(distant gypsy laughing)

its not a gun you can own (at least in the UK) .. its only for kids in cadets :p .308

in fact I dont think you can own it anywhere...

hmm

@wacka L98A2 Cadet?

the one I used was teh L98A1

Why would anyone want a L98?

(not much difference)

its basically the SA80

which the british army uses

@wacka I'm disappointed that there has been so much stupidity, graft, and politics in small arms purchases

@wacka We'd all be shooting FAL derivatives today, and loving it.

Or, you know, maybe the brits would've gotten ARs

I dont minf the fact that its extremely difficult to get guns in the UK

and... like I said.. you can buy AR-15s in the UK... I even provided an online link above 😛

I mean the L85 etc. were a dumb choice for military in Britain

not talking about private ownership

ah I see

AR was a waste for the U.S. when they did it too, in my opinion

well... in the mil Id take SA80 over Ar-15

you'd take one over any AR-pattern rifle, even one intended for military use?

@King Canuck did u watch the stream ?

sure... briti is best! 😛

@wacka what benefit does the SA80 have over an AR-pattern rifle?

overall length is not that different from an M4

its probably why the UK arms companies sell £17bn worth to the US

ergonomics are considerably worse

they don't sell 17bn quid in SA80s to the US
