The Secret Code of
L119A1The Secret Code of
L119A1
Counter-Terrorism is the hottest security topic in many countries all over the world. It's a long long road, which as claimed as "The Longest War" of this new century. This war is not a regular war, we are not fighting for land or money as before. We are just fighting for our security. Nobody knows how is the so-called victory but we still have to fight.
Terrorist could appear anytime and anywhere. With this factor, Regular Force is no longer able to secure us behind the wall, or we can never safe ourselves by only staying in the castle. It's a special war, that's why we need Special Force.
Special Force needs Special Weapon, the British Special Force, has disclosed that there is a new weapon on their hands, listed as L119A1. What about it?
L119A1 is acutally the Canadian Diemaco C8SFW. Building upon the C8 and C8A1, Diemaco created the Special Forces Weapon (SFW), which provides an interesting combination of ideas. Featuring a longer, 16-inch barrel of a heavier profile than the C8/A1, the SFW is designed to provide a fire support capability in carbine form. The profile of the barrel is not uniform, oddly enough bulging out at the end, whereas the M4 profile barrel steps down. The front sight base is strengthened for mounting of the H&K AG-C grenade launcher. The British Ministry of Defense acquired a number of SFWs, primarily for the SAS, giving them the Land Force designation L119A1. Because of the barrel profile, another Diemaco specific mount is required at attach the M203 grenade launcher (though the British have decided to use the HK AG-C/L17A1).
