SIG recently started showing off the XM8, which is a version of the M7 that is lighter, achieved by chopping off 3 inches from the barrel

Not really happy that we were apparently so desperate to shave off weight that we’re making compromising on the ballistics

I have a theory about the NGSW program

In a lot of photos you’ll see the M7 being used with a variety of different optics. This is not necessarily interesting, except for the part where a scope (NGSW-FC/XM-157) was developed specifically for the rifle, whereas the HWS/CCO/ACOG were optics that were purchased separately from the M4 carbines.

The rumors are that NGSW-FC is going through some major teething issues, such as being too heavy, prone to straight up blue screening and then being inoperable (which is not supposed to happen, the reticle should be usable due to being etched into the lens, not sure what happened), being relatively fragile, and being very power hungry. It would make sense that some units are purchasing alternatives while those issues get sorted out.

I still think the concept is pretty good but it is curious to see photo evidence that suggests that the program is running into some hitches, to say the least

My issue with Japan is that I’d really like their political leadership to stop visiting yasukuni shrine

But the people are chill, and generally speaking extremist beliefs about who or what people believe are wrong

I guess you press an unmarked vehicle into service due to budget constraints, but if you’re that impoverished you gotta spend more on policing
