    So, if that's the equivalent of the XM5 and XM250, slated as the M4 and M249 replacement respectively, it'll use a 6.5 x 51 round.

    Allegedly it's 6.8 x 51 Sig Fury


    See you article says same. Maybe fat finger typing on your part or 6.5itis?

    Still--what about the lung blow???
    I could be wrong, I've done that before ;)

    I was certain I saw 65.5 somewhere else, 'cause it stood out to me as one of those WTH? things. Oh, well. Thx.

    Que the video of the lady testifying in congress recently that ARs totally explode people, and the reason why they don't show bodies of AR mass shooting victims is because they're bodies are totally gone and not there anymore! (This beats the lung remover story by far lol).

    The reason why they couldn't ban greentip and other bullets that are mistakenly called "armor piercing rounds".. (when in fact its just soft steel, armor piercing rounds have to be harder than armor steel. Metals like tungsten etc), is because ALL rifle rounds are inherintly "armor piercing" when it comes to vests to some degree. Some more so than others. So all rifle rounds would have to be banned in order to adhere to AP round bans.

    This new SIG is just an AR10 variant of the old MCX lineup. There's already rifles out there that can do the same job. Only real difference is these can fold up and be smaller.

    Seeing how these rifles had a MSRP of like 7 or 8k$, and the bids for the initial rifles on gunbroker went to like 70-80k$ each for them I doubt we'll see any average Joe's with these anytime soon lol

    News stories like this sound like they are parody pieces, written in “The Daily Onion”. Unfortunately, they are real mainstream news stories. Because most members here have a bit of knowledge on firearms (except C308’s ), we can all see the ridiculousness of the claims in this news article. But we should apply the same standard of judgement to most other media stories too, especially if they are subjects that we are less knowledgeable on. In other words, “The media only tells you what they want you to believe, and they will create fake news stories to support their narrative.”

    Mass media reporter’s are as crazy as a shithouse rat. There are no standards , other than being a mentally challenged liberal democrat, for being a so called journalists . Apparently there’s even less requirements to be an editor. The mainstream propaganda organizations are so far out of reality that only liberal socialist would pay any attention to them. It’s really sad that they are referred to as news outlets.

    How dare they sell to civilians. They are peasants

    Hell the PMR 30 can shoot though a vest. Depends on what vest. Stopped .45 and 9mm, but the PMR 30 22 Mag went though it.

    This was a Second Chance soft body vest I had. Level II or III I believe.

    Yes it was laying on the shooting berm and not someone wearing it. LOL
