Wadi 0 Posted March 23, 2002 Is there an SA-80 anywhere that I can download? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AntiPasta 0 Posted March 23, 2002 well you might find one but probably it only has the name and the rate of fire, not the model. So it won't be of much use, it's just another scoped 5.56 30-RPC assault rifle Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Paratrooper 0 Posted March 24, 2002 Go to the OFPEC forum an look at bimbi's work. He's made an SA-80 and a LSW!! The're not released yet but the pics speak for themselves. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Major Fubar 0 Posted March 24, 2002 Wadi, you might want to search the forums, or search the FAQ before posting new topics, you will find most of the info you are looking for.

AntiPasta 0 Posted March 26, 2002 according to world.guns.ru, the SA-80 sux [edited to prevent flaming] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SPAEM 3 Posted March 26, 2002 the sa80 is the scaled down carbine version of the L85 it fires a nato standard 5.56x45mm it has a semi automatic and full auto fire and the m16 fires 5.56x45mm ammunition this has burst and semi auto so the SA80 is about the same as the M4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Paratrooper 0 Posted March 27, 2002 What the hell has its reliability got to do with a game model!!!?? There is always some smart guy who has to make himself look like he knows something about weapons who runs off the tired (and not really accurate) line; the SA-80 Sucks. IT IS AN IRRELEVANCE!

Placebo 28 Posted March 27, 2002 Speaking for myself, I don't care if the SA80 as a real life weapon "sux" or not, I'm English, English troops use the SA80, thus in Opf I'd like to use the SA80, end of story Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's not about whether the SA-80 is good or not, some guy simply wants to use the SA-80. And you can do.

madmike 0 Posted March 31, 2002 yeah they did, just like we sent SAS to Veitnam to train the Seals. They gave us lots of stingers and other useful kit. The problem was it took everyone by surprise, Britain was selling frigates to Argentina months before they invaded and America was selling kit as well. The French sold a load of EXOCET missiles and then promised not to sell anymore but broke their promise, bastards leading to the sinking of more ships Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
