engineering to me.

In the middle ages they used sling sticks to throw 14 pound stones at armoured opponents. I wonder if they could use sling sticks to throw those grenades.

Amazing how many left handed users were undermined by bull pup design. Left handed people have been undermined by SA80 making them slower to respond. Apparently WOKE doesn't cover left handers. As a veteran I'd love to give it a whorl

The irony that they were going to have SA80s for left handers but decided the number of lefties made it non-essential
@cayennepepper2010

Well, at the cost of vision, speed, maintenance, and turret control they've managed to make their tanks useless in combat and more vulnerable to everything that isn't a drone or a mine.

Maybe spain is just trying to get rid of their cetme l to replace them at home with something better. Maybe the ukrainians have them in storage as a "last ditch" gun, since they tend to be on the worse end of reliability

This is the type of weapon that could be obtained from a variety of countries on different continents. When the Czechs were scrounging for artillery shells around the world, they may have found some of these too.

lol all modern designs date back to concepts developed long before the 60s.
@G1NZOU
@G1NZOU 21 час назад
Because the 1960's design works and has proven itself. New is only better if it actually improves on older designs. The AR has demonstrated itself to be one of the best for conventional layout rifles in terms of compactness, weight, reliability, and modularity.

If I've got it right the unit price is £12,500 each which seems quite a lot

A good platform in the ar system but think a bad move having an optical sight as the first aid. Can see a back up iron sight but when using optical sights you are maybe not aware of other things infront of you.
