Assault rifles and their ammunition

[Tony Williams]

Don't forget, though that new sights like the DInGO will be along soon. This combines red dot with imaging-enhancing video with 16x zoom magnification, a laser rangefinder, ballistic computer and corrections for uphill, downhill and weapon cant. The weight target is less than 350g (12.3oz - plus 3x AA batteries) and the cost less than $1000. It's expected to be ready for field testing this summer and to be ready for service within 1-3 years.

This will dramatically improve the potential for accurate long-range fire by ordinary riflemen - provided that the gun and ammo are up to it.
