I argued with their reps about that system at last year's SHOT Show.
Yes, Air.177, that was an endorsement of a couple of their products.

IIRC, a couple Army Times issues back there was an article on this topic. Other companies were being asked to submit systems for eval with the XM8. I remember that I found it odd that the time between the article and the time the submissions were to be in was not very long. Sounds to me like another way for those involved to continue pushing the XM8 while appearing to have free and open competition.
The article also stated that FNUSA won the contract for the SCAR weapon system.
