Re: Small Arms Thread
IA should seek 100% reliability! Why settle for 99.7%? That way they will keep improving for ever. For many years I was issued the HK G3. I never, ever had a misfire. I never cleaned it, just pulled through the barrel on the shooting range and gave the mechanism a tiny bit of thin oil periodically....
