Hope you have a good arm on ya, I doubt I'd be any good with the nades in the shape I'm in now. I could use some exercise.

I saw this great helicopter assault demonstration at the CFB Comox Armed Forces Day/Airshow. I think it was the Canadian Scottish Regt. that put it on, can't quite remember now, I do remember that the birds were from the 408th Squadron out of Alberta. It was great, complete with blank gunfire an all, I'll have to post some of the pics and vids I took from the show on here sometime. Those exercises look like the best part of training.

The Carl Gustav is pretty big isn't it? Don't think it would be fun carrying that and all it's ammo around on patrols.[/quote:a19a3]

Carl G weighs 16KG as is an ass to carry around.

On my ex I probably went through 2 boxes which is 400 rounds of blank ammo on the C9, and I wasn't even a C9 gunner. It just so happened that we got bumped when I was watching the line with the support weapon. Fun stuff to unload a belt.
