should Australia be included in the section regarding users?
i have a link to a picture released by the Australian ministry of defence showing an australian special forces operative with a Barret m82.would this be enough evidence to include Australia as a user? http://www.defence.gov.au/op/afghanistan/gallery/2010/20101105/20101018adf8262658_008.jpg {{unsigned|Pikcelled}}
