The "Interim Combat Service Rifle"

[C-grunt]

I work with a guy that was on one of the SOF units that tested the 6.8. His response was "meh". They went back to 5.56 and saw no difference. A good hit is still a good hit, a bad hit is still a bad hit, and a miss is still a miss.

Last I heard was that the new HK CSASS was going to be the new DMR for the big Army. But that was a few weeks ago which is an eternity in the government.

You know why SCAR lost to HK 416 in France despite being the favourite? Because FN submitted their entry google-translated. They just didn't care, thought it was in the bag.

Why would they need to do that? Belguim has two national languages-French is one of them. I'm sure someone in-house speaks it.

I'm sure FN could do it easily, if they only wanted. They were just too arrogant to do it right.
