It is the Mexican Army service rifle. Heckler & Koch thought it was a copycat of their G36, but

spic here

You would see the G3 more than you would this. I think I may see it when I visit later on though. I see the Galil ACE whenever I go down there so this should be more common from the last time I went.

It has steadily replaced the G3 so I guess it just werks. Only G3's I've seen for a few years are in hands of guards.

Most people think HK just STFU to avoid losing all those sweet LEO sales. Plenty of Mexican PDs that want o upgrade from handme down, beat up AR15s get either the G36E or the Beretta ARX.

Or maybe they told them "Fuck off ese Hans, we gots sum inspirations from the AR18 :^)", haha.

State/Municipal police were pretty shit overall. In some places in the North entire PDs got the boot in mass and replaced with soldiers and federal police while the Academies raised cadets that could pass a drug test or weren't grossly blatantly corrupt fucks.

So it LOOKS like a G36, but it's not a clone of the G36.

Then what IS it a clone of?

It seems cool enough. Kinda pissed that the Mexicanitos get a shiny new cool gun and 'Murica is still stuck in the 60s with the AR platform.
I mean, our shit works but, it doesn't look nearly as fancy.

This shit is like some amalgamation between an ACR, xm8 and a G3. looks neat.
