Since the Army has Cut the  XM806 ( replacement for the M2 .50cal)




















I was wondering about the progress of the M249 replacement  the LSAT LMG (Light Weight Small Arms Technologies)  the last thing I read  about it was a PDF file released called "the epilogue "  










dated May 16 2012  stating that it  was on TRL (technology readiness level) was at 7 out of 9















I'd hate to see this thing get the Axed  since this is only serious development in small arms technology  in a REALLLY long time........Piston guns , with polymer receivers and ambi controls don't count....
















So does anyone have any real updates ???





old videos  with some LSAT Shooting

The reduction in weight compared to other belt fed LMGs seems impressive.
