    Another case of “everybody gets the good guns except the infantry.”

    They’d just break it anyway.

    Actually, it’s not an SBR. Muzzleloading replica aside, the barrel length is 24 inches. You save a lot of length using advanced caseless ammunition.

      I named it so in jest. It’s definitely short relative to the proper rifle…I’ll post photos of the two side by side.

    Should be labeled PDW. This falls into perspective when your main gun is a howitzer.
