Extremely doubtful, because snipers aren't usually deployed in anti-armor roles. It would be more than likely that a sniper trained on an NTW-20 or other silly powerful rifle wouldn't be available in those situations. It's just not a standard method of deployment, and I can only think of a handful of situations where it could actually be useful.
It's a South African weapon. Of course neither the US nor Canada would deploy as such, we don't have the equipment. A .50 is just not going to cut it.
Again, you saw District 9? Blomkamp is South African, so he might or might not know something about it, but they specifically and deliberately deployed that NTW as an AT weapon.
sooo uhhh, out of a super spontaneous splurg moment I went to the gun store and decided I really wanted an AR-15...so I bought a Rock River AR-15 carbine

The overall feel is awesome, sturdy feeling construction. One guy who was buying something same time as me was saying he has one a loves it. Probably won't get to the range until 2 weeks from now :( but I look forward to it :)
Ha, that's awesome. It will shoot lovely.
Gotta love Rock River, they made a LAR-15 Pistol that was classed as an actual handgun here in Canada. Meaning its magazines are restricted to 10 rounds instead of 5 like all semi-auto rifles.
There's also no rule about using a magazine designed in one gun in another gun. So we just use LAR-15 10 round magazines in our guns that accept STANAG magazine styles now, lets us get around the semi-auto rifle 5 round limit legally. I love how stupid Canadian firearms laws are.
Hurray for impulse buys!!!
Is it one with a removable handle assemble or is it a fixed handle?
Hurray! removable, it's the model shown in that image. Loving the pistol grip on it. I almost bought the 20" barrel one (m16 version) but after feeling that grip vs the standard AR-15 grip i was like...ehh fuck it gimme this one. Also I believe he said it has a 2 stage trigger, can anyone explain the advantage of this?
Odd, usually that means you can pull it half way or so for single shots, then press it all the way to the rear for full-auto.
Hmm. I could be mistaken, but the website also says the same thing. Can't wait to take this fucker to the range :D Unfortunately won't have time until the semesters over :(
I'm pretty sure the next gun I'm gonna buy is still gonna be a Benelli M4, cause it's so awesome. Not sure if I want the adjustable/collapsible stock or not...
