The SAR-21 is a major weakness until DSTA improves it...
1.) The crosshairs are too thick. Reduce them and add a
distinctively coloured death-dot instead please.
2.) Absolutely hate the fire-selector. Prefer the nice Heckler-and
Koch-type one on the CAR-15/M-16's that I've used. If you need
full-auto, thumb can easily flick the switch. You can also unsafe
and fire the CAR-15/M-16 one-handed tucked under your arm if the
other hand is unavailable/out of action.
3.) Our current SAR-21's can't take M-16 mags without the adaptors!
Hello? Things get lost! Esp wth NSmen and NSF's! Lose the adaptor
on the battlefield and a Sporean NSman is screwed!
4.) The magazine catch is horrible! Let's count the steps in
reloading.
CAR-15 carbine.
1.) Press right index finger on mag drop. Left hand grab new mag
from SBO.
2.) Slam in new mag and slap the bolt release.
3.) Ready.
SAR-21 (and other bullpups)
1.) Right hand hold weapon. [b]Left pull out old
mag.
2.) Left pull out fresh mag from SBO.
3.) Slam in new mag and hit bolt release.
4.) Ready.
There you go! 1 freaking second wasted! Yucks![/b]

technologies company.DSTA is incharge of ammunition and armament
procurement regarding the SAR21 its a join effort,making sure the
