Hum... I dunno about the G4 (sounds like Apple is due for some law suit
action). So far my friends still on duty seem to swear by the G36... except
that it has some quirks (minor stuff like some people distrusting the plasticy
ammo cartridge). But it seems that so far the forward units who got it
have found it to be OK, specially since it seems to have survived in the
hands of the legionaires so I guess they can trust that gun now.

I'll see how it goes, every few years I get to play with new toys, plus we
have some nice assortment of weapons I have to get current with (we have to
train with other non Sp army weaponry, and I believe they have some of the new
 SIGs... maybe interesting, and maybe some of the new American stuff -who knows
 maybe you guys finally learned to make machine guns *starts running from the
flame war* J/K!!!)
