RE: WeaponsI saw one in ‘98 at the CTC. One of the instructors on my
RESO Ph I managed to get his hands on one for a bit and he brought it in
to show us. It was more for novelty than instructional purposes, but we
were not about to complain. I also believe I saw one on the rifle of a
Canadian soldier in one of the first pictures out of Kosovo when we
deployed there. It was in the Globe and Mail or the National Post, if
someone is keen enough to start looking for it.

That is correct. Troops from my Unit conducted trials on them in
Connaught Ottawa last year.
