Picture of the G3 SG/1 is incorrect, the German army G3 SG/1 was fitted with a smaller non illuminated scope on a H&K proprieatary "claw" type mounting, and has compicated "set" trigger mechanism visible as a second "trigger" behind the normal trigger.


G3A3 photo is wrong

The G3A3 photo with the green furniture has been bugging me for a while. The G3A2-A3 rifles always had metal lowers. The Navy style all plastic lower is not an HK G3A2 or A3 lower. That photo is of the American clone, the Vektor arms copy of the G3/HK91. I'm going to photograph a REAL G3A3 soon with the proper furniture since that shot really irritates me.

- Heh, I didn't even think about whether it was entirely genuine or not, though something did seem off about it. Well, get us the right picture then damn it! :b StanTheMan 15:59, 1 September 2010 (UTC)

HK21

HK21 should have its own page since it has four variants of its own.--SB2296 05:28, 26 March 2010 (UTC)

Fully automatic?

Is the g3 when fired on fully automatic jumpy and hard to control like the FAL? Since both fire the same round.--P226

depends on your level of training and experience. I have friends who use M14, G3, FN FAL in full auto competitions and they all find the various rifles controlable. Yeah the recoil is heavier than a 5.56mm weapon but for most combat ranges the weapons are effective on full auto. Rockwolf66 18:16, 13 July 2010 (UTC)

HK51?

There are only a few pages on the site that feature this gun so it isn't really that important, but isn't the term HK51 wrong? The original manufacturer of this variant was the UK fire FR Ordnance who made three variants (MC51, MC51SD and MC51K) for British special forces. It was later manufactured by Imperial Defence Services after they bought up FR Ordnance. Isn't the term HK51 just a made up name for after-market modifications to G3s to replicate the MC51, so surely the original term is more appropriate? --commando552 17:35, 31 August 2011 (CDT)

Some people seem to have the notion that the "MC51" was an airsoft original, so you'll have to deal with them first before this gets setteled. --HashiriyaR32 19:12, 31 August 2011 (CDT)

PSG

Since the PSG is its own weapon and not a Variant of the G3, doesn't it warrant it's own page? --Zackmann08 08:17, 25 December 2011 (CST)

Not really, it's still fundamentally a G3, just with some modifications. --Jeddostotle7 9:52, 1/18/2011 (PST)
