Same with Australian SASR, British SBS, SAS, Danes, Norwegians, French LRRPS are using them, most of the Eastern European nations dumped their garbage AK's in favor of M4's. I lost track of everybody that's using them.
I cant speak for the other nations but the bog standard L85A2 is a hell of a lot heaver than any thing in the AR range. Which counts a lot when you are humping a great weight fast.
L85A2 4.98kg (with loaded magazine and optical sight)
Demarco C8 2.7 kg empty w/o magazine 3.2 kgloaded with 30 rounds
