Remember the SLR
The latest rifle adopted by the British Army – the new Belgian FN.30 – is demonstrated at the Hythe School of Infantry, in Kent. Lieutenant-Colonel Dickson speaks about the merits of the new self-loading rifle, before handing over to his sergeant-major for a demonstration of how to field strip the new weapon.
