Yea the SA 80 is a joy to fire, after just 10 mins I felt really confident with it, I was gettin tight groups at 200m even while firing off whole clips in 10-15 odd secs. Reloadin and strippin was quick n easy, Â I felt like I was a vet!
Ok it has reliability probs but they are being sorted.
Ok the L1A1 is prefered by alot of old sweats but in most situations I'd go for the SA80. Â You guys probably know that when the L1A1 was brought into service in the 50s a lot of squaddies said they prefered the old Enfield. Â The army is a conservative institution by nature lads.
