As the XM8 is sex itself? Better than M4/416/SCAR? Its a G36 in ubersexi clothing really...

Just because its not in use in the real world doesnt make it useless, its brilliant for futuristic scenarios/rogue units/whatever you put your imagination to...

poor boy

tar 21 is alot more sexy the xm8 is known as the fish !!! mags are to big for military use especialy when you consider how many rounds they cary, best thing about the weapon was the weight like the G36 range the ballance and weight is better suited for women.

check the tar 21 out

IDF have some of the most original kit and most used equipment in the world.



(edited as original post was a bit rushed as i had to shoot of to take daughter to school lol)

 

[Mr Evil]

they do ask where will we go next with weapons, case less ammo is possably the next move so magazines can be lighter and carry more ammo, if a mag could carry more ammo the ROF could go up.

whats needed is a variable velocity weapon with variable ROF and large lightweight magazine capacity !!!

is this the future ? somthing you could make at home ?

Oh, and there are some XM29 models over at War Foundry's Streets Violence series. Look up Yossa Boneheads and Backstreet Militia.
