Thought this was an interesting read. If it's been posted before, I whole-heartedly apologize.... mwah:

nice post Zone....

Good read. Whats even better are the replies.

My cousins out in iraq as well, given the choice he picks an ak over the m4\16 anytime, considers the m4 and m16's to be unreliable pieces of shit.

Great find! Thanks Zoner!

The M14 will be in service until the end of the world. Not sure if this article mentions it but I'm almost positive the insurgency has some WW2 era weapons. I wouldn't be suprised if one or two carried Brown Bess muskets.

its just like bf2...the ak for medic owns all weapons

M16 always was a piece of shit though, in vietnam when it was introduced it was very unreliable, had upgrades and all but it still seems prone to jamming for the slightest thing. annoy:

From what he's told me those rifles have a really bad reputation over there, he does escort for convoys etc. Last time out they caught a few "insurgants" and some of the guys on his squad that had m16's swapped them out for the captured ak's. biggrin:

is he in the Irish Army of some shit..cuz that would be funny

GIMMIE YUR FOOKIN GUN YA CAMEL RIDIN CUNT, NOW PISS OFF YA FOOKER!

haha.
That was a good read. AS for the sniper who might have the new record. I cant imagine what it feels liek to get that record. Knowing youve killed more than 100 people and you will one day just go home and make dinner for your kids like it didnt happen.

Originally started off in the foreign legion over 10 years ago, hes the kind of person that lives for this kinda situation, if theres no trouble going on anywhere he gets bored. eek:

Runnin’ with the ak-47

lol " The M243 SAW (squad assault weapon): .223 cal. Drum fed light machine
gun. Big thumbs down. Universally considered a piece of shit."

"Mostly AK47's The entire country is an arsenal. Luckily, the enemy mostly shoots like shit. Undisciplined "spray and pray" type fire."

My cousin uses the SAW in the 10th Mountain. never new it ran like shit. annoy:

I have several friends who are in the Vermont reserves. One of them uses a SAW all the time and she LOVEs the gun.
Another one of my friends [img]http://myspace-719.vo.llnwd.net/00058/91/76/58966719_l.jpg[/img]
I don't think he minds the gun either. But then again he was in Kuwait and I dont think he saw much intense action.[/img]

No matter what any of you say, the M16A2/ A4 is a great rifle. It was made for professional soldiers who take care of their equipment, IE clean and lubricate. I have fired both AK and M16 and i must say i love the M16, its so deadly accurate, and the ones ive used jammed up once or twice but they were never "unreliable". I think out of all the times ive fired an M16 its jammed on me a total of 5 times.

Press "f" to fix jam

Wow that is a huge ratio. Its like 25 Iraqis killed for every American Soldier killed.

Not to sound like an ass or anything but good. Thats the way you win wars. The more of them that die and the less of us the better. The war may or may not be stupid, thats up to the individual to decide but now that there is one, Id the stats be so lop sided.

US is losing tickets because of Teamkills

ffs institute auto ban on that server. annoy:

In combat conditions that means nothing, sure the m16 might be good if you're in a pristine batlefield with no dirt or dust flying around but how often does that happen? And the fact that the rifle is unreliable at best im sure has cost many soldiers their lives.

I remember reading an article on a convoy hijacking and the soldiers m16 jammed because of the sand and he ended up having to load one round at a time into the breech like a damn bolt action rifle.

My cousin was in the legion for over 10 years and as i said lives for this kind of work, he's ben in combat conditions countless times and has a shitload of experience, if he says the m16 is a piece of shit im inclined to agree, he has first hand combat experience with it in bad conditions, noone else here has.

And when its all said and done do you really think the marines or army or whatever are gonna tell you one minute, this weapon is your life line and then later on tell you its an unreliable piece of shit? Must be a comforting thought going into battle. Reminds me of an article i read a while back about how in ww2 some american tankers were basically given a lecture about how a sherman outmatched a tiger tank. oOo:

YO DONT KNOW MAN I WAS THERE I WAS KNEE DEEP IN RICE PATTIES PUSHING CHARLIE BACK FROM THE LZ...I WAS DEEP IN THE SHIT.

I'm just saying reguardless of what you or anyone else has said, i love it and i know alot of other guys who love it. I've used it and i love how accurate and how light it is. I went to Moracco for a month, nothing but dirt, sand and dust storms, and i didnt have one jam,and i must have fired atleast 2,000 rounds.
