I dont think fast pack and slow pack are imaginary distinctions. While not formal doctrine they are absolutely how we actually work.

So the solution is to buy a bunch of extended rifles, or fake rifles, so we can rest the puts on the ground?

Or... we could just do carbine drill like we're supposed to.

100 percent this, i read your shot gun comment as "something to do emergency cuas" @PrairieFella I've never shot a 320 or Eagle. That said i think once you start having to do weapon transition drills then the way they get used changes to become much more deliberate. As Kevin points out a...

Theres a few options, the 320 stand alone looks good. Of course Colt makes the Eagle so i think we know what we'll get.

I think its probably just the lack of ever employing it or seeing it employed that made me gloss over it. Im also generally indifferent to section and platoon sharp shooters, Id prefer to see a CG / NLAW / what ever AT and HE projector in there myself.

From what I saw on share point both will have suppreressors, yet to see the specific optic.

Covers most of the caf, im sure well still have RCAF / RCN using C8s for a while. Which is fine frankly.

Noah's since redacted to note fuzes are included.

Well Alex McColl is a huge Gripen guy on twitter... well huge in the context of Canadian defence commentary. HT sounds like they work at DLR 5-4 outside of the gripen comments.

The only complaint is the brown mesh looks worse than black mesh. However after a full day of sledding in the mou trains, complete with a lot of digging my snowmobile out, I would dry out the base layer in not time at all. Thats on my body under layers as well.

I have the new base layers - 9.5/10
