 @ba9e78e1 @LoliHat @:hoshino_smug:  Modernized and Supped up FAL, only issue is that it has some User issues, >Lack of a Forward assist meaning the rifle would need to be disassembled in combat if a malfunction were to occur

 @ba9e78e1 @LoliHat @:hoshino_smug:  It just need a Forward assist or a way to Mortar it,  it is definitely a child of the FAL with alot of that platform's problems, especially the paratrooper version, troops complaining it snags.

Honestly I don't know why they would want to replace the M16A2, just commission an American Company to make you a version of the M4A1, it's quite possibly the best combat rifle on the planet

 @I don't have a Negativity Bias @ba9e78e1 @LoliHat I think being able to develop their own domestic arms industry is a good thing, unlike the french who are planning to replace the famas with eh hk416 because they can't make new famas.

 @:hoshino_smug:  @LoliHat @ba9e78e1 I think licensing stuff out and creating your own version of it would solve the issue
