Of course they do not want it. Just like they did not want the .280 British which is more like they are looking at now. And they did not want the FN-FAL either but then went with the M16.

It's telling that the SAS never took well to the L85A1 or A2, and continued to use Diameco AR15s and Colt Commandos as their primary shoulder-fired weapons in the assault rifle role.

Same with SBS, Australian SAS, and several other commando units that have the freedom to choose whatever weapons they will actually use.
