- I'm curious about how the three round burst mode of the G11
- compared to the burst mode of the other weapons. Since the
- whole raison d'etre for the G11 was to provide tighter groups
- in burst mode and to increase the probability of at least
- one hit in this mode. I wouldn't expect the G11 to perform
- as well as the M16A2 firing single rounds because of the
- lighter bullets. It would also be interesting to know how
- tight the burst groups on the G11 are compared to other
- weapons are at various ranges.
-
- I'd also be curious as to how the scores compared between the
- male and female soldiers. Some of the ancedotal information
- I've read indicates that novice women shoot better than novice
- men. This is usually attributed to better fine muscle coordination.
