>>64339557Looks like one of the main lessons they learned from the Vietnam war is that grenade launchers are really useful
>>64340302You say all that crap but the only thing different from the norm is that they need to suuply a few extra grenades. It's no big deal.

>>64340629Sounds funny, let me just find that video.….The ‘part 1’ is a fucking hour long? Timestamp pls.
>>64340913lmaohttps://files.catbox.moe/8gulsm.mp4
>>64339910Lol, lmao even. The term PDW gets applied to semi auto weapons so PDWs can be semi auto.
>>64340978Aahhhhh I see, thanks bro. I skipped over that section since all the 7.5 velocities were in the 2000fps range, didn’t realize he’d be chronoing other calibers as well.
How does it compare to Barrett’s offering?

>>64340786Looks like an autistic attempt to build a gun.

How is this different from the XM25?
>>64341218It's really not at all different in concept besides the anti-drone use which wasn't really a thing when the XM25 was in development. Hopefully it'll make use of about 2 more decades of development, but I suspect all of these things will run into the same issue that it did, that most guys would prefer a carbine.
what happened to it?
>>64340132The .264/6.5x43mm does seem interesting, but 6.5x39mm/6.5 Grendel has already been outclassed. Grendel belongs in a museum; it has the same BC as 6mm ARC, less flat shooting than 6mm ARC, slower than 6mm ARC, similar bullet weights (90 gr or 108 gr being common); it's just old news. It did do a great job of outperforming 6.8 SPC though.
>>64340204>outclassedNo, it hasn't. .30-06 hasn't been "outclassed"(You) can make an argument that cartridge X outperforms cartridge Y in certain metrics, but each cartridge also has its disadvantages. Barrel burning one of them, but there are others.6.8 was always a fucking joke. Solution to a 'problem' that never existed
>>64339777>why not just use the tech for 556?Because we've got nas3 for that already being fielded. SIGs case in the m250 and rebarreled 240 plus a dmr would be ideal.
>>64340278>No, it hasn't. >.30-06 hasn't been "outclassed"See when two rounds serve a different purpose, then they can both exist alongside one another; however, when two cartridges serve the same purpose, like two intermediate cartridges known as 6.5 Grendel and 6mm ARC, it's unnecessary to own both. The people who already own 6.5 Grendel will continue to use it and the people who are now looking for an upgrade to 5.56 will likely consider the superior cartridge (the 6mm ARC or the .264/6.5x43mm). Look at how .450 Marlin slowly started dying out when 45-70 became the standard, how 6.5 Creedmoor is slowly making .270 Winchester die out, or look at how .38 Colt disappeared when .38 Super came around; the only people who kept the obsolete cartridge were those who bought into it before the upgrade came along.>6.8 was always a fucking joke.The funny thing about this statement is that while I meant 6.8x43mm/6.8 SPC (6.5 Grendel's main competitor in the early 2000s), you could apply this statement to 6.8x51mm/.277 Fury and it'd still be 100% accurate. LOL
>>64340713I don't see 6 mm ARC as a direct supplanting of 6.5 Grendel nor do I have a requirement for itYes agreed, some ? newer calibers can make older ones obsolete. .260 Remington though will probably stay around despite 6.5 Creedmoor's now-wide adoption. There are many other examples that can go either wayRE: 6.8, I meant all/both
I just like it.

>>64340620Those same complaints have been made about this size of HE for 80 years now. It's still the sort of obstacle-reducing firepower that formerly weighed 500lb and required a 4 man crew lugging it into position, well worth having around at this new 20-30lb form-factor. Stick or steel framing ain't any more resilient than picrel.

>>64340630Discoloration possibly from oil saturation or from corrosion around the recoil bolts staining the wood. Is it discolored on th inside too? You could take the bolts out and examine them for corrosion but the stock will probably have shrunk a bit over the years and trapped them in there.>>64340692All guns have a chance of exploding.

I cant wait for this little bastard to get released. It has a full hydraulic buffer just like the apc 223, along with 3 position gas piston. Telescoping stock. Very reliable and low recoil. Avg apc 223 goes for 4500$. The spc 223 will be around 2500$ new, which will completely crush any AR in that price range. You do the math.
