Many did however find their way to the Solomon Islands where some remain in the hands of the bags and many others were intoduced o a large gringer with a cut off wheel.

Anyone familiar with what the current infantry small arm for the PNGDF is? 

 

I'd heard rumors that they were getting recycled Diemaco C7A1 rifles (license-built Canadian versions of the M16A2), but I never saw confirmation.  From Wes' photos, it appears that the 7.62 machine gun of choice is the L7-series (or other variant of the Belgian MAG-58 GPMG).

 

There's not too much about the PNGDF on the Internet save that about three battalion-sized units are based at Port Morseby, Lae, and Weewak.
