You would think that this particular problem would have been discovered in the early stages of testing. HECK YES!
Even firing my AK variant in rapid single-shots the darn thing heats up enough to burn the skin off you. The Palmetto bugs don't like their end of it either.
Seriously, if they've even run it through basic trials something like this should have come up already. I'm beginning to fear for the safety of our soldiers already. Last thing they need in a life or death combat situation is a gun that surrenders like a Frenchman while they're still fighting.

We melted (produced a very noticeable droop) two M2 50 caliber barrels and an M60 barrel before we scrounged enough spares to be able to change them as often as required.
It aint nothing new.
