That "New" 6.8 X 43(?) round has potential - but is limited by mag and action length. I say ditch Jenny and build a system around a slightly more robust round. Perhaps a G-3 / CETME (recoil op) sort of thing scaled between the G-5 SMG and the full size G-3.

But then again, methinks that you and I may be considered a little "obsolecent" these days.

I like the G3 too, but I note with some amusement the fact that while you are advocating ditching the AR in favor of a roller-locked action, H&K has abandoned that design in favor of the G36 - which is a fancy copy of Eugene Stoner's successor to the AR-15 (the AR-180/AR-18).

Re your #119 - Well then, it seems that i'm a whole lot more "obsolecent" than you are! {;^{)~

Thanks for the update.

I have a CETME which runs great - just won't shoot better than minute of 5-gallon bucket at 100 meters.
Looking to sell it and rely on my old Vennie FN-49 in 7X57.
