So much retardation around fixing something that isn't broken. :bad:

I'm starting to think the media has something against Colt.

I hear the same old story pop up every year now.

Fu(kn stupid. At what point do they think that a newer weapon system will be more reliable, accurate, and cost-effective than the M16/M4? Not to mention modularity?

There may be something better then the M4 out there. I just hope that congress is not the one to make the decision.

Good article to indicate the power of lobbyists/Congressional supporters. Seeing that Schumer likes Remington instantly biased me against the ACR. I am seriously hoping this attention and "competition" result in a sub-$2,000 Colt monolithic uppered 308 (and frankly don't care about AR-15 compatibility.)

Do we really need to be having this discussion again?
