If you ever stumble across a copy of Patches Watson's Point Man there is a chapter about some of the experimental weapons the SEALs tried.

OK, bonus points.
Pmag to you if you want it. Shoot me an address.
My mess up, I meant Mark Zuckerburg, berg, whatever, by "Markymark", guess I'm the only one that calls him that.

Nice pic, even if he is standing straighter and has bigger forearms than before. The Carcano looks a couple decades newer, also.
Is your fake picture fake?

A rabbit hole to go down is the two Oswalds conspiracy. Lee and Harvey. Would explain a lot of conflicting information. Who knows?

Don't tell me: the guy on the left goes/went by "Butch".

Where can one read some more on those 50 round mags?

I'm thinking the Rhodesians- particular their SF- would have killed for CARs/XM-177s and reliable 50 rounders.
