generic corruption.
the story of the accuracy international is hilarious too

Hold my beer.

>>510977760
worst things i've heard from these is the stocks cracking and it's terrible for lefties that are born wrong anyways, what else was bad?

>>510977419 (OP)
Whatever I love that thing and always will.

>>510977419 (OP)
Don't you potato munchers use the AUG?

>>510977419 (OP)
I rather have this old classic than anything new

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/M1_carbine

>>510977419 (OP)
That was my favorite rifle in bf2

>>510977419 (OP)
the a2/a3 are decent enough
most battles are won with artillery anyway, and we make the best big guns, hell, even the yanks use our kit

>>510977760
Take it back right now.

>>510977843
Im a leftie and never held firearms with my left hands. You know you can learn to utilize both hands in life for different situations.

>>510978414
Pathetic cope, I need a rifle that's reliable no matter how pretty the gear in the rear is fren.

>>510978945
why not call in artillery mate? better than risking your life because that's how they do it in hecking CoD

>>510977843
Double feeds, failure to fire, poor manufacturing and quality control, completely useless if it's dirty or moist, on the old ones the optics liked to fog up, just generally an unreliable piece of shit and hilariously easy to accidentally bump the mag release and go full spaghetti mode.

We should have just adopted what you were cunts were using or adopted one of our locally manufactured AR clones.

>>510979018
>call in artillery
Kek, my grandpa made a phone call during Frozen Chosin, a fucking CCP chink answered the phone fren. Never think anything but your own ass will save you in battle.

>>510979801
your grandad sounds like a retard, why was he calling the chinks on a telephone (!?) during battle, when he should have been using the radio?

>>510977566
>the story of the accuracy international is hilarious too
Really? I shot one at a sniper concentration and I thought it seemed like a nice rifle. Can't remember the caliber unfortunately, it was a long time ago.

>>510980084
You're retarded and don't know shit, flag checks out.

>>510980245
not why it's funny. apparently two or three guys built one for funsies and submitted it to the rifle build trials, and it won hands down.
But it was literally just a few guys in a garage and the govt SPECIFCALLY said this rifle is amazing we are just going to send over some inspectors to check out your factory and warehouse to make sure you aren't just two assholes in a garage fucking with us see you tomorrow.
so then they had to rent out a warehouse, take apart the other 4 rifles they had to pretend they were on the assembly line, hire a handful of randos to all pretend they weren't just two assholes building a rifle out of a backyard garage and submitting a rifle to the govt for funsies.
i'm sure i missed a few details

>>510980379
your grandad telephoned china, sit down

>>510977419 (OP)
The same reason you have the worst training.

>>510977760
i remember when i tried it in cs1.6 first time like 20 years ago

>>510978414
>all serious regiments in uk use ar platforms
>”its bout the arty innit?”
Jesus fuck no wonder you retards lost your nation and still to this day fight against self defence and free speech while the royals and foreigners rape your women and children. I would literally rather live in some second world shithole than your bootlicking police state, and im from Canada which says a lot about how bad you lot failed

>>510981072
>I would literally rather live in some second world shithole
You already are.

>>510980544
That is apparently what happened.
AI does produce some good kit thought but like you said, the start up was funny.

>>510980544
Funny story anon, thanks.

>>510978723
>thinks he was talking about hands

>>510977760
what an ugly piece of gear.

>>510980891
My favourite was when a couple of RAF Reg squaddies went up against US Army Rangers on an episode of Ultimate Soldier Challenge kek

>>510979039
Americans do the right thing after they've exhausted every other option, Brits just continue to do the wrong thing forever.

>>510977419 (OP)
Not anymore
They redesigned it
L85A2 is very reliable and efficient

>>510980544
that's hilarious actually.
and proof positive that the UK is a corrupt shithole.

>>510981877
Aren't you on the A3+ at this point? It really feels like the L85 has this undeserved, unshakable reputation from 40 years ago that hasn't been an issue in nearly just as long. It wouldn't still be in widespread service decades later if it was still as shitty as it was in 1980 or whenever.

>>510981707
Imagine losing to 5 miles of hell hahahahah

>>510981707
American midgets are attracted to our special forces like nobody's business.

>>510978414
bongs are always full of themselves putting ribbons on their turds.

>>510977419 (OP)
We were winning the worst service rifle competition but you know anglos, they always want to get above us

>>510982035
>Aren't you on the A3+ at this point?
Yes we are.
> It really feels like the L85 has this undeserved
The original SA80 was bad and deserved it's bad reputation, it's much better now.

>>510977760
B-but "Karl" from Die Hard had a Steyr AUG and that's, like, one of my favorite movies ever.

>>510977419 (OP)

British Army cucks get cucked on the battlefield, as well as at home.

Isn't one of your deadliest former special forces guys basically a guy who looks like a library receptionist?

>Isn't one of your deadliest former special forces guys basically a guy who looks like a library receptionist?
I know you see the Famous SAS guys on TV and video but many of our SF guys you would pass in the street and never know, some of them look like librarians too.

>>510982221
That rifle is about the only thing you frogs got right.

