It has served as the standard issue rifle of the Canadian military since 1982 and has also been adopted by Norwegian special forces, Denmark and the Netherlands, while British special operations units use the C8 carbine variant under the designation L119A1. Forces from these countries have used the rifle extensively in Afghanistan, Iraq and Mali.
