Thats a C7, not C9. C9 is a Light Machine Gun.

Thats a C9. I know you guys use it, but I don't know what you call it off the top of my head.

The scopes are alright. Their C79 Optical scope with a radioactive diode thingie, their getting kind of old. I've never seen an unscopped C7. Every single C7 i've handled had a scope on it. They are cool, but get in the way a lot of times. Their pretty useless at night and their kind of big.

C7A2 is in testing right now in Afghanistan. Theres info here if your interested:

There are some cool pictures
