    And this is why I didn't read it. David Crane and "Defense Review" are 100% clown shoes.

    The difference in exterior and terminal ballistics from 10" to 14.5 is significant.

    LMG, MMG, HMG, Mortars aren't being humped on patrols in the mountains.

    Many of the, non issued, handguards displayed aren't robust enough for combat use.

    Pics of dysfunctional set ups.... 100% clown shoes "article".

    David Crane didn't write it.

    The author was in my company years ago. He's very much on the job and has been for a long time.

    Doesn't the Australian Special Forces use the Alpha rail? Have to be decent enough then, I can't say personally as I have no first hand experience with those rails fyi.

    In combat, muzzle awareness can sure go out the window. On the bright side, now when he tells his grandkids about getting shot at, he can show them a personal vid.

    That wasn't the issue. Did you see the sling wrapped round the grip and trigger? He had to move the sling out of the way to even use the rifle.

    "It passed right by me!"

    Then kill the mother ****er. Don't just lay in the prone and talk about it.

    I hate seeing videos like that.

    no kidding. Can't get to safety or trigger hardly.....

    Seems like a very dangerous strategy on his part.

    "Hey LT, cover me, I need to unlace my chit!...."

    When I was in cancun I saw a mex army jeep gunner muzzle sweep the back of his drivers head repeatedly as they were parked...

    What if the guy in the video was two seconds away from a bad guy..... he'd been dead on account of stupidity.
