Two magfeds would give:

-be able to take out a higher number of targets inside a given window of time[/COLOR]
Hmm.

The M27 IAR imo intended purpose is to lay down suppresing fire but with greater precision than that of the saw. I don't know the range but it's full auto for this range and can be used like a DM for longer ranges. The only way to suppress a enemy isnt by putting high volume of ammo on them. Plus the ability to help in clearing a room due to its size.

At this stage, I really don't care whether a belt-fed LMG or a mag-fed IAR is "better."
I just want to see any kind of Grendel squad automatic weapon built and tested. [Image: machine-gun.gif]

...to demonstrate the superiority of 6.5 Grendel for military applications.

The US Army's Next Generation Squad Automatic Rifle (NGSAR) program seeks to replace the M249 machine gun with a long-range automatic rifle.
Quote:...the NGSAR...will “combined the firepower and range of a machine gun with the precision and ergonomics of a carbine” to achieve “overmatch” by “suppressing all threats to a range of 1200 meters”, all in a package that is supposed to weigh 12 pounds or less (unloaded), with both optic and “always on” suppressor.

The challenge: Design and build a 6.5 Grendel automatic rifle, and develop suitable bullets and ammo loadings for it. Hooah! Cool
