Your favorite weapons U.S

[O'Borg]

I'd have to say the L1A1 / FN-FAL too - I've got a character in a GURPS Black-Ops game set in 1961 who's a 40 year old former Commando, breif sojourn in SOE and reactivated with MI6 during the Korean War. His favourite long-arm is an L1A1 modified to allow full-auto, with a wooden stock rather than the GRP one (because theres no point whacking someone with a bit of plastic), then fitted with a telescopic sight and removable supressor (which on the L1A1 fits over the barrel and barely increases overall length). Otherwise he uses weapons suitable for his cover ID.
And like me, he'd also like the vintage SMLE.

I've always rather liked the Sterling SMG, probably because I grew up on a diet of old WW2 movies and thought the Sten gun was the greatest thing ever. (NB, and when I used to play online WW2 shooter Day of Defeat, for some reason the Sten gun always seemed more accurate and powerful than the German MP40. But then they also deliberately borked the Garand and K43)
