Now on another note, having seen and worked with the Rangers, I can tell most of them are very good shots and very good at handing a bolt action rifle and 30.06 is very hard hitting round, the rangers will it taken hunting often. And any weapon and ammo that can take down a Bull Moose or Polar Bear is good enough to take on troops! Also let add that Rangers know the area and really good hunters, for some of them it’s how they live. So that soviet patrol that the rangers do run into might not want to give chase if the Rangers kill a few with long range shots. Also outfiting the Rangers with a new weapon would be a huge under taking, by the time Twilight rolls around also many of the rank file of the army know the C7 not the C1A1, only the more senior soldiers could be used to train the rangers, in past the rangers were only given about two weeks of training and most of that was on the Lee Enfield Rifle. Unlike the 207th Infantry Group in Alaska, the Rangers are not members of any military branch, but at the time of the war they would have fell under the Chief of Reserves and Cadets who is under the Vice Chief of Defence Staff. They are allowed to elect there own Patrol Leaders and Assistant Patrol Leaders, who wear the rank of Sergeant and Master Corporal. Support of the Military comes from a few Military Officers and NCO’s who oversee training and Admin and Pay. In short they more useful finding airline crashes and provided advice, they lack alot of military training, IE tactics, modern weapons, displine ect and they have no leadship behond the patrol leader. So given them moden weapons give their role and function dose make alot of sense Anyway food for thought
