StrangeRanger Posted July 11, 2023 Report Share Posted July 11, 2023 If Wikipedia is to be believed their Special Ops group uses the M14 EBR variant but their standard service rifles are NATO-spec HKs in 5.56. That doesn't explain the M-14's presence as ceremonial rifles unless they are simply left over from their initial conversion to Western weapons following the collapse of the USSR Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OhioBrett Posted July 15, 2023 Report Share Posted July 15, 2023 As noted above, we sent them a bunch of M14s in the 90s. And they look better than G36s. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
