[QUOTE="Rickt300, post: 4098490, member: 50678"] In this thread junior I have made no reference to the 249 being crew served. The 240 was crew served. How about addressing the far fewer rounds a squad will be able to put out with these weapons? Or adding a new round to the supply chain? I am not saying that there is no room for improvement as far as the 5.56 is concerned but it appears we are destined to relearn why the 308 was discarded. Beyond that a good question is how long will a suppressor last under the storm of muzzle pressure and powder fouling 80K PSI will cause before needing service? Will the weapon function properly without the suppressor? Will the muzzle blast be so bad it distracts other squad members? I note that uppers will be available in 7.62 and 6.5 Creedmoor. Do you actually think Nato will embrace this new expensive to produce round? Many questions and you seem to not want to engage them. [/QUOTE]
