AFAIK, the only issue with that ammo is that it kinda explodes upon impact, thus its use vs soft targets is banned. (Although some people say that it only explodes AFTER it has penetrated a human and thus should not be banned)

I think the Norwegians will use this rifle, but with normal non "explosive" ammo

Since you crated the weapons do you know if they use Iron or Aim-Point?

I don't think they will remove it?

We have the HK417 made for the sniper rifle.

Why are there two service rifles in different calibers (HK416 in 5.56x45 and AG3-F1/F2 in 7.62X51) ???

I thought PR policy on the subject was like : "1 faction - 1 caliber for service rifle" (at least for conventional armies, not militia/insurgents), because of realism and logistic issues and so... That's how it works for others factions at the moment (even the IDF, which has two rifles, but both in 5.56).
(I know the AG-3F models are beautiful, they're like first-class G3s, it'd be a shame not to use them )

Because the AG3 hasn't been completely phased out yet. And the F2 w/ACOG is, IMO, a good choice for DMR. More zoom and power than the HK416, less zoom than the (semi-automatic - also an interesting choice for a sniper rifle) HK417.

Actually the Norwegian field-operative sharpshooters , or "snipers" as we often refer them to, are really marksmen. Directly translated from Norwegian to English, "skarpskytter" is "marksman", which settles the case.
Norwegian marksmen used to use some other rifle (don't remember the name atm), but are now required to use the HK417.

Even though its a shitty book and some of the facts in the tale is wrong, the dedicated fact-part in the middle of the is correct, according to mil.no

There's your source. Stop whining.
