iblawi:First of all, Ethiopian soldiers are still present in Somalia. They accomplish to bring relative peace for the people and also participated in social helping part. After 2014, the independent Ethiopian force in Somalia joined AMISOM to help the mission. Only 2 AMISOM Ethiopian soldiers died in Somalia since 2014. |

kikuyu1: It could have been this wooden burrel version on this picture. If not mistaken, it came from Israel and would have suffered from African conditions. As far as the R4/R5 is concerned, it's so reliable I've not heard of an incident where the rifle failed to operate. 1 Like

Hati13: OK Bros, thanks for everything. We can see how peaceful Somalia is today because Ethiopian troops refuse to put soldiers where the war is actually taking place. Let's forget the argument. I love Ethiopian girls anyway.

Dogshyte I've shot my R-4 so hot the paint came off it. Once I set the front part of my sling on fire and burned my fingers. Never had a problem with shooting it hot apart from the handguard melting, but then , if you're going to get it hot you'd have the bipod out. Believe me, SF vets can be just as full of bullshit stories as anyone else. All machined receivers get hotter than stamped ones. Doesnt mean the gun will malfunction. The lube will start to burn off though, so you'll end up with a dry gun. I've never heard of the inferior metal theory. I wonder why the Israelis sourced the steel blend for their Merkava from the RSA if we didn't know anything about metallurgy. As the double feeding R-4. That happens when you load 35 rounds into the 35 round mag. They just call it a 35 round mag.You're supposed to download it to 30. I guess, being an SAS man he though he didn't have to read the manual and wanted those 5 xtra rounds for making headshots. Ps. Just as a character reference. This guy was being investigated for child porn before he died. kikuyu1: 3 Likes |

nemesis2u: Lol - IIDF (Indian Internet Defence Force) out in strength! Your reaction times are amazing! Let's get to the nitty-gritty: Terrible QC (quality control), sub-standard materials (stocks, furniture made out of non-fluoropolymers that degrade under UV) it's made from 4 different metals that react differently under harsh conditions, it has issues with its gas system, the magazines are made from sub-standard materials that crack and shatter Also - it's combat history 1. During the conflict—waged over the disputed and mountainous Kargil district in the province of Kashmir—the Indian troops’ rifles jammed up, and their cheap, 20-round plastic magazines cracked in the cold weather. To make a terrible weapon worse, the Insas had a habit of spraying oil directly onto the handler’s face and eyes. Designed to shoot in semi-automatic and three-round burst modes, some soldiers would pull the trigger, and the gun would unexpectedly spray rounds like a fully automatic. 2. Then in 2005, Maoist rebels attacked a Nepalese army base. The Nepalese troops had Insas rifles bought from India. During the 10-hour-long battle, the rifles overheated and stopped working. The Maoists overran the base and killed 43 soldiers 3. India’s Central Reserve Police—which uses the rifle—finally had enough. The CRPF is a counter-insurgency force tasked with fighting Maoist rebels known as Naxalites in several eastern states. “We have sent a proposal to the government that all Insas rifles with the force be replaced by AK rifles,” CRPF general director Dilip Trivedi told the Times of India. “The Insas has a problem of jamming. Compared to AK and X-95 guns, Insas fails far more frequently.” INSAS is know, globally, amongst gun enthusiasts as being a p.o.s To be clear, I am not doubting that a well made INSAS is a good rifle. I am criticising the QC issues that crept I during manufacturing 3 Likes |

kikuyu1: Double-feeds and stove-piping with R4's, Galils, AK-5s and RK-62's all pertain to issues with the ammunition. Brass v steel cased, which isn't an issue with FN-FAL or R1. Having read the link, the story is based in the late 1970s... Which is when the R4 was introduced, hence it's highly likely that there were teething issues. |
