RE: SA80 in Afghanistan

Personally having used a few diferent Rifels when I was in the navy, I’d have gone with the AUG Styer. Although many Australians want the old SLR’s back which were good as well but the mian difference is round size, the SLR is of 7.62mm where as the Styer is 5.56mm.

The only bad thing about the styer is the amount of plastic. Now whilest this is good against the weather, it’s not good against a group of armed terrorists who want to shoot it out, the plastic in the styer tends to start melting if used for full auto rapid fire and you use two 50 round clips, at 100 rounds it will be time to pull out the 9mm side arm cause the Styer is nothing but a puddle of molten plastic.

Give me coffee and no-one gets hurt!
