AIAW used by which nations?

[Victor Co Heather]

I'm trying to find out which nations use the AIAWs for sniper teams... Does the US use AIs?

eta:

I found this on wiki:

Bangladesh: AWSM - .338 Lapua Magnum (Bangladesh Army Sniper Team)[5]
Germany: AWM-F - .300 Winchester Magnum[6][7]
Indonesia: AWM is used by the Komando Pasukan Katak (Kopaska) tactical diver group and Komando Pasukan Khusus (Kopassus) special forces group[8]
Italy: AWM - .338 Lapua Magnum is used by the 9th Parachute Assault Regiment "Col Moschin"[9]
Netherlands: AWSM-F - .338 Lapua Magnum[10][11]
Poland: AWSM-F - .338 Lapua Magnum (GROM)[12]
United Kingdom: AWSM - .338 Lapua Magnum[13]

Australia - AW-F & AW50

New Zealand - AW

Sweden - AW ( they pushed some of the design mods of older AI rifle the PM , to become known as the AW , Arctic Warfare model )

A lot of countries use AI rifles

A better question these days is almost "Who doesn't?"

Aussies gace the 308, 338LM AI AW rifles and the AW50. That much I know.

SASR have a few different rifles aswell.

I seem to remember reading/hearing that 27 or so nations use AI rifles....but I can't remember where that was....it may even have been here?

Have you tried PM'ing Stacey?.

Good luck with the search - be sure to confirm numbers when you know for sure. Would be interesting.

I'm wondering primarily about the U.S., It would seem like a good fit, but I'm not aware of them using AIs.

I'm sure Spec Ops uses these rifles. Just low numbers of them in very specific situations. I know of the Mark 13 Mod 0 which is a Remmy 700 action (essentially a M24) in an AICS. But that's the closest thing to an AI I've heard of.
