He can't help it Loz, the vision in his left eye is still blurred where it was banged in the rush to kiss Hardy after he'd been snogging Horatio, he couldn't stoop to necrophilia but was sorely tempted. Applying a powder monkey to his bleeding orifice didn't help matters much either.

Both the SA80 and the LSW are utter pants and I can base that opinion on personal experience
Although both accurate and excellent as range weapons, they aren't soldier friendly and they most certainly are not Bootneck friendly
I've been told that the A2 is even less friendly to Royal! Didn't think that could be possible but it is
I've asked an old oppo about this and it appears that the LSW has been removed as a support weapon and that the GPMG has been reinstaed as a section weapon, which for anyone that's ever used one, seen one or been on th recieving end of one knows that's a bloody good thing.
Give me a GPMG, spare barrells and as much link as I can move with and I'm a happy man

You Brits don't have Minimi for your infantry sections???
I hate being a machinegunner, (carrying C6 (M240) w/ SF kit is a bitch) but C9 aka M249 aka Minimi is an excellent weapon.
Can't believe that you guys don't have an excellent section weapon such as this. (A Canadian section of 8 men have 2 C9 per section)
Then again, theoretically, a Canadian infantry section has one of the highest firepower in NATO.
4x. C7 (M16A2 variant)
2x. C9 LMG
2x. C7 w/ M203A1
