I'm still not happy about it, we won't have a decent service weapon until we move away from direct gas systems, just toss a piston in the bitch and be done with it.
its really what is needed.
thankfully the FN SCAR is a piston gas system, as was the XM8, so direct gas has clearly been struck down from the running in any future weapons.
p.s. the 6.8 has lost some of its lackluster now that it has been conceded that the new gun really needs a new magazine system to work 100%, I think not having to buy another 50 million magazines would have been really appealing to the army, that shit adds up.
