Sinister and The Reaper,

You are both correct, but try to tell any of that to an engineer! They all have their pet projects and the funding that goes along with it. (thank Al Gore and his re-inventing gov't) Barret was here with their mod, in both 5.56 and 6.8, a rep from your community is pushing it, it has a different gas system and seemed great though I never shot it.

The powers to be here settled on the spring. They were issuing new mags during the RFI (rapid fielding initiative), I don't think they are this fiscal year (05). As far as the ammo is concerned, its a whole different world. They have a legal department here just for ammo. They also have people from NATO and God knows who else who deal only small arms ammo. I'm way down the food chain, I'm a new equipt. trainer, former enlisted, and a contractor. They look at me like the hired help.
