Steyr AUG

Where do they get there AUGs from? Ryan4314 (talk) 19:52, 5 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

From Steyr presumably. They were bought new in the '80s, but are now wearing out and there are rumours they might be replaced by L85A2s.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.24.31.141 (talk) 21:47, 30 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Grenade launchers and sniper rifles

According to the Times' article the FIDF are operating sniper rifles and grenade launchers, does anyone know of what type? I was assuming maybe L96 for the rifle but am not sure about the other and they are known not to follow British convention always. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 60.225.45.34 (talk) 19:10, 22 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
