Question M110 S.A.S.S.

I apologize for starting this thread, but I failed to see it listed under any of the search keywords. I was wondering if anyone here has had the chance to engage any targets with the new S.A.S.S. Here is a link to a video I came across, though I am skeptical about it's performance due to the past problems with Stoner's design/manufacture of his design by certain companies.

It seems that it has the capability, although I personally haven't test fired it. I am awaiting the new TM for further info, but it has not arrived yet. Thank you for hearing me out, and God Bless.

You might get a better answer if you filled in your profile (as we asked in your registration message) so that we can tell a little bit more about who you are and where you are coming from.

Sincere Apology

My sincerest apology. I previously filled out my profile when I first signed up. Apparently I must not have hit the save changes icon, or their was a computer error. No disrespect, I honestly believed it was posted. Thank you for the notification.

Now that your profile is filled out a bit - Don't believe everything you see on a military video.

I just felt obligated to point out the misspelling in the signature block. Not being asinine, just trying to help!

Stop already. Five posts and all of them have an apology or other self-depreciating remark. It's getting annoying. Your SA needs serious work. Read more and post less until you get a feel for your operating environment. You'll learn more and attract less (unfavorable) attention.

Never changed it, guess you need to get your eyes checked as well.

SGT Freeman looks as if he needs to be properly trained on the right way to shoot that rifle. Made it look as if he was on the Barret vs. 7.62 rifle. Bad, bad recoil management.

Ahhh, there are better things out there. We owe LR1947 a few for testing, and I think that his initial assessment of beating the pants off current fielded systems will remain the norm .
