Hi all,
I am hoping to write a paper for the UK Defence Forum on the UK's recent fulfillment of an Urgent Operational Requirement for Designated Marksmen rifles (L129A1 aka an LEI LM7). It will only be a short piece, but I was hoping to get some input from US Service personnel who have had experience of using DMR's in Iraq or Afghanistan to provide some background as to their utility etc. The paper will address why it has taken the UK so long to procure these rifles.
Its only in the planning stages at the minute, as I need to see what input I can get from various officials etc.
However, back on topic: does anyone know of any Designated Marksmen who frequent this forum?
Any input would be much appreciated,
