@Kooijpolloi Thanks for the info man.
Ja I know about the blank cartridge thing even the R4 needs blanks to fire rifle grenades. That will make firing rifle grenades rather finicky and time consuming but realistic 😉 It also makes the M79 snotneus and Milkor Y2 MGL far more useful due to their rapid ability to put down 40mm fire
No r4 doesnt need blanks afaik uses a shot trap with a normal cartridge
I may be wrong
Really? Damn I assumed blanks I was sure I saw a 10 round magazine just for blanks

Second from bottom
Wew i see i lied its a blank firing one the design right after from the frogs is a shot trap the ac58
I see
This one was also license built by armscor
Cool man. Downloaded for reference
Any idea how common the nutria R4 paintjobs were?
Rifle grenade
As far as i can figure out not really common
I think maybe a few units had them in nutria but its not a lot
We still use those rifle grenades
Another rifle grenade
Interesting wooden grips here with pattern 83 gear.
Weird how they still use the rifle grenades when underbarrel grenade launchers have been out for so long which offer a faster fire rate.
Another nutria R4
With the paint wearing off on the dust cover
Its faster and cheaper to use rifle grenades
And everyone can carry a couple extra
Also an underbarrel gl on an r4 would make it one really really heavy gun
True, the R4 being milled steel is certainly heavier than the mostly plastic M4
Not really because of that
Its the whole design
Long stroke piston
Bulky bolt carrier group
Long barrel
But its tough and it wont die
Is the galil animated yet?
Not yet. High poly model isn't finished yet.
Oh yeah cool, we were talking in Israel Defense Forces mod discord they might have an interest in that gun
Ah alright, ja not sure when it'll be done as I'm working on multiple assets simultaneously 😉
High poly is almost done though
Just a few issues with it that I need to sort out before I'm satisfied with it.
Sure thing I wonder how much gear IDF and ZA forces shared at that time
Quite a bit
