Oh yeah, further comment on the gun.
The G-36k on the bottom of it has about as much barrel as our current M4. It performs as well, and is a result of long-term statistical parsing that showed that the vast majority of modern engagements occur ove rmuch shorter distances than previous norms. As such, shorter barrels are just fine. There will be alternative barrel assemblies available for longer range shooting as needed, and heavier barrels for the SAW version.
I also consider it worky and complex. Still, in a 5-man fire-team, one or two of these babies would greatly add to the teams effective firepower and definitely expand their capability.
Still, the bulk is so freakin' obscene that I can't figure any way to comfortable carry it on patrol. It's an ugly, ungainly brute.
