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
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
Our M83 para helmet was based on an Israeli design I believe.
Same leather chin guard and all.
Of course R4 also being a Galil variant
Yeah this mod is gonna be modern IDF so I think CreativeRealms even said he would need a more modern Galil, but I suppose he could base it on the old one to make his, or use the old one as a stand in until the new one's in
Doesn't the modern IDF use the Tavor though?
Mostly yeah but Galil is still in use
Ah alright. Thought the Galil was no longer in use by the IDF.
