Germany actually made a bad firearm. I am shocked.

Like some of their weaponry in WW2. Advanced, accurate, and well put together. So well put together that the parts froze and became inoperable in Russia.

Maybe they will revert back to the Sturmgewehr 44, while they work out the bugs?

THe G3 was certainly good enough. They should have stayed with it.

Back in June, there was an article about the G36

http://bearingarms.com/awkward-moment-hk-fanboys-find-germans-call-g36-rifle-doesnt-shoot-straight/

The rifle’s point of aim shifts when the barrel heats up under sustained use. Like in, you know, combat...

Thread needs pics;

It looks like a big rifle in some pics and the standard sights are shite (although everyone is going to an optical sight now) .

I have an American made G3 type rifle ‘PTR-91’. I totally love it! It’s dead on accurate with open sites, and packs a serious punch with the 7.62NATO(.308). It was a true thrill to open that box and seeing a brand new, pristine HK91(G3) rifle new in the box. That rifle has been like a dream come true. I’d advise everyone to get one, if you can!

I’ve never tried the G36.

Why not adopt the FN SCAR?

It can't be bad. Tom Cruise used it to shoot down a drone.

(do I really need to add a sarcasm tag?)
