Perhaps so, but there is little question that a bull barrel will perform far better than a lightweight barrel in rapid fire situations.

Until it overheats, and it will take longer to cool and contribute some additional weight.

Military procurement, and investigations of same, often involve political or business agendas.

True!

However I now believe an opportunity arrived (for those with the agendas) when the gun out distanced in Afghanistan.

If you ask a tool to do what it was not designed to do?

It fails.

I expect full auto from a high capacity mag in a weapon of this class could be called the "Hail Mary" spray lead emergency mode.

A very cool HK - The 51 & 51-B.
I would like to convert my G3 semi into one of these.
