First we see the complete opposite of the modern British media: Pathe news instructing British citizens how to shoot rifles and kill Germans. Also some nice shots of Bisley, where today you'll find me shooting such rifles (though probably not killing Germans) much of the time. The NRA they mention is the NRA of Great Britain, which predates your own NRA of the USA. I had to laugh seeing some old toff marking targets - nowadays it's mostly students.
Then we see the introduction of the FN FAL and finally some tests of the EM-2 bullpup rifle (comparing it to a Garand, amongst others). Sadly, the EM-2 and the .280 cartridge that went with it were scrapped, despite excellent performance by all accounts, thanks to you Yanks who set .308 Win as the NATO standard
