So I have seen the specs on the new cart.

I am a bit concerned about the pressure. That is why there is a suppressor and it is so heavy, but I do wonder about metal fatigue on the rifle.

Yes, I have wondered how the breach of the barrell can handle the over pressure when it sees the continuous use for many hours in battle.I do feel that there may be some breach problems of full seating when the weapon gets really hot, and perhaps cooked off rounds, and stovepiping. Its the rare rifle candidate that does not do that in extremis. I bet that barrel gets so really hot, thius the shroud.

My feeling is thatthis is a meetro sexual rifle, Its all about looks, target range , and status without the test of battle conditions.

As you can see , I am quite skeptical. We need our sons and daughters armed with the best and I suspect this is not it.
