SA80 getting upgraded

>>31374282
Lmao polishing a turd. Judging by the rail it looks like H&K is giving it a go yet again.

>mid life
>beyond...2025
God help us all.

This is a trial. It's not confirmed to have passed, nor will it be standard issue.

>>31374299

A1 was a shit pile, but the A2 has proven itself to be a reliable weapon system, even if it's a bit heavy.

Besides, for a government in austerity mode, an upgrade to an existing weapon is way cheaper than buying a new weapon.

>>31374282
>redesign of the A3 upper receiver for improved reliability and maintainability over the current A2 variant
About fucking time they start fixing the gas port.

Aims to prolong it past it's out of service date. Doesn't mean it will and I imagine it will get binned before that time and they will go with the LMT.

>>31374299

I will listen to your shit opinion if you can tell me how many times you have actually fired this gun?

Why not order some f2000's instead ? i"m sure Belgium could give you a BFF discount

>>31374282
At this point, America is going to be the only one with a service weapon that's not memeyote brown

>>31375356
Because buying new shit is expensive. And buying new shit from other country does not make jobs for your country so government opposition can use it as a weapon in next elections and you get shit from citizens for wasting money and not providing jerbs

>>31375356

No budget for it.

>>31375394
Black gear is stupid tho. does not blend and gets hot in sun. especially black rubberboots are pain in the ass in summer

>>31374693
Weight is a bit of a positive in some regards to shooting, definitely one of the more accurate hitting bullpups out there compared to the F88.

Is that a fucking gripod?
When will this meme end

>choosing keymod over m-lok

>>31375554
Stop being a contrarian faggot. The Parachute Regiment are one of the premier airborne infantry units in the western world. They're so highly regarded that an entire battalion is permanently seconded to UKSF.

>>31375858
Keymod is propably easier to make slightly different so you dont have to pay for the patent holder

>>31374838
I'll listen to shitbongs opinion when you tell me you can buy center fire semi automatics without licensing.

It is not keymod
it is HKeymod which is H&K's proprietary mounting system.
It's also on the US Army's CSASS, so it has seen more military adoption than either mlok or keymod

>t. serf
KEK! Not that anon by the way.

>>31374838
I've probably fired it more times than you.

>>31376312
owning a firearm doesn't make you qualified on foreign militaries on a taiwanese finger puppet board

H&Kmod points other way.

Isn't m-lok patent agreement with magpull free of charge?
