    Always thought the F1 took NATO magazines.
    It's hard to be a ACLU hating, philosophically Libertarian, socially liberal, fiscally conservative, scientifically grounded, agnostic, porn admiring gun owner who believes in self determination.

    Well, it wouldn't be the first time I've been wrong!! Maybe there was a previous edition that also took NATO mags but I am fairly sure that the G2 takes NATO mags.

    The F1 takes proprietary magazines and the G2 takes STANAG magazines.

    Was more of a question than a statement. I actually like the profile of the original rifle to the current one, but neither would be worth my time. I remember seeing the F1 in person on Bastille Day in 1984. First time I ever saw a real bullpup up close.

    The other thing that was amazing was the willingness of the French to literally destroy their roads in order to parade tanks down the street. They were actually chewing up the asphalt and leaving tank tracks in the road that were 4-6 inches deep.

    Way cool, did you happen to see the Foreign Legion Pioneers march in the parade (they would have been bearded gents wearing ceremonial leather aprons and carrying axes)?

    They were probably there, but I wouldn't have known what to look for and don't recall.
