    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.

    Overall this is a brilliant rifle and i would not use any other assault rifle over it, it's a must have for Christmas. I gave it a 5 for value for money as it had to be upgraded to an A2 version costing more money.

    The SA80 Airsoft Spring Rifle is a very good weapon as the British army are currently using it. Very good overall. Good target shooting.

    I'm currently serving with 3 Para and I will tell ya now I much prefer using the US M-4/M-203 combo in Iraq. More reliable, better report and in my opinion better accuracy. The Lee enfield- heckler and kock uk L85 A2/ SA80 A2 is another short change for those of us serving the UK and it really makes me angry. I truly hope Tony Blair and his cronies invest in some decent kit in decent amounts for me and other servicemen over here. It plain infuriates me to think that the French have a better IWS ...

    This "wonderful" rifle, the Lee Endfield L85/SA80, was brought into service in the 80's to replace the SLR also comes with it an appalling reputation for reliability and usability. Although apparently refined by Heckler and Koch to remedy its faults, the honourable British Armed Forces are stuck with this excuse for a battle rifle. I do hear that a replacement may be in the "offing" in the near future, for the sake of our armed forces I hope it occurs sooner rather than later. Hopefully it wi ...

    On 18 October 2001 the Armed Forces Minister, The Right Honorable Adam Ingram will officially unveil the Army's modified SA80 A2. The facility will run at the School of Infantry in Warminster. The modification program addresses the reliability of the A2 and it is now one of, if not the most reliable 5.56mm weapon in the world. The A2 has undergone an exhaustive series of trials. The results of the modification program will be announced for the first time at this facility. The SA-80 f ...
