NATO Cold War Battle Rifles and much more: https://www.headstamppublishing.com Cappy Army video on the SIG M7A1: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n06vpf-vaSg CBJ Armor Piecing ammunition: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=90ECrL_4GPc The plan to replace the 5.56mm M4 Carbine with the 6.8mm M7 as the US Army's standard infantry rifle is a bad idea, and today I will try to explain why. In short, both of the justifications used for the switch (long range engagements and armor penetration) are better solved by other options. Modern FPV drones and squad designated marksmen are both better ways to handle Afghanistan-type long range engagements, and a proper armor-piercing round for the 5.56mm NATO, for example something like CBJ Tech makes, is a better solution for armor. Historically, we have ample evidence from World War Two, Korea, and Vietnam that an infantryman cannot typically see a target beyond 300m because of terrain and obstacles, and generally is unable to hit targets beyond 200m in actual combat. To sacrifice rifle weight, ammo weight, and ammo capacity for the sake of giving the infantry a rifle theoretically capable of 600-800m engagements is a fool's errand and a bad idea. http://www.patreon.com/ForgottenWeapons http://www.floatplane.com/channel/ForgottenWeapons Cool Forgotten Weapons merch! http://shop.forgottenweapons.com
