DSchnopp,

Lets not forget the 1873 Springfield, Sherman tanks, M60s and the 38 vs Moros.

Hows the L85A1 working out for the Brits ? Off the subject but what were the Britsh tanks used in WW2 and how did they do against the Panzers and Tigers.

L85A2 been in for a while and accepted to be one of the better 5.56 service rifles, believe it or not!

Well, unless it has improved a lot since I was issued with one it is still a toy. Shoot a falling plate match with one and you will see what I mean :roll:

Love to but falling plates seem to be a thing of the past, try the army rumour service for serving troops comments about the rifles available!http://www.arrse.co.uk/cpgn2/Forums/sea ... sults.html

Click on the link and there is a search list for the L85A2
