Of course I do. I'm the most knowledgeable guy to ever walk this planet and from my mouth springs eternal wisdom. Where I tread. flowers blossom and trees begin to grow and eternal pice follows me...

You know I use smilies to make clear my remarks aren't exactly meant serious? I was just kidding.

I'm puzzled- some of their equipment is really high end and some is old as dirt.

Also National Guard seems better equipped then everyone else, including SF.
 
Altough in the picture is stated National Guard,troops are actually SF troops and indeed G3A3-G3A4 which is the standard assault rifle for Greek Army(except SF) is
somehow dated but still a good weapon.
Personally i dont find it difficult to score up to 90% in a A1 target(without scope&If the weapon is zeroed) firing from 300 meters which is the standard range for small arms practice in Greek army..
 
Being killed with a musket ball or a new bullet ...one is still dead.
