Barely Overlapping

My life and Dieudonne Saive's barely overlapped.

I'm just past 50 and he's been passed on for just less than 50 years.

I've used, own and carried three of his most famous designs (pictured below) and been issued and used a fourth (MAG / M240 not shown).  None were found wanting except the Baby, which is entirely too small for my mitten-like paws.

A person armed as above cannot be considered ill armed.

Repose en paix monsieur Saive!

    If I had to grab and go for some kind of "social" engagement, it would most likely be the FAL that goes with me. Plus, it is just a lot of fun to shoot.
