The 6.8 thing was more than a decade ago. The article is nothing special, I only posted it because it was posted in a political site, the Federalist, indicating to me that concern about CW2 is spreading even to the GOP brainiacs.

"GOP brainiacs."

That's gotta be the latest addition to George Carlin's list of misnomers.

The irony was intentional.

I had five AKs and sold all but one when prices went north of 900 dollars back when “they weren’t going to import any more.”

You can take a guess on whether bought some back now that prices are back to about 5-600 (these are Yugos, Chinese, and one Czech underfolder).

Never sell your personal stuff, and I am not saying how many of those I have.

Apparently they are taking another look at the 6.8mm.
Maybe a nextgen version with a poly casing instead of brass to save weight? Anyway, doesn’t look like it will be the same 6.8SPC that was developed years ago.

Polymer and caseless ammo always run into an overheating problem. Brass drags away mucho calor.

The better armed we are, the more chance to delay and defuse a conflict.

The better armed we are, the more chance to survive and win a conflict.

These are the truths the Left tries to deny.

What! No M203 grenade launcher?!?! When I was a young under 21-year-old grunt, I thought the early XM148 40mm bomb-tossers we had were neater than sliced bread. Flimsy though, they broke and parts got bent, so I stuck with the break-open singleshot M79. The M203 is better, but we're not quite there yet.
