The A2 actually ironed out most of the problems the A1 had and is very serviceable irl, especially after the Daniel Defence rail system was added to the front to make it more modular. It was so serviceable, in fact, that the A3 is essentially the same gun with a full length picatinny rail at the top. The bad reputation of the A1 cast a big shadow that still looms over the SA80 today, whereas the gun can easily compete with the M4. Also the reason for the unicorn in the logo is because that's Scotland's national animal :)

My dad was deployed with the SA80 during the Gulf War. He used the A1 variant. He stated, that on many times as soon as he and his buddies had the chance to pick up an Iraqi AK and vest, they would. Why would you run around with a 5.56 that doesn’t work in sand when you can run a 7.62 that would run in a sandstorm. Refuses to tell me HOW he got his hands on an AK, but there’s a photo of him and his pals chillin with ak’s, pkp etc. My cousin has used the A2, says it’s a beautiful weapon and he owes his life to it. Now I’m set to be deployed with the A3 in a few months (if all goes well) so I’ll try to remember to give my opinion on that!

Well that and they issued it ammo that used cheap powder that Armalite specifically told them not to use. By the way the "self cleaning" thing wasn't a mistake it was a misstatement. The AR is a Self Clearing design, the gas system blasts debris out of the gun, preventing dust, dirt and mud from infiltrating the locking lugs. Basically using bad powder is the primary way you kill an AR, it won't die just from dirt and mud.

British military still uses the L85A2. The “a3” isn’t a new iteration of the weapon, just updated parts that replace the barrel housing from what I can tell. I’ve seen some people say it’s now one of the best rifles on the planet, but then the likes of Christian Craighead (former 22 sas) says it’s awful, though, he could be referring to the A1 - which is obviously notoriously bad.

Went to an open-day fire range event a few years back. They had a bunch of guns and if you had any credentials of any kind(from a hunting license to proof of owning a rifle) you could shoot their rifles. There were like 10 Ak platforms, couple m4's, Ar-15's, M16 yada yada the typical stuff. But there was one A2 available to shoot that NO ONE had touched the entire day. Not gonna lie, I picked this bad boy up and was very surprised by how it felt at both a resting and a firing position. It was comfortable and it felt like my shoulder had a lock on the entire rear section of the platform. It fired beautifully and ever since then I have always wanted one, or at least one to modify to my liking.

They used these when I was in the cadets (basically watered down,army training for under 18's). it was the sight that put me off. The blanks we were firing acted like real rounds (naturally).. but the weapon felt very "janky", almost as if it had a loose plate of metal that shuddered on trigger pull. Maybe it was that which put me off following into the actual army.. at that time it would've been the middle East, where the US were rocking M4's or variants of it, and the insurgents were using everything from AK's to barely refurbished odds and ends, from wherever they could scramble the parts. This gun is not what I'd want to be using.
