Anyone able to find a high res of that?

i know a page on instagram sells a poster of that so they must have a high res image

is this better @Springbok

G3 were used by the marines right?

@Kooijpolloi yup SAMC used them

@Bartender slightly better, shot bru

no problem mate

SAMC and the recces yoused them when they were behind enemy lines doing spec op missions

but they were dreadfull to use apparently

Ive never heard if a recce using the G3

SA Marine aiming with a g3

Recce? Using G3? Or marine?

a recce

if you go read the book salute the eagle he writes about it

but the marines also used it yes

both branches hated the rifle

@Bartender what was wrong with it?

SAND

well everything rattled and as kooij said its was more prone to fouling than the FAL

the quality of the R#s we got were crap at best

G3s*

Ah alright makes sense as SWA was quite sandy. Though the R4 was adopted to replace the R1 for the same reason as far as I recall? The R4 handled sand far better than the R1.

This thing always intrigues me whenever I see it... no idea what they were thinking when they designed it. 🤔

looks like they were trying a new replacement for the buffel that wasnt the casspir or ratel

it look like they took a buffel body and made i longer with added armor

pretty much an enclosed buffel with a ratel cockpit

In end the Buffel Mk II won out then. As this was used in the townships iirc.

id love to own one and then just make it a flatbed instead of the apc

Ah the buffel platbak

Pic of it in that $700 book...

but ill keep the armored part for when shit hits the fan

The Swerwer

That looks so ugly

Similar to the Rhodesian Leopard in my opinion

well it is basically the south african leopard

its really a shame that all those vehicles are either rusting aaway in some sandf museum or already scrapped

WTF all of these vehicle's looks so ugly hoe designed these lol

The jhb war museum keeps their vehicles in working condition if possible.

War they were designed to function. Not to look good 😉
