Interesting. Hopefully it works as advertised. It is cool looking, though.

Where do you mount the bayonet?

Clearly, these guys have been playing too much DOOM.

Cute little weapon. Reminds me of the FN model FS2000 I keep seeing at the gunshows for $2500. I wonder how it's going to compare to the old M14 or even better the Garand when it comes to CQB and a needed buttstroke to the skull?

Looks like a Mobile Infantry rifle from Starship Troopers.

Yeah... the military will spend billions of dollars on the “new high tech weapon of the future” but when it comes to training with that weapon... the soldiers get screwed. This last month we had soldiers leave Ft. McCoy (for Iraq) who had just barely qualified (after 5-6 attempts). Why? No class on their assigned weapon. Commanders are signing off that their unit is trained when they are not. If you are in a position that you could do something about the atrocity... Freep mail me. The chain of command has failed.

This may sound like a stupid question, but the why the hell is an American Company partnering with a GERMAN firm to manufacture weapons for the AMERICAN military???

Winchester isn’t interested? There are no manufacturers in the U.S. who can produce it??

I smell somebody’s buddy getting a kickback or contract here.

Suppose we get involved in a major war and the supply of weapons from Germany is cut off?

What they also really need is an infrared laser sight for the M203 or the M79|(which shouldn’t have been decomissioned IMO). The M203 would be much more useful with such a device.

Who cares what it costs? If it helps put down even one taxpayer rebellion or un-permitted non-secular church in the future United Socialist States it will be worth it. (sarcasm).

That's a cute rifle but where's the bayonet attach?

The new 50 will never be as pretty as a Ma duece.
