Fair point but I'm not sure a rifle really exemplifies it. They're not exactly a new innovation.
Try LRADs or microwave weapons.
It shows some connection and support that they would buy weapons from an Israeli manufacturer.
Israel is also the place where many countries put cyberwarfare money. NSO Group for example.
Unrelated to the actual point being made, that gun really just looks like a dinky pistol with way too many attachments thrown on
It’s a bullpup so the size is deceptive, the barrel length is actually on par with other full size carbines like the US’s M4
Fair enough. Still looks silly imo
The CTAR-21 seems like the cooler variant though. But those Philippines police don't fuck around, back in 2016 had one pull a shotgun on one of the girls in our tour group who he thought was stealing a phone.
Still an awesome country from my experience, even with the trigger happy police.
Yeah I mean it's terrible, and I hate to support an Israeli arms manufacturer. But at the same time I will never give up my Jericho 941. And from what I hear the AR15's that IWI produces are exceptional. I mean is there any arms manufacturer that is ethical?
