No offence Don, but in my opinion the SA80 is junk and remains pretty much junk even with the upgrades...I have friends who carry it and swear it is better but it will still jam in a firefight, not a good situation. Thr problems are reduced but they have not gone away.
I offer as a supporting arguement for this, some footage on CNN recently. It was the British fighting in Basra....Middle of a firefight and there in the foreground was some poor b@#$%rd beating the heck out of his SA to try and un-jam it. The place for unreliability is not when trying to hold back the enemy.
There are more arguements to be made but this particular clip I thought was worthy of a mention..
