I still wonder why all our things in this country always have K-leg someone should correct me if I'm wrong, is it a sin if the authorities do a radical change with respect to weaponry just negodu the kinda rifle NA marksmen are using abi are we under international arms embargo ne? me I don't understand oo, is it a taboo to use sophisticated sniper rifle such as Blaser R93, Saki TRG etc, if it is too expensive to rearm the entire military with a grade A-weapon such as Tavor series/ M series or a higher version of Kalashnikovs, it shouldn't be difficult to properly equip a small specialized unit such as the Snipers. We're quick to raise shoulders as giant if Africa but honestly we can't face the Egyptian or Algerian army in warfare, South Africa is even out if it sef. I think it's high time the FG do government to government purchase of equipments if sourcing same from third parties is proofing difficult or better still outsource the reorganization of the military to the Russians or Israelis ( that is if pride will allow us) Saudi and Egypt did same, even with the level of expertise of the Israelis they still do collabo with USA, India and even codedly with Russians. We should sign the godammn bilateral agreement ( a serious one oo) with any of the world powers. 4 Likes |

Xbee007:Yet the US still uses the M14 and variants ugo4u you do know the Algerians and Egyptians still use the AKM and variants right Its the long M16A1s &A2s the Senegalese use that's cool abi (The black finish ) Sniper Rifles like the Steyr and Dragunovs are for niche roles. You are free to tell me any other reliable equal Are we more concerned about aesthetics or reliability? The same Tavors that look tacticool are being dumped for Bulgarian AR-1 & Beryls So I ask again, are you more concerned about aesthetics or reliability? 6 Likes |

bidex111:I agree that the Beryl and other Ak variants in service are more modern( material wise) but they add little improvements over the regular AKM. And these improvements are only felt by specialized troops This is my opinion sha ![]() 3 Likes |

ugo4u:Training with multiple countries is good, it will improve your skills. But Saudi & Egyptians having expertise at level of Israel is a joke. They only know how to buy weapons. They can't make them, can't copy them and most important, can't use them. Their forces are among worst trained in world. https://www.meforum.org/441/why-arabs-lose-wars 2 Likes |

giles14: ![]() ![]() ![]() The war in Yemen has exposed their incompetence, infact the Egyptians will overrun them within a week without the backing of super powers. Infact the Saudi Arabia situation further proove the notion that no matter the most modern equipment you acquire if you don't have the requisite know-how and discipline to maintain or use them you're as senseless as someone bringing a knife to a gun fight. 4 Likes |

slimthugchimee2: The AK47 will never be swapped out for the Beryl M762 because the leadership of the military in Nigeria are mostly there to enrich their pockets and not think. There's so much money being pumped into DICON and it is mostly the top military guys who share the loot. Imagine still manufacturing AK47s (OBJ - actually Chinese variant 56) with metal and wood! Weight is a big problem for soldiers all around the world and I won't even mention differences in weapon shoot accuracy. AK47 is obsolete! There are better AK variants and the Beryl is also a good option since the handling and magazine are similar to that of the AK. I mean, how do we send out men to war without a secondary weapon? I won't even mention the limitations in number of magazines issued to the infantry. I won't even mention other lacks such as communication devices which is a BIG DEAL as well. Oh well, Nigeria my country. |

Re: Battle Field Discussion (picture/video) Of African Military . by ugo4u: 2:10pm On Feb 09, 2019 |
giles14:Yes sir!! they have an annual defence budget of about $4billion. Those guys ain't poor oo, though they might not have the spending might of the Saudis but believe you me, with their acquisitions over the years and manpower development Saudis stands no chance against them. Even the last war they had with Israel was almost a stalement with casualties of over 17000 men on both sides which saw them forcing the Israelis to negotiate a deal that saw them reclaim the Sinai that was captured by Israel in the Six day war.. |

ugo4u:lol which statement. Israel fought a war on 2 fronts and was still able to whoop the ass of the Egyptians and the Syrians even with massive soviet aid. the Israeli army was 70 km from Cairo when Sadat called the american secretary of states Kissinger to negotiate a cease fire. the only gain Sadat had was foot hold in the Sinai region but the 3rd Egyptian army was surrounded on all sides with the Israeli army on the other side of the Nile and no way for supply by sea because the Israeli navy had beaten the Egyptian navy. the only hope of the Egyptian 3rd army was port Said. So don't ever say the Egyptians fought a war to stalemate with Israel. Even today there are rumors going around that the Israeli airforce help bombed Islamist hideouts in Sinai. 4 Likes |
