G3 vs World: Trials of Modern Battle Rifles in Pakistan

[AZ_HighCountry]

I'd go for FN Scar-H,but what do I know. Agree that's one very powerful round. Very powerful. Kicks like a mule,but you can't fail with that caliber.

I shoot 7.62x51 out of an M1A (commercial M14). I disagree with your assessment.

How does it feel out of an M14? (essentially M14,right?)

Recoil is no different, if anything less than that, of my M1 Garand. I shoot issue or issue-equivalent ammo in both. Out of my FAL, even softer because of the adjustable gas plug.

YOU HAVE FAL?!

I happen to have two. One is an Aussie-issue L1A1. The other is a Congo variant with a paratrooper stock. I like them because they eject the brass into the middle of next week.

Right arm of the free world!

Back on topic, as I said in a related thread, there is only so much that can be done to "modernize" the G3. For now, it continues to serve with distinction. Still, at some point, militarises that still carry it will have to make a hard decision regarding replacement.
