condition zero/SOCOM/metal gear....." as opposed to the number of guys that said "we used that in a cross training exercise with the FFL" its a
stupid weapon, its French. the only good thing the french have done is the FFL. if you dont know, look it up. real soldiers there, the only men in
France.
Really,
As far as I can tell it's the most stable assault rifle on full auto out there, allowing much higher accuracy than the M16/M4 or AK.
If everything the French have done is so bad why did the US use the French 75mm quick-firing cannon? Even up to putting them in their WW2 tanks?
Why did the NVA continue to use the MAT 49 smg for so long after supplies of PPSh became available?
Why have so many air-forces chosen Dassults?
While it may be my personal opinion that the only thing the French have ever given the world is the metric system at least I came to that conclusion
ten years before Sep 11.
Get off the French-bashing, it's old and boring.
So they weren't there to help you in Iraq. Where was the US in 1940?
