No, those problems were the result of adopting the rifle in the first place.Do you really think those problems were a result of not changing the rifle enough??
After 50 years of refinement and engineering changes, we're about where we'd have been on Day One if we'd simply taken a proven design -- like the M1 Carbine, and simply scaled it up a bit to take a .22 varmint round.
