...and the reason you continue to insist that alternative links are not credible until they are PROVEN is?
The bottom line is that you are coming across as being convinced that a cartridge like the Grendel is entirely unsuitable in the machine-gun application.
Yet, the only basis for your claim is that you aren't sure it can be done? There seems to be something missing in the logic.
At the end of five years of this, you really should start to accept the opinions of those with real experience in this world. There are others who have indicated that redesigning links for the shorter cartridge is a straightforward development exercise. My experience includes more than thirty years of work in weapons research and development, yet I cannot claim the expertise in this matter that your several hundred posts over the years suggest that you have. What i can do, however, is accept judgements by those who DO have relevant experience.
You really do need to let the link issue go. You have added nothing new to this topic in five years. Everything since has been mindless repetition.
