The M14 also being shit

A LOT of good GIs died so the Army bean counters could save 30 cents a piece. That is how much it would have cost to give soldiers cleaning kits with the M16A1.

The army trains for 300m

On the m4

Also
>prong muzzle break grabbing all the tripwires

You don't have to hit the 300m targets to qualify expert

There's only two 300m targets out of 40

We're off topic though

Newer more radically designed rifles can and do outperform modern "good-enough" weapons

You qualify on single shot of course

By your logic the Abrams is fine despite being 40 years old and 20 years past due for shelving

Reminder that the US is the only reason the Bongs did not have a reasonably good bullpup rifle in an intermediate cartridge decades sooner than they did, because of "Muh Stopping Power" autism.

The m4 I was issued had semi and 3 round burst

Yeah they decided to remove FA for some reason

It was originally 3rd burst

The new M4A1 is the auto

It's a carbine, literally the ass-baby of an SMG and an AR, why not give it FA for CQC?

Keep in mind the OG m4 also had a fixed carry handle

But why? I was under the impression that the reason M4s were adopted is because they needed to have more volume of fire in tight spaces?

As did the M16a3

Probably infantry bitching about lugging the M16 in CQC

To be fair, it is a bit of a long boi

The m16a3 designation was made for full auto A2s

Reminder that there are pictures of Americans using captured PPSH-41s in the Battle of Fallujah.

And the detachable carry handle happened halfway into A3

tfw the PPsH is a better CQC option than your service weapon

So there's actually no difference between the A2 and A3 aside from the fcg

And later A3s being flat top

But this means an A2 can be flat top arguably

Wait it's PPSh

I always get that mixed up

Rofl if the NFA were repealed today, tomorrow would be the day I purchased a machine pistol or SMG for HD.

>not getting a Honey Badger

wtf is wrong wtih you

>6.8

I don't like gay shit, sorry.

They didn't fucking learn

They never will

Integrally supressed .300blk subsonic because... fuck you.

I dream of a day that I can have a Beretta Model 12 submachine gun to play with.

Closest you will ever get to an AS VAL unless you make your own
