not as much stuff on it, no locking lugs, and none of the odd protrusions on the bottom of hte mag that are supposed to make it easier to draw, so itll fit properly in an m4 mag pouch, i think ive got a pic of one of the e-mags in my g36 up on the maa page, doesnt look half bad

But can you fit TWO in a double M4 mag pouch?
I'll always prefer M4 mags to almost anything else, simply due to the fact the sides are completely flat, so you can stack them against each other, and pull them out without anything else coming with it. Makes for smoother and faster mag changes =p |

It's really difficult to get a government to spend millions of dollars on a new primary weapon when there's no big wars, arms races, or real necessity for a new primary.
Look at the F22. It costs billions of dollars, it was supposed to be the new big thing. They can barely justify maintaining a squadron of them. And it turned out to have a serious design flaw. And there's pretty much nowhere in the world where it's really required for service. Like Canada is buying 5th gen fighters. For what purpose? We could just buy F-18Es and be just as happy about it lol Stealth? Don't need it in -40 Single engine? Not a good idea in -40 Multi billion dollar investment? Well at least you know for a fact we're gonna ride them till they fall out of the sky. |

Well the dual engine argument in Canada saved I do believe only one or two aircraft over the entire career of the fighter. Which is why we never cared. The increased engine care and costs was not worth it.
We do need new fighters. And you can't use the. "not at war" now argument. Because when something reals out against someone with a more advanced fighter. We're fucked. It's to late to by them when we're already at war. Dont pretend it can't or won't happen. The current fighters are a joke even up north when we're watching for Russians. We don't have enough to o squat in all honestly.

F-35 =/= F-22. There are pretty distinct differences, including the fact that it's illegal to sell outside of the United States... It's a private plane for the U.S. only.
Completely agree takagari. We definitely need new fighters. Prolonging the use of our old F-18s isn't going to get us anywhere. We will fall short if it comes to dogfighting... They serve us well, but any fifth gen fighter will absolutely dominate us. Hell, most 4th gen fighters will be better. And why wouldn't we buy the F-35? The Liberals sank a chunk of cash in building and researching it in the JSF program anyway. I'm pretty happy that they are going through and buying them.

F22is a frigin money put as well. And yes banned from sale outside USA.
With that and the euro fighter Canada need to catch up. We still have a border to patrol. And with future tensions it would not be a far leap to see a larger power going to war. Lets not forget. As a member of NATO we need to pull our weight or we get kicked out. Canada doesn't get to just burry its head. Especially with the oil were sitting on now.

All I'm saying is that without the threat of going to war with any other REAL army, there's no point in NOT keeping what you got until it starts falling apart.
The M16 isn't going away for a long time lol |

Well I fix the c130 but work along side with the fighter techs on most missions as we do the air to air refilling. The c130s finally got replaced. The fighters badly need an update
