Did anyone notice that every soldier has a pistol?

Doesn't every soldier in the CF get issued a Hi-Power? Honestly, I always assumed they would be.

Either way, if it's in 5.56mm... I'd take one. Not for $3000, but for $1000-1500 I would consider it.

Don't know why people have such a boner for the clear mags... I think they look stupid.

I dont care where it comes from or if there's a fairy burned in the stock, as long as it's unrestricted and cheap!

besides, maybe the Mexicans have figured out how to deal with H&K's cracked receiver problem.
 
I like it. And if its a decent piece then I think that might just mean that the mexicans have a higher tech service rifle than we do!

Hell, if the price is right, maybe we should scrap the C7A2 mid life upgrade program and go with this, they could sell us the tooling! We cant seem to get parts for our own crap anyway.
 
Think that they should have used a system to use US M16 mags rather than the HK type. only for logistical purposes.
Otherwise I am intererested learning more about the FX-05 '' Xicoatl''

Oh yeah... because Mexico is just rusty shanty towns and taco shacks selling Americanized Mexican food that's overcharged by 300% to rip-off stupid Yankees.

Mexico wouldn't have any Engineers, Architects, Designers and skilled technicians. Mexico wouldn't just happen to have normal people like you and I but only a bunch of hairy 4th grade drop outs that mow lawns and shingle roofs.

Now if you'll excuse me I have to club baby seals to death and then spear some narwhals to stock up on blubber eh. At least the beer makes it go down good eh.

Aint stereotyping fun?

Damnit... I want one. And I'm not letting some serpent god on my mag well put me off it either.
 
I've never marched in a military parade before, but is your rifle supposed to be on safe?

Mind you the mag does look to be empty and his finger is off the trigger.
 
It looks like the rifled portion of the barrel is no more than 10" long at most. That will result in low velocity, poor trajectory and inadequate terminal ballistics. At best it is a close quarters weapon.

more than probably the gun cannot be put on safe unless its #### (like the AR) and more than probably they have a PROVE safe procedure that involve dry fiering the gun
