I'm sorry but the plastic action on the AUG just seems so ... ugh. I've fired them and they are difficult to "feel." I know that sounds so imprecise, but that's the exact feeling I have. I don't like the Aug; but i also have issues with the 5.56mm round as well.

I'd like to see an M14 with a folding stock. There was an EYEtalian knockoff of the M14 called the BM59 (I think) that had a paratroop style folding wire stock. That'd be the ticket!

Funny thing is that in a little over a year in theater I've not heard any direct criticism of the M-16 or variants by those who actually use them. I've read comments like this article which quotes unnamed sources for dislike of the weapon.

As for the Beretta, the biggest, and really only bitch is the magazines.

What I want is one of the pintle mounted M 82's! That combined with a SAW seem to be a pretty good combo for the HUMVEE TC.

Again, I'm not hearing any dissatisfaction with the weapons. But, hey, what would I know about what the troops think? lol...
