Probably light mortars, 60mm knee cap - CHICOM industries sells them cheap. They are more annoying than anything.

As long these terrorists continue attacking a democratically elected government no foreign force will ever leave Mogadishu and i feel sorry for the civilians

Ma dhab baa in Jeneraal caan ka ah Soomaaliya loo magacaabay howlgalka ciidamada dowladda KMG ee Muqdisho.

Muqdisho ,Talaado , Marso , 13 , 2007, Waagacusub.com


Iyadoo maalmaha soo socda la filayo in hawlgalo amaanka magaalada Muqdisho lagu sugayo ay ka bilaabaan Ciidamada dowladda KMG sida uu qorshuhu yahay ayaa warar aanu ka helnay magaalada Baydhabo waxa ay sheegayaan in Madaxweyne C/llaahi Yuusuf uu howlgalkaasi u magacaabay inuu hoggaamiyo Jen. Maxamed Sicid Xirsi (Moorgan).

Sida warku sheegayo Jen. Morgan iyo saraakiil kale oo howshan kaga hooseynaysa ayaa loo xil saaray fulinta howlgalkan oo looga gol leeyahay in inta ka horreysa muddada shirka dib u heshiisiinta ee lagu dhawaaqay 16-ka April inuu ka furmayo Muqdisho si weyn wax looga qabto ammaanka.
Ma jirto cid xaqiijineysa in Morgan uu howlgalkani horkacayo, hase ahaatee wasiir ka tirsan dowladda KMG ayaa horey u sheegay in saraakiil ka tirsan ciidamada dowladdu ay u fadhiyaan qaabkii looga hawlgeli lahaa magaalada Muqdisho, isagoo intaa ku daray in ciidamadii howlgalkaasi fulin lahaana ay hadda diyaar ku yihiin goobihii loogu talo galay sida uu qoray Wargeyska Xog Ogaal.

Hey Abdi when you were fighting with the SNA, did you use any weapon other than small arms?

Man you're killing me. I wasn't a peacenik, and I remain someone who is not. I carried an M-16A2 and a Baretta 9mm pistol, along with a couple of fragmentation grenades and a couple of smoke grenades, plus 270 rounds of 5.56mm ammo and 50 rounds of 9mm.

M-16s had a tendency to jam a lot and their bullets were a bitc,h to find. the Ak though bulkier was a more versatile weapon

In the early part of the war, APCs and Tanks were used. As time passed on, the level of hardware was reduced due to the prohibitive cost of munitions, repairs and fuel.

The most fabolous weaponry was this thing called the AL ABBAS, a 9 or 12 rocket launcher similar to the BM Stalin Katuysha rockets. Those had some devasting power.

Well, those were the good old days.

The M-16A1, which was what the Somalis tended to use, did have a reputation for ajmming. Even the A2 will jam if carbon builds up in the extractor. But if you do a good job maintaining it, the M-16A2 is not bad. Although Heckler and Koch have developed a weapon that is similar looking on the outside, but has an internal blowback function that is reportedly extremely reliable.

The problem I have with both weapons is the ammunition. The 7.32 x 39 round used in the AK has horrible ballistics. You can live with it at ranges of 100 plus meters, but if you want to reach out and touch someone at 300 or so, it's crap. The problem with the 5.56 is it's lack of stopping power. When I hit someone, I want them down hard. I don't want them shooting back at me after I have plugged them. The other problem I have with the AK is the balance SOCKS! It's the most unwieldly thing to shoot. With the M-16A2 I can put a bullet in a mans chest without a problem at 300 plus meters. With the AK, I'll be lucky if I scare him. It is reliable, but it is just a flat out lousy rifle to shoot if you intend to do anything other than spray and pray.
