Its possibly the new uber nature friendly bullets they are using.

Shocking news:
"The Norwegian Army uses nature friendly bullets, but they also kill the user"

To sum the story up for those that are not Norwegian

Soldiers are reporting health issues after firing the HK 416

They believe it has something to do we the new inviromental friendly ammo

Norway had a lot of the old ammo to sped before they could start to use the new ammo, the old ammo was 7.62mm NATO, and the HK uses 5,56mm NATO all of wich is lead/leed/led (not sure how to spell it) free in the Norwegian army.

The fact that the AG3 is still beeing used with the normal ammo is why this has not been reported before now

to top it of: The new ammo has so many problems that the soldiers in Afghanistan is not allowed to use it

so no need to implement the fact that the soldiers would fell ill and throw up after about five mags ingame

(I just figured it would be annying to not realize what the story was about, especially when concerning such a cool rifle as the HK 416 )


And by the way Zimmer, the pic you use as sig MIGHT be copyrighted by Torgeir Haugaar. (I might be mistaken, so do not remove it before you check) but i am pretty sure, it is either he or "Forsvarets Forum" which ownes the copyright

Thanks for the clarification though.

M3x & Magazine Updates:

Ok, it's have been a long time since my PC broken up. Now it's "fixed" and i can get somethings in some places. To finish the HK-416 i decided to start by updating the old textures, i decided that after i take a look at the real pieces of the weapon, and i noticed that the Magazine is too bright related to the main body and the M3X flashlight was needing some details. Well, here is the progress:
