    im another cadet with lots of experience with l98's and l85's(sa80's) and i also agree with the other cadet that the sa80 is very prone to jamming. it also feels horrible to hold due to how short it is and can only be operated from the right shoulder which means u have to expose urself more we looking around cover to your right (i found this out on a field craft course were my blank firing l98 ejected into my eye) it is an awful weapon and we should stuff Nato and go back to the L1a1 SLR. it is also the most expensive standard infantry weapon system of any country in the world. each unit after its H and K upgrade costs £400.

    i love the gun. i think people are basing it too much on the first rifle, the original sa80 a1. you are saying its a bad rifle because the first ones had problems.do you know how many problems the m16 had when it was first developed, people still praise it. the modern sa80 a2 is one of the best rifles today.every gun has jamms or stoppages, its enevitable once in a while but the new sa80 has almost none. still not convinced? if the sa80 is so bad, then, WHY IS IT STILL THE STANDARD BRITISH ISSUE ...

    I have used the heckler and kock SA80 A2 rifle and would say that the only thing that lets it down is that it still jams but not as much as the old model.

    The Lee enfield- heckler and kock uk L85 A2/ SA80 A2 is a good weapon........easy to use and taking apart for cleaning. Had seen some people having trouble with the gas parts but it was due to poor maintenance. Very accurate on the distances it was meant to be used. Although quiet heavy it still a very good alrounder.

    Great rifle i think the only problem i have found is that after lots of firing the gas parts get clogged with gsr and dust and can lead to jams. However apart from that it is good. L85 A2/ SA80 A2 is easy to nsp and and clean, good rifle.

    Great accuracy, reliability, and a good rate of fire, lightweight, bullpub design. The only bad point for me is the low magazine capacity. Great gun, I've used it several times (with iron sights).

    This Rifle has a really bad stigma, as I'm sure everyone has heard the horror storys of this Rifle jamming/breaking easily on operations in Iraq and Afganistan; but my friends in the Army using this reckon there's nothing wrong with it, particularly as a Target Rifle. The only universal down-side to this weapon is that if you happen to be left handed you will break your Jaw as the bullet casing will fly into your face, but regardless of that, it is a very, very pretty rifle. I personally think i ...

    I used this rifle and it is ok but it isnt great i think our army deserves better weapons 2 b honest it is poor in urban warfare because 2 shoot out from cover on the left u expose alot of your body as it can only be shot from right shoulder. i wuldnt take it for f.i.b.u.a (urban warfare) if i had a choice it would be something else all depends on the task at hand 2 what the sumthing else is.
