Army Awards SIG NGSW Contract

[montana]

I don't think anyone is confusing a competition as a combat like environment. However, it is a controlled environment with known elements to compare the new rifle and cartridge against. The data could be very valuable.

I'd also like to see the tertiary effects of suppressor usage on an 80ksi round.

Colt's head Armorer instructor Dean Caputo stated you will cut the life of an M4 rifle in half when using a suppressor..

I'm sure the 80k psi+ pressure is not going to improve the situation..
