Isn’t this the kind of stuff Obama promised to cut?

Hey this is my first post on the site so I’m not sure what the rules are for linking within conversations. If you guys are interested in newer weapons in the army I could dig up some good stuff for you. The stuff on this video is cool but definitely not what SOCOM is using... much more advanced stuff right now.

Not sure if this is going to work... this is my first post on Free Republic. If you guys are interested in this stuff I can dig up some of the newest stuff that SOCOM is using... a lot more advanced than the stuff on this video.

That would be nice, provided you’re not pulling a New York Times with sensitive material.

Welcome to FR.

Nah... all this stuff is unclass:

these are Navy versions of light machine guns that we are using in the Regiment.... much lighter to carry but just as lethal MK46 = new M249 SAW
MK48 = new M240B

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WbGydFbgNkA&feature=related
this is going to replace the M4... much easier to clean and a much more reliable weapon

I figured you had good sense, or you wouldn’t be here... but these days it doesn’t hurt.

Once again, welcome to FR.
