Today we talked about the most rare and interesting weapons from Denel SOC. This Iconic African Manufacturer Brought Sci-Fi to Life. They inspired some of the weapons design in HALO, were featured in Ghost in the Shell, and can be seen heavily modified in The Fifth Element.

The Vector CP1 is safe to shoot. Just don't keep it chambered, and bang it on a table or something similar if ithas not had the upgrade. That was how Denel workers discovered the fault. There was a recall for a fix, and I believe those that were fixed, worked and functioned fine after. I had one of those, and I can tell you that it was a beast to carry, weight wise. Recoil was snappy but manageable, and was a mess to clean being a delayed gas blowback. Other than that, it will kill.

We have private companies that design and build equipment but they sell abroad as i think the SANDF is too bankrupt to afford any new gear.

I am a SANDF Veteran; left in 2017. Although incorrect, SANDF buys equipment at exorbitant prices which are inferior or unsuited to the continent. I was Intelligence; the night vision batteries did nit last and had such glare from the heat of African plants and animals, it was quite inoperable except for a 2 hour period from 1am to 3am.. Zuma tendered multi million Rand equipment that to operate definitely affected the budget to such an extent that the SANDF has become a para-police force more than a Army at the ready. Most of the equipment bought probably still is at the delivery points at dumps throughout Pretoria. In my 4 deployments at the borders, Mozambique and Lesotho and Swaziland/ whatever its name is now; we started deployments for the first two with Helicopters for operational vehicles and ended up with either Tata or early 2000's Hilux bakkies as primary deployment transport.. Although my regiment did receive new Land Cruiser utility (3x 50.cal Brownings and modified for border patrol vehicles) just before I called it quits. Another issue would be the salaries which have increased 110% in expenditure per unit whilst budgets have decreased overall from a 2012 high to about 35% of it. Operational training and maintenance have been the primary ways of off-setting this with decreases or stoppages to training budgets, meaning we are now overpaid and undertrained as a Force. Theres alot to complain about, but excepting war times, in my opinion the Military of South Africa has always been underfunded but capable once a threat emerged. Let us hope for peace rather and a laughing stock of an Army, rather than a strong army with a weak government.

@Skilpadjie1 Ай бұрын

My first handgun ever was the CP1. After the recall they had zero issues. However most interesting is that excess gas from barrel is directed through a small hole in barrel to a piston below to help slow down slide recoil.

@BrettinLux Ай бұрын

This brings back many memories as I carried the R1 with a shortened barrel and folding stock and a R5 for many years in the police. The CP1 was designed to be used by the SA Police detectives in civilian wear and wasn’t a bad weapon.I tested one with about 10k rounds and found it to be accurate and comfortable but definitely not reliable or safe.Women in the police carried their pistols in their handbags back then and the CP1 had no parts that could snag clothing or anything inside the bags.Had one fire full auto when I chamber a round on the range. I shot on the police combat shooting team and worked on a specialized unit where I got issued the Vector SP1 and SP2 pistols. The SP1 was chambered in 9mm for duty use and the SP was 40 S&W for competition shooting.They were both awesome weapons.

About +- 20 years ago there was a world wide recall of all Vektor Compact 1 pistols. The safety problem was rectified by Denel . A certificate regarding the safety rectification was issued by Denel with every pistol when it was returned to the owner. Said certificate is in my gun Safe. No problem has ever been experienced by me ever,and if I feel that I am in an unsafe environment I always have a round chambered. No problem whatsoever,provided that you had adhered to the recall requirement.

I was in the SA Army and was issued with both FALs and SA built R1s. One difference between the R1 and FAL is that R1s were built without the carry handle. Even FALs in SADF almost always had the carry handle removed. The only time I can remember seeing carry handles on R1s in SADF was on the heavy barrel models with a bipod which were used as SAWs. Rhodesian FALs had carry handles. They also received a lot of R1s, but I suspect those did not have the handle. So if you want your FAL or R1 to be authentic then remove the handle. That was also a difference between the Galil and R4. In fact early batches of R4 were built in Israel without the carry handle.

@Jarrow13 24 күн бұрын

My old man was issued the Heavy barrel when he was infantry as reaction and patrol in the Caprivi region. He pretty much was support LMG so the R1 heavy barrel was perfect to put out suppressive fire while reloading or swapping a barrel. He still lives by the concept that the R1 rifle was superior to the R4 and 5 in that terrain and it's not due to the rifle mechanics but due to the 7.62 caliber that had superior penetration in the vegetation of that terrain.

What about the Vektor SP1, SP2 and Z88 with their Polygonal barrels?

The CP1 had a minor drop safety issue. Most have been fixed though...
