Greg Head Posted January 22, 2008 Report Share Posted January 22, 2008 Just thought I would let you see what an AA L85A1 looks like with different sighting options. Iron Sights Acog sight Gen 1 NVS Susat sight Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Lerch Posted January 24, 2008 Report Share Posted January 24, 2008 Hey Greg, how'd you end up mounting the SUSAT on your R85? Did you have to grind down the rail or did you buy another one? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Greg Head Posted January 25, 2008 Report Share Posted January 25, 2008 Hey Greg, how'd you end up mounting the SUSAT on your R85? Did you have to grind down the rail or did you buy another one? I filed the rail down so that the Star Susat sight and Star weaver adaptor rail would fit, now I have to shim out the carry handle if I want to fit it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Hite Posted January 26, 2008 Report Share Posted January 26, 2008 *slight thread jackage* What do people think of their susats? i had one once, it was aoky but even thgouh it was the max adjusted to the left (or right rememebr) it still woudln't zero. I sold it eventually, nbut i fancy getting another, jsut wanting to know everyones consensus to it... failing that i'll whack an acog on it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Hite Posted January 26, 2008 Report Share Posted January 26, 2008 It's strange, even on my iron sight are mxed to the left and still of target, gun doesnt really seem out of like. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
thewallhitme Posted January 27, 2008 Report Share Posted January 27, 2008 anyone else use a rds acog on their sa80? i do. sorry, ive gone sa80 nuts since i heard we are replacing our cadet rifles with semi auto sa80s. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
tom lawson Posted January 27, 2008 Report Share Posted January 27, 2008 sorry, ive gone sa80 nuts since i heard we are replacing our cadet rifles with semi auto sa80s. thats not happening for a while mate, probably 3 or 4 years.. at least thats what it'll be (ish) for my CCF contingent Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Lerch Posted January 28, 2008 Report Share Posted January 28, 2008 (edited) Yes the sling is setup properly, even though it doesn't look it. Any suggestions though? I've got a SUSAT coming on the 31st. Edited January 28, 2008 by Lerch Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Subb0 Posted January 28, 2008 Report Share Posted January 28, 2008 (edited) I presume the tape is on front to hold the fore grip together the screw should do that (make sure its tight) the reason the sling looks dodgy is the front fore grip section should be neat aside from that sling looks to be done right looks like the cocking handle is not fully forward too but I doubt that really matters. aside from that looks fine not sure what kind of suggestions you would really want its a rifle not much you can do with it really..take it to bed with you and show it a good time? do you mean these cadet rifles? The are evil from what i've been told. look like bugger too extra big cocking handle for small hands Edited January 28, 2008 by Subb0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

That's basically what I wanted to hear...just making sure I hadn't commited any sins against the gun Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Voodoo1 Posted January 28, 2008 Report Share Posted January 28, 2008 thats not happening for a while mate, probably 3 or 4 years.. at least thats what it'll be (ish) for my CCF contingent Yeah don't hold your breath - we were told we were getting semi-autos when I was a Cadet 12 years ago...

Grim Posted January 28, 2008 Report Share Posted January 28, 2008 ha ha my cadets keep saying were getting semi auto A1s, i cant help but laugh at them. And say who told you that. the amount on varying names they say told them. I cant see the cadets getting anything near a semi auto any time soon, the government has bigger things to attend to than give kids semi auto rifles. Grim Quote Link to post Share on other sites
thewallhitme Posted January 28, 2008 Report Share Posted January 28, 2008 thats not happening for a while mate, probably 3 or 4 years.. at least thats what it'll be (ish) for my CCF contingent my SSI had a big speech about it recently on a camp. he told us "not to get to comfortable with the gp (cadet rifle) because we are getting semi auto versions in september (2008)" so, we are. not sure about everyone else. apparently the GP is illigal now, or atleast thats what ive heard.

Grim Posted January 28, 2008 Report Share Posted January 28, 2008 If it was illegal then why would other units be still using it. we have only just recieved ours back into the armoury from annual camp and i have been teaching my cadets on them most nights i get a chance.

Because i think the CCF are the lowest down in the food chain... And yeah, we're still teaching weapons handling for the GP.. cant see how it is illegal, it complies with firearms laws as far as i know... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
