andrewza: When i switch to my pistol, i take cover because it has a minimal range compared to the ak. I CAN STILL SURVIVE if my pistol is with me. Close quarters, roof searching, heck those soldiers go through a lot of those. You expect me to climb a ladder while holding my ak. Lol |

I would have pasted a link here but i don't know how to go about it. All i'm saying is that the issue of sidearms for the nigerian infantry should not be overlooked. How many loaded magazines do they carry to war? Do you even know? Those vehicles do protect them but for how long. A well aimed R.P.G can take out any vehicle, choppers. When those happens, then what? I start relying on my ak alone?? Gentlemen i don't see it that way. Sidearms should be a must not just for special forces but for every single soldier whether technical, special forces, etc. Thanks |

Perfectdanny: .And what you cant take cover with out a pistol? How will the pistol help at all? While a pistol is useful in confided spaces I do expect you to climb a laser with a AK, I don't expect you to shoot from a ladder. |

Fidha254: It brought home yet again how expensively the Yanks fight their wars. In the first episode, the 8-man patrol up in the mountains comes under Tali fire. They are out-ranged by PKMs, and no-one thought to carry the Patmor. So they take cover, get on the net and wait for 15 minutes for ordnance to be dropped on the Tali position! In the 2nd ep, when the base comes under fire, aerial assets -presumably UAVs - can pinpoint the enemy positions, but I didn't see a single mortar launched: MATV-carried TOWs instead. (By the way, Oshkosh can't have been pleased how the MATV performed against the IED). The joys of being a superpower!

frumentius: Dude, those videos are usually uploaded on Youtube. It has nothing to do with piracy. It allows for convenience, and i'm able to watch them at a spare time. All the military documentaries i've watched are gotten off Youtube. Allow the man to answer. |

andrewza: Lol at your comment. I'm sure you don't comprehend my earlier statement. 1. Who told you so at bolded? 2. Please check google very well if possible go to the next page. According to us soldiers, they said WE CHOOSE NOT TO GO WITH PISTOLS based on individual reasons. We have u.s soldiers all over the world. Look at their complete kit when on the field or on duty. Then come back and tell me. Even south africa issues sidearms to their police officers talk less of soldiers. |

Perfectdanny: You are talking to a South-African navy sailor, and he has adequately answered your questions as to why Infantry men don't get issued with side-arms. Now quit the argument about side arms, you are derailing this thread. 4 Likes |

Perfectdanny: 1Ex and serving US solders have told me this. Do you think every logistical truck driver type, mechanic, Artillery men, Air craft mechanic, Extra Extra carries a pistol? Pistols are issued to those who needed it when they needed. Not every one is a infantry or a similar front line solder. Why would I check Google when I was told not every solder carries a pistol. Yes cops get pistols but they don't have a rifle ready in there hand and there and those solders that that need to get pistols. You think the chef in Goma is cooking food with a pistol strapped to his waist, or how about the personal clerk think he is behind his PC with a pistol. Even when they go to main the perimeter, Go on patrol or leave the base they not carrying pistols they carry rifles. |
