There is a video of a NSG side arm shooting drill. The mag change/transition is incredibly slow.

Almost all of them take eyes of the target while changing mags
This is how people shoot in real life. Its better to look at your gun while reloading than to fumble it. Even high speed operator types look at their weapon when they reload.
Their reloads arent painfully slow either, its more than adequate, the fundamentals are what matter.

Everything I have read written by SOF operators says otherwise.

When you shoot 300+ rounds a week day in and day out for years the gun becomes muscle memory and your get closer to the edge of perfection.

Mag chnage and fast transition holds lesser importance on a conventional battlefield because engagements are out to 150+m . In CQC it is sub 50ms and in a blink of an eye.

Irrespective the demo on the insta account by NSG was clumsy and far from the competency required of these type of units.

Watch Larry Vickers' videos instead (he's an ex Delta) his experience in the battlefield says it all. This trex arms dude is a LARPer, nothing else.

Seriously what they learn during joint exercise with GSG9 and GIGN

True, full auto is waste of ammo, useful only in CQB is short barrel rifles.
Barrel will heat up if really put to extreme may even burst.full auto is good for suppressing and breaking contact.soldiers carry approx 7 to 8 mags and that will be out in a minute if they go full auto

Full auto in guns like AK-47 and FN SCAR is good, with a very good rate of fire. 600 rounds per minute is absolutely good for auto fire but AR-15s have around 800-900, anything higher than 600rpm will require practice of fast trigger-ing, ofcourse you can’t empty the mag with such fast single fire even when you practice but who needs to dump so much rounds?

I have never seen a TAR 21 in automode...if any lone has it pls share..
This is so cool to see, even saw some reloads.

Notice the NSG mag change - happens at waist/chest level.

Notice the Garud changing mags. Happens at chin level. Easier to require and reengage even if eyes are taken off the target

What’s wrong with Indian Army? Binods are basic necessity and even the best in India don’t have it. Utter disgrace.
Instead of binods, i'd say, they should push for auto gated gen 3 or gen 3+ nvgs (whether monocular, biocular or binocular) they save a lot of money and are considered as the hallmark of image intensifier tech, wait i'll write a full length article here descriving pros and cons of image intesifiers
