current weapon (after the G3) is the G36, obviously an advanced G3 version. I didn't have much time to chat about the subject today, so if anyone wants to know ammo types, more details, whatever - ask and I'll find out.
Much information on the G36 is readily available on the Web. It is not actually very similar to the G3, except for the roller-delayed action used by HK in most of their semi-automatic rifles.
The caliber is, as per current NATO expectations, 5.56 mm.
thanks for the update. I'm not much into weapons, so I only got the model number and from there concluded - obviously wrong - that it was based on the G3.
