It really is time we put the old boy in a home.  The nose hair is unsightly and the drooling is getting worse by the day... ;) Congrats, happy birthday.

Train (both individual and collective) Take Leave Domestic Operations (fires, floods, etc) Other tasks     -Support to courses     -Ceremonial duties etc etc etc

Interested as well. The ND policy that is.

Yes but not while wearing the pack.  The number 2 drops the bag beside the gun pulls out the end of a belt and clips it on.  When it's time to move break the belt throw the pack on and off you go. Trying to walk around with a belt hanging between the pack and gun would be a nightmare.

I can check tomorrow but I believe a PDW remains on the table as part of SAM or the follow on projects.  My personal opinion is that I have a hard time finding a real requirement for a weapon between the C8 and the pistol. 9mm remains due to commonality, the relatively low recoil allowing for...

The convenient thing about the M&P "no trigger pull" feature is you can completely ignoe it and take it down almost like a Glock.  The inconvenient thing about this is it may be interpreted as in violation of the above requirement. That being said, I don't believe the SOR is written in stone as...

It's so nice to see your work appreciated in your own time.

Surely you jest. Also, based on the document above the Glock in current configurations is out as the trigger must be depressed to strip.

A nominal 1 MOA dot may appear considerably larger due to blooming if the brightness is turned up.  When zeroing an EOTech I tend to turn the brightness down as much as possible but in use I'll leave it a bit brighter to account for having to aim into brighter areas. Just my 2¢

By all appearances truly a principled man and a great politician.  I may not have agreed with his views but Canada would be a better place with more men like him.

It's the basis of the carriage system for the C16.  3 per system with specialized bags for the various sub-loads.

I agree unequivocally.  The interface for ISSP combined with power management are going to be key and that's not even getting into the comms backbone and COMSEC issues.

Brilliant!!! Unfortunately the 600lbs of recoil force might make it a bit hard on the "light" gunner

Ideally that 24 year old PL can instantly access up to date aerial imagery of the battlespace.  Request and direct IDF and other enablers through an intuitive interface that leverages GPS and geomatic support vice estimating the enemy grid and then push out some simple orders via overlay to...

Wait, you can get one of those?  I have been sorely missinformed.

Excellent points.  The CDEx process may (hopefully) address some of the deficiencies you have noted.

No arguments here and I won't take responsibility for the info ops campaign which was attached to the procurement.  That being said there does seem to be a general sense of dissatisfaction with the system from those with a sum total of 0 experience with it.  This is certainly in some part in...

No doubt there will be a disconnect between course content but this is just part of the growing pains of a relatively radical shift in the trg concept. In fact, this is probably a pretty good time for this as we have a large population of combat vetted MCpls where the trg/experience delta...

This thread seems to have stagnated just as the system actually gets in the hands of the lads at the pointy end.  Based on my recent experience with the C16 here are a few points that may stimulate some additional conversation. Weight:  Yes, its extremely heavy and the ammo adds even more. ...
