do you not or can you not get a housing and ejector so that the casings are ejected to the left rather than the right. which could be given to left handed people, such as myself i'm sure they're others to be used under such circumstances

Looks like an M-16 with a "picadilly" rail(Yes I know thats not what they are really called) and Diopter sights.Originally posted by mutter nutter
You can get this in the Steyr,but the Irish defence forces decided not to go with this option after much intensive testing by real soldiers. The logic being that a left handed firer could adapt.Originally posted by Infantry Sandbag
Sticking your body around a corner to let off a few shots,whether it be a left or right handed corner,is not very good for ones life expectancy.

partly yes it is, but they've improved on it, enough so that it's being run in the re-opened XM-8 competition I believe, but I'd agree with what was said before if a new rifle was being chosen the G-36 range would be the best choiceOriginally posted by Goldie fishDr. Venture: Why is it every time I need to get somewhere, we get waylaid by jackassery?

I think the Steyr is fine for now. There are no significant benefits that other weapons have.
I wouldn't go for the G36 range. Experience has shown them to have problems with accuracy in high temperature countries and after firing off 100+ rounds due to the material the barrell is made from. They've changed back to the "old" G3 type barrell in the 416.
HK developed the 416 because SF units were complaining about accuracy and reliability problems with the G36 range in Afghanistan and Iraq, and also that the G36 would not easily adapt to equipment add ons. I wonder will they extend the benefits of the 416 to a new range of rifles as well?Comment
