Capt. Willard 0 Posted January 30, 2004 Share Posted January 30, 2004 This is the only weapon from the orginal GR armory that I can't find, fitted with a 40mm GL. I don't know if this is an option, but I like the weapon and this would make it even better. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
WytchDokta 6 Posted January 30, 2004 Share Posted January 30, 2004 This is the only weapon from the orginal GR armory that I can't find, fitted with a 40mm GL. L85A1 w/GL aint in the original GR armoury. The standard L85A1 is in the original GR armoury. I think the L85A1 w/GL has been done in some mods. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
larocket83 0 Posted January 30, 2004 Share Posted January 30, 2004 i think thats what he meant. He knows the L85A1 w/gl wasnt in GR. He's saying the standard L85A1 was, and is looking for a modded one with the grenade launcher. (Its confusing because he put a comma in the wrong spot). But I dont know which mod has it either.

ogre_h 0 Posted January 30, 2004 Share Posted January 30, 2004 We're talking about this weap? I'm pretty sure British Commandos has one. There is at least one other mod that has it, but I can't think of it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Avey 0 Posted January 30, 2004 Share Posted January 30, 2004 Yeah, Brit Commandos has one, I'm sure of it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DVS1 0 Posted January 30, 2004 Share Posted January 30, 2004 A shameless plug..............DVS1's Weapons Mod has the SA80 with M203 Think Avey's right too guys, sure it was brit commando's also had one. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DWG 0 Posted January 30, 2004 Share Posted January 30, 2004 I think the L85A1 w/GL has been done in some mods. As a point of accuracy the SA80 variant fitted with the UGL (note, not an M203) is an L85A2 -- the rebuilt L85A1. Both L85A2 and L85A2/UGL were first fielded in Afghanistan.

Thumper1518 62 Posted January 30, 2004 Share Posted January 30, 2004 In case anyone noticed, the UGL pictured is an H&K AG36. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Streinger 0 Posted January 31, 2004 Share Posted January 31, 2004 I'm only guessing here, but the whole front part of the gun looks awfully like a H&K design... I know for a fact that after numerous flaw reports on SA80A1, British army took it to H&K UK to fix it. The result was SA80A2..aparently, it's much more reliable, no more reports of bolts breaking or clips falling out, but SF still complained about the wep being too loud when being chambered and locked/unlocked. Apparently a loud "click" of a weapon being unlocked or chambered can give your position away and alert the enemy in those stealthy SF operations... I think there was a rumour about British MoD thinking of replacing the weapon with G36 in year 2008. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SnowFella 8 Posted January 31, 2004 Share Posted January 31, 2004 That whole front part of the gun is acctually the mounting system for the AG36 grenade launcher, take a look at pics of a G36 with the AG36 mounted and you can tell its virtually the same forearm. And I think the designations are L85A1 and L85A2 not SA80 and SA80A2, that's atleast the army designation of the rifle Quote Link to post Share on other sites
supasniper 0 Posted January 31, 2004 Share Posted January 31, 2004 the forarm of the SA80 with the GL looks the same as the G36 because they are the same, in order to get the GL to fit HK just added the G36 forarm to the SA80 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DWG 0 Posted January 31, 2004 Share Posted January 31, 2004 I think there was a rumour about British MoD thinking of replacing the weapon with G36 in year 2008 The plan is to replace L85/86 as part of FIST, the UK's future soldier programme, but the intended replacement is the F2000 IW/LSW, basically the same weapon with an electronic sighting system (and unconnected with the FN F2000). See http://www.thalesgroup-optronics.com/pdf/F...%20brochure.pdf or http://www.sistemasdearmas.hpg.ig.com.br/s...of/soffist.html (in Portuguese, but good photographic coverage of the trials weapons). Despite the language difficulties the Brazilian site is the best I've found for open source summaries of the various future soldier programmes. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

deleyt 0 Posted February 9, 2004 Share Posted February 9, 2004 It looks odd in some way..like the M203 wasn't really meant to be for the STEYR Quote Link to post Share on other sites
