If the squad needs a machine gun, they need a machine gun, not another rifle. This makes no sense to me. Follow the money cause somebody got paid off.

I know we could argue about the caliber all day, but If I needed a round of suppressive fire, I would choose the .308 with a belt, not just another mag fed 5.56. The other guys in the squad could give me that. The SAW was for special occasions that needed a special weapon.

Great post.
BUMP what you said. As I mentioned in #12, this new weapon sounds like little more than an old full-auto M16.
(yawn)
