Can someone give me an accurate, up-to-date list of the weapons used by the Parachute Regiemnt's elite group, the Pathfinder Platoon.
I know that the following are used...
-50 cal achine gun
-GPMG (gimpy)
-grenade machine gun
-javelin
I was wondering what the standard rifle is, is it the SA80 or the C8 Diameco.

I did read that they are chaging their rifles from the SA 80 but be blowed if I can remember what it was called.
