Request : HK G41

[littlefrench]

Hi !

I'm writting an article on this website : http://www.air-defense.net about the HK G41 assault rifle but I haven't got enough pictures to make its gallery and I only find "static" pictures on Google. So I would need good pictures of G41 used by soldiers/civilians.

Thanks a lot

PS : which armies/polices do use the G41 ?

I don't think G41 was ever adapted by any armed force(or even any law enforcement agancy) due to the cost factor, although it was evaluated by the Italian military in early 1980s which they didn't adapt.......

Here's some of the info from HKPRO, they even got video too:

I was about to link to the same site. And indeed to my knowledge not a single country uses the G41.

The HK33 is used by a number of countries (I know of at least one in south-america, but I forgot the name). That one is almost the same rifle (especially from a distance), but it's cheaper

Some Spanish police unit(s) use the G41, UEI I think they're called.
I'll look through my pic's tomorrow after work to see what I got for you. if I can get home at a decent time that is.

ETA: Here are a few pic's 'till then.

Wow!! I never realize there are so many users of G41!! Learn something new today......

BTW, just wondering why there isn't any arms manufacturers out there considered to make G41 clones?
