Looks like a great rifle - like the suppressor: it helps keep the firer better hidden, reduced the dust and flash from the shot and allows the shooter to hear commands better.

Would still prefer the M-14, though..

An oddity in the article: it listed the weights for the M16, M4, and the M110 but didn't describe the weight of the new rifle...?

“Would still prefer the M-14, though..”

I carried an M14 for 7 months, then they took it from me and gave me a POS M16 (a whole 2-1/2 pounds lighter). First 2 firefights with the M16 had it fail on me.

The m14 while great, does require tweaking and user knowledge in my opinion to function at its best.
