If that ever happens I will learn german and buy a ticket to Germany. (Lousy school didn't allow me to take german since I have already studied french for 4 years.)

It's still the C7 and C8 rifles, they've just undergone an upgrade program, hence the new flashy looking furniture and rail mounts.
So basically M16/M4s

Of them all, Tamil Tigers is the strongest. They have a motherfucking airforce and navy.
Most of them are no longer in existence. The Tamils however are an organised bunch even today.

AR-15 pattern rifle with what looks like M320 or AG36 mounted underneath with red dot+magnifiers up top.
Unless you meant the MG in which case I have no idea.

Also the weapons are fitted with BFA's and laser tagging systems, they are on a training exercise.

groups of IRA are still around, friend of mine, he's a cop, was almost killed by an IRA hand grenade. When he triggered the booby-trap, it bulled on the grenades top so hard it fuse came completely off from the explosive.
German army gear is so fancy. They have some good stuff.

There will always be an IRA presence in the North, same goes for Loyalist para's as well.

[QUOTE=junker|154;33493774]German army gear is so fancy. They have some good stuff.[/QUOTE]
It's all about the same standard kit as any other nation.
Infact it's a slight step back. They're wearing PASGT style Flak Vests (Flak protect against shrapnel rather than gunshots) with MOLLE LBE vests overtop of them for pouches.
Whereas most nations have grown out of the out-dated phase and provide MOLLE vests with intergrated SAPI plates. (replaceable bullet-resistant plates)
[img]http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_k07pirzBU34/SZa-Ygdeb1I/AAAAAAAAAiU/JkL5lmaOU6A/s400/Inserting_SAPI_plate.jpg[/img]
The Pros and Cons of each.
Flak Vest with a Load Bearing Vest thrown over it:
Pros -
* Provides Shrapnel Protection to the Soldier with decent coverage.
* The LBE provides same modular setup as most dedicated MOLLE vests
Cons -
* Flak Jackets are often heavy, hot and uncomfortable
* Flak Jackets that take hits need to be completely replaced
* LBE rigs can be uncomfortable, twist or not sit right over a Flak Vest
* Flak Vests severely limit your range of motion
* Do not provide any degree of bullet resistance
Dedicated MOLLE vest with SAPI Plates:
Pros -
* MOLLE vests that accept SAPI come in a wide variety of styles to suit mission roles and wearer preference.
* SAPI Plates can be replaced once they take a hit without having to scrap the entire vest
* SAPI Provide a reasonable stopping force against bullets
* MOLLE setup allows for modular placement of pouches for different mission roles or wearer preference.
Cons -
* Less coverage than a Flak Vest
* Little Shrapnel Protection

It may look fancy but it isnt really anything special. A G36 is just a fancy, expensive AR-18 that can't fit an M203.
The MG3 however is a nice bit of kit.

Still love the look of the G36, though. They look like sex.
