True that there is an RWS on the bushmaster (12.7 or 7.62) but the two rear infantry hatches can and usually have either minimis or mag58s on them.

Highly unlikely they will be there. Strykers, LAV-25's and other vehicles often have infantry poking out the hatches with MG's however in PR for some reason they aren't present, thus its doubtful they will be on the Bushy.

Don't forget the m113 with the huge infantry hatch. but without getting of topic, having a rear mounted mag58 implemented would provide additional firepower to the Australian faction due to the lack of heavy AFV's. Also because we are Australian, we need a fridge even though it has no use in game, its just who we are.

Too right mate..

No vehicles will be getting it I don't think, plus the M113AS4 turret has to be made too.

Think about an Australian sniper team and what they have on their quad bikes.
SR25, mp5, usp 45, mk46, CG 84mm, barret 50. but that's all i can remember. Point is, we need more firepower on the Aussie side as we lack in ammunition, not skill.

There is absolutely no chance that there will be a quad bike, MP5, Mk46 or Barret for the ADF period.

I say that with the utmost confidence. PR represents grunt warfare, which means everything you'd see in a regular RAInf BN.

5/7 perhaps? Without getting of topic, will the MAG58 have the wildcat sight mounted? as this is used in deployment.

Well yes, thats IF it comes in as an infantry kit. There is no intent for the M240/GPMG family of weapons to feature for a second AR kit.
