They don't always choose based on optimal performance. A lot of politics go behind these decisions.

Keep your eye on what Delta Force and SAS choose for a firearm. That will tell you what the actual best choice is.

On the verge of WW3 is a terrific time to switch to an oddball cartridge which no other military or branch uses.

I'm surprised they don't come in pride colors

I love SIG-Sauer, and everything I've heard about the new ammo sounds good. Here's what I can't figure out though:

Just grab the popcorn and wait for the recall. It is Sig we are talking about after all.

The rifle is now called the XM7 due to Colt having a patented M5. Also note their designing new versions of the rifle using more titanium to make it lighter in the future. However that is just a rumor I heard to be fair.

Fighting with a suppressor as a standard is a game changer for the shooter. Less overpressure, noise, and recoil, provide a less stressful shooting environment, which leads to dramatically increased accuracy. The ability to audibly communicate more clearly with team members during a firefight (due to less in-shooter noise) cannot be over stated.

I’m skeptical about the combat load taking a hit. With the m4 at least you can carry 7 mags for 210 rounds, but with this bigger round I’m guessing it’s around like 20 rounds a mag? Not great for fire suppression unless you put all that responsibility on solely the SAW gunner. New tactics are coming.

6.8mm was about what the British suggested a general use round for NATO after WWII. After extensive testing. But the US went with 7.62 then 5.56. Its been a long journey. 🇬🇧

The key to this rifle is the next generation Vortex optic. It will turn The average infantryman into a dedicated marksman

Good for Sig man. They're doing some amazing things and keeping America, and much of the world, safe with these innovations.

The first and only handgun I bought was a P226 back in 1987 was a former RCMP handgun. I loved that thing

What I have always loved about the m16a4 is that it's ability to penetrate body is completely inconsequential as it's so accurate and easy to shoot that with the right optics you could decide which eye to land a couple rounds in
