Try hitting the PAV with an RPG if it is small and moving! My reasons for saying a PAV by definition should be small and light. Worry about small arms with some blast protection for mines. Keep it... |

The primary methods that are currently used to defeat the newer shaped charges are: 1. Standoff grates - these have been applied to many Strikers and cause the round to detonate at a further... |

I've had some thoughts about the PAV idea: 1. Go cart style frame with large off-road wheels rather than ATV frame to keep profile lower. 2. Light armor only needs to stop 5.56 & 7.62x39. The... |

From what I understand, the rifle kit includes a case and accessories rather than just the lower and upper. To me, still seems like a large markup for the additional items you get - I'd go with the... |

I guess you could say the existing ACOGs were designed for the Grendel (when using the right loading) :) For the military it could pay off if submiting a complete system for evaluation - you don't... |
