/k/ weighs in on the XM7 (I personally have no comment)

Early 2000s FPSs promised me the XM8, and was left disappointed.
That mini timed grenade launcher that never happened was as sick as the stars wars space defense.
XM25 actually saw combat trials. The reported results were mixed, with reportedly conventional units appreciating it and Army Rangers looking at it as a burden. I'm personally skeptical to treat any of these public releases as entirely truthful, but it shows the XM25s were certainly issued in select numbers.
It was canceled for some arguably inane safety reasons, and speculatively because of a combat draw down and because the M320 opened up possibles of smart munitions which further tightened the XM25's niche.
Also what ever happened to Metal Storm?
MR-C or bust.
Soldier of Fortune 2 had a pretty devastating OICW.
I wonder if all the NCOs are bitching because they have to get their guys to clean their guns twice as often now.
Guns?
GUNS?!
I didn't know this was a piece of artillery. This is a rifle!
t.some sergeant who got promoted because he could run fast good.
Man, I fuckin hated those guys. "Gun? Is this the navy?"
They're being kind, it's a carbine firing battle rifle rounds, that always works out well.
I look forward to its replacement by the M4A9. or whatever HK decides to call it this time.
Everything about this is wrong, this person know nothing about firearms, even though they really think they do.
Are telling me that your average 4chan NEET has no engineering background?
Yes but the skub potential.
Good point

Yeah ok but armour piercing, 2km range and looks cool.
