    So I understand. A design flaw if ever there was one.

    The problem with much of the equipment issued to UK troops is, it was all designed to be used in a European war against the forces of the Warsaw Pact.
    The thought of all these tiny wee desert countries becoming a threat never entered into central goventment's mind.

    I do love the P90, but for a sheer classic, I've got a soft spot for the dear old Tommy gun.

    To the night and its stars, to the here and now with who we are.

    Another sunrise with my sad captains, with who I choose to lose my mind,
    And if it's all we only pass this way but once, what a perfect waste of time.

      Why wouldn't one love a hard-hitting solidly built gun. They don't make them like that anymore.

        Amen to that, brother Panther.
        You hit someone with a .45 cal slug, they go down, they stay down...

            I am just going to take this opportunity to reiterate my point having to do with the coolness of the P90.

            IT IS SUPER FREAKING COOL! lol

              I think that ppl underestimate the sa-80. it's a really good gun. It could do with a little re-design here and there, toughening it up, fixing the desert problems, etc, but overall it's excellent. some ppl have a problem with the saftey but i thought it was alright...

              an yes, the p90 is cool, the p90 is great and we should probably retrain the british army to use the p90, but until the entire army wants to play stargate games, we can probably expect that to happen about... never. sorry owen. damn shame tho...

                  I was watching the movie Equillibrium the other night, for about the eighth or ninth time.
                  I love the pistols the Cleric's carry, and the funky "up the sleeve reload" bit. I know it wouldn't work IRL, but hey - it's cool...

                          UMP. A reduction of firepower? How appealing.

                            Alas, I'm using a public computer and can't post pictures, sorry.
                            However, if you do a Google Image search, for "Grammaton Cleric" you'll see some pretty pictures of their weapons.

                              my favourite gun is the P90 (fam mas i think its also known as although isnt that a french or russian model im not too sure) its lightweight versatile and rapid fire no wonder its used in almost every battle!

                                no, no, no. The FA MAS is a different weapon altogether, used by the french (and made by a french company). St-Etienne manufacture the FA MAS, Fabrique nationale, a belgian company, manufacture the FN-P90
