//Today’s war in Iraq requres a short barreled weapon for quick exit from an MRAP and for close quarter battle.

The standard M14 is fine in Afghanistan in the hills, but not for Sadr City.//

Like you say, but its not more the time of the war but the environment of the war. Your Afghanistan/Iraq comparison works well.

M1A and M14 types can be reconfigured to a bullpup configuration making them IDEAL for tight quarters.
