6.5x55 mebbe

I understand some militaries use the SA58. Why not more? I’m surprised at least more militaries didn’t modernize their FALs as there’s so many around

it was the Right Arm of the Free World

Poors did the rest went intermediate rounds

🅱 ig think

Because warfare has moved on to intermediate cartridges.

^^^^^

Because everyone who had FAL’s was in nato and nato went “yes we must have 5.56”

That’s true, with the shift to 556

The time for battle rifles had passed

There’s still a use for DMR’s on a section level

But proper battle rifles are done

I guess there was enough of a gap between them and the kind of resurgence of battle rifles and DMRs

?

I mean not like they ever went away but now with military’s fielding SCAR17s and 417s it’s weird you don’t see them modernizing their old FALs that are in storage

But that can probably be as expensive as new rifles sometimes I guess

Not for general use (for the most part)

I’d like to see Canada do that, but they fucking melted most of their C1s

Why would you like to see Canada do that? For the sake of nostalgia?

Haha ours sit in war stores and were mostly melted

Not even nostalgia

We don’t have a DMR

So you want Canada to... modernize old C1’s as a DMR?

Immature Call of Duty 12 year old gun thoughts

Infantry sections will have two C9’s two 203’s, a radio and some M72’s

This makes zero sense

Yeah C1’s are inaccurate

FAL’s in general are kinda enh

I’ve only ever shot a C1 on two occasions heh

Need more C6s.

But light. Gib 240L

tilting bolt is shit

there is a reason they don't use that anymore

But 762x51. Must be accurate. Otherwise everything I know is a lie

it is accurate

in an AR DMR variant

True hah

*Laughs in Eugene Stoner*

-angelic voices-

I'm betting that there are more AR-18 and AR-15 and AR-10 rifles and derivatives now than AKs
