:(

And imagine saying stuff just to try and sound “cool”.

tfw (that face when) winter war

When the soviets hear the gunshots coming from Simo Hayha's barrel

Epic

Didn't the Philippines president also try and get people to hunt communists for sport

Yeah

And people are

@Asdrubal Thats from last year. It went nowhere.

Wdym

There was a group of Americans that went to hunt em

This is what the US army want to replace the M16/M4 with, and its fucking disgusting

ok

it’s not gonna be replaced

Unless there is a problem with the polymer ammunition

Its gonna replace it

if it’s replaced it won’t last

bullpulp design is a gimmick at best

Eh, the US army was experimenting with bullpup in the middle east, few month (or weeks) before this

the ar15 system is honestly a perfect design for the military, i don’t see any significant change coming any time soon

The ar15 cant be converted to 6.8mm

who needs 6.8mm

The US military

"markedly better than anything else in inventory, especially considering our strategic resource reserves"

@Pirate Headcrab It’s not a gimik. It gives a shorter overall length with a longer barrel length, making it a hell of a lot more versatile when it comes to range.

@Asdrubal In fairness Sig Sauer also has something in the running.

Just hope they don’t pick the dumpster fire that is the Textron offering.

It’s got a fucking **nub**

I know why bullpulps exist

But its not as practical for field operations, its good for making accurate rifles but not much else

If it was just for a sniper then it would make sense, the most accurate rifle ever is a bullpulp iirc

@Pirate Headcrab Why not? When it comes to field operations you can go from a mountain to a cave or mudhut in seconds. That extra reach with a shorter length can matter.

Yeah tbh

All the other contracts are fucking shit

Trying to get the futuristic aesthetic of the XM8 but failing horribly

time for the US to get its own version of the SA80

<:lmao:591182326013100034>

Yay, time to get the burger civil servant

What does this have over the standard m4 platform? What does it imrove, because it certainly doesn't *look* better