>>510982636
War nerds are dangerous.

apparently we're already begging to stick with/go back to m4s
wonder what fuckery is going on internally to keep accepting sig dogshit

>>510982799
Yes, and it was bad, imagine the other stuff kek

>>510982880
piston AR is the ultimate action, there will never be something else better before direct energy weapons

All this smack talk is so retarded to read when almost all UK & US servicemen (you know, those that actually served and aren't /pol/ fatasses) have nothing but extensive appreciation and respect for one another at every level.

>>510982880
>what if we take an M4 and make it look stupid

The A3 is practically a different rifle compared to the A1.

>>510978414
>we make the best big guns
Actually, you don't make any guns at all:
https://ukdefencejournal.org.uk/bae-revives-production-of-m777-lightweight-artillery/
We'll see if production actually restarts next year as planned or if there will be more delays

>>510979039
Short stroke pistons are gay. All the modern Euro wonder rifles are gay.

>>510983307
I think you are mistaking a new contract for guns rather than existing production.

Brits do everything right. Tanks, rifles, grenades, attire, vehicles, etc etc.

Literally everything about british military is peak comfy, while American is rather soulless. The Churchill and valentine are my favorite tanks. The l85 is a fantastic sexy rifle. British ww2 headgear is kino. Redcoats were chads. And don't forget the Indiana Jones type tropical safari outfit that is quintessential british. Oh and don't forget the spitfire. Lee Enfield etc.

America Cas the faggy Sherman tank, and a boring ugly m4 carbine. Disgusting country.

>>510984045
Based.

>>510977853
I knew these guys were race traitor pieces of shit like 10 years ago when they randomly mentioned in one of their vids that they volunteer at a slavery remembrance museum or some shit. That set off my cuck detector. And, like usual, my intuition was correct. I wish all of these nigger lovers were forced to live in a black sub-Saharan African country. Leftoids shouldn't be allowed to get away with their dangerously delusional ideology.

>>510977419 (OP)
Britain is a failed nation, that may play a small role.

>>510983965
I am not, they are talking about entirely restarting production as it had ceased
>Orders from the Army slowed down over the last decade, and the service ordered its final 18 guns in 2019. BAE delivered that howitzer to the service in February 2023, according to Lisa Hillary-Tee, a company spokeswoman.
>BAE began closing its production line overall as it built the final guns, she told Defense News.

>born wrong
lefties like me have better innate ambidexterity than lowly rightfags like you.
historically, you guys had to come up with spooky stories about us to cope with your inferiority.
and thats not to mention the total passive aggression that is making scissors handed just to fuck with us.
total southpaw supremacy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

>>510977419 (OP)
The Sten gun and the L85 suggest they are shite at gunsmithing, but we can't talk since we have nothing.

>>510983128
The Brits are the bottom in this relationship and they know it, they do nothing but kiss american ass

>>510984647
We still make guns but I suppose your purpose is to deny that and join in with Brit-bashing.
carry on.

>>510984045
I always like brit vehicle design remember The unique vulcan bomber?

>>510979039
They should still be using the mk.4. They can’t handle automatic rifles.

I stopped watching Ian like 3-4 years ago, he had some cool videos, especially the ones regarding a modern british sniper rifle and the WW2 german paratropper assault rifle, but you can tell he go corrupted at some point and is probably super liberal at this point, as with most large YouTubers once they "make it."

>>510981072
>>510981170
The UK is not a first world cunt by any means.

>>510980891
I’m not confident the British Army could even field a light brigade. This propaganda story of higher quality Brits beating mutts is expected. We let any idiot commit war crimes over here.

>>510984770
Actually we made a shotgun once, then went out of business

>>510984836
The irony of a 4'6 paddy asserting that is pretty fucking funny.

>>510985757
YAWN

>>510985895
Even those faggot French could dick your military down now, Nigel. Lol

>>510977566
What can be attributed to corruption is actually straight up ineptitude here. The MoD is very fond of wasting money. Hence why the UK wants to switch to another rifle gradually while not building a single one here.
My favourites are a body armour replacement that nobody likes and a UOR pistol that never passed field trials for an actual replacement to the browning hi-power.

>>510977419 (OP)
The L85 is nicknamed "the civil servant" because it doesn't work and it can't be fired.

>>510977760
Steyr AUGs are amazing you dumb kangaroo-nigger.

>>510980891
i dunno , we in logistics beat a group of royal marines by storming their position. lost half our unit because we were not taking it seriously.
Suicide squads are hard to beat with the tagging systems they have

we dont always make the best stuff but we make the cool looking stuff simple as

>>510977419 (OP)
it doesn't - anymore

>>510977419 (OP)
Isn't this guy a dirty communist? He looks like Lenin.

>>510980891
It's a war game, so the logistics guys probably aren't taking the combat element too seriously, so once the Marine Commandos make a breakthrough it's not like the cooks and truck drivers have anything to gain from putting up a fight.

That's what I think happened here.

> They made a rifle capable of 3 round burst.
> Magazine capacity is 25 rounds.
Typical french.

>>510982373
It has shit ergonomics, unlike other bullpups that entered service like the AUG and FAMAS that can be configured for left hand shooting and shot off-hand if the situation calls for it, the L85's charging handle makes that impossible.

It's a fundamentally flawed design, the fact that it was a piece of shit ontop of a flawed design just makes it more baffling that you didn't just trash it and buy G36s.

>>510981707
Was that the 2nd squadron. They are elite tier and not just sentry duty, like everyone else.
