The Canadian military love them. In fact, a friend of mine, who lost both of his legs driving a G in Afghanistan after it was hit by a homicide car bomb attack, credits the G. its build quality and its armament with saving his life. I'd post the photo here, but I've done it before; and the forum software won't allow a photo to be posted a second time.

The US Marine Corps uses them for their Interim Fast Attach Vehicles, and they love 'em. The US Army and their Humvees wish that they had them.
