WHAT? for one, who wants to lose their close range weapon, and two, the entrenching tool can cut a mans skull IN HALF. and sure, the spets can roll around and shoot from unorthodox positions, but like the gb said while the russian was doing all that jazzy rolling around, he'd just put a round in him).The Russians were better fighters completely. Did you see the handgun thing? so hold on, you're guaging the effectiveness of an entire military division based on handgun marksmanship alone? so? the show failed to mention the m9 beretta carries TWICE as many rounds as the makarov. also, according to the show we have better snipers (which we do...the dragonov is a joke compared alongside the m24, although they misrepresented the fire rate on the show...the m24 is bolt action). the only edge i can honestly give the spets was with their saiga shotgun...its a very, very, very sick shotgun...however i have no idea why the gb used the mossberg in favor of the semi-automatic benelli...even so, both the spets and gb's have completely different battle tactics...the spets rely more on the individual alone rather than the entire squad, while the gb's general philosophy is to rely on squad tactics and combined firepower. and to put it simply, if you're outmanned and outgunned, you're pretty much screwed. russians 'completely better fighters'? not even close. tell you what, you take your makarov and i'll take the m24 at 300 yards, and we'll see what happens...

...what does that have to do with anything? how old is the ak47 and how long has it been in use? 50-60 years old and STILL going strong. your point has no validity...if both sides have the same arms and firepower, then you must compare battle tactics. again, you do your fancy little rolling around jig, we'll put a slug in you. again, the battle tactics between the two are tremendously different. the spets, although highly trained, their methods are not based on the team reliance and strategy like that of the gb's. and yeah, the spets are highly trained in pain resistance, but thats alot of training time spent on tactics that only become primarily useful if you're captured. in hand to hand, you usually die from a puncture force or blunt trauma at some point, so this type of training is a complete waste of time...almost utterly useless in modern warfare. if the weapons are similiar, or even in some cases inferior, the team that wins the most are the ones that work together and use their mind. gb's will on average win this battle hands down.

GB's aren't psychopaths, they're cocky Americans. Also, a team of GB's is only as strong as their weakest link. The Russians are all able to independently function by themselves.

if you're trained to fight independently, how can you possibly fight as a team? i find it amusing how loosely you use the term 'squad' in regards to the spets.
i have a problem with losing my close range weapon after just one use. its seriously one of the most useless weapons i've seen on the show.

Nice appeal to modesty, by the way.ignorant to pretty much everything? i've provided countless specifics and facts on why the gb would literally tear apart the spets, and the best you can ever provide is 'nuh uh, no way, no they cant' with no substantiating evidence WHATSOEVER and this completey asinine claim to 'genetic superiority'. you've been outsmarted and outclassed in nearly EVERY aspect regarding this subject (not just by me, but by others as well), and your feeble attempts at constructing anything even REMOTELY valid is just further hurting your credibility. seriously, just give it up while you're not ahead.
