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

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.

Fun fact. South Africa produced several batches of the Galil for Israel prior to the 1990's.

I read there was even a Swedish variant lol

Modern Galil is still in use by border guards in Israel

I saw some content of the mod awhile back but haven't heard much since. Wasn't CreativeRealms streaming his modding sessions at one point?

Long time ago yeah, he's more on the mapping side right now, I think he's looking for an animator

Keen to see what the IDF mod comes up with. Always great to have unique factions and conflicts featured.

do come on
